Please welcome Jonathan Mosen back as owner of the pc-audio list. I have just handed the reins back to him.

Re: Admin: audio books
Gary, you wrote: Audible.com sells audio books that you can play on your computer, and therefore, I would say that audio books of this type would be an appropriate topic for this list. Gary, I'm aware of audible. I'm a member. But, the point is that the pc-audio list is not for buying or selling or discussing where to buy or sell things, even if those things are audio. Now, if the questions are about how to play audio books or what devices play audio books, and so on, then it's perfectly on topic. Please try to understand the distinction. There are many buy and sell lists already. I don't want the pc-audio list to become just another one. So, I ask that you don't try to sell things here or offer to buy things here, ok?

Re: Audible and MP3
Only the supported devices listed on the audible website will play audible files. This does include some cell phones, such as the HP I-Pack, but I don't know if your phone is supported. You'd have to check the list on the audible site. It is illegal to circumvent the audible encription in any way. You can download as many copies of a program to as many devices as you have activated, but it's not legal to defeat the encryption in order to copy programs to non-activated devices. On the download screen, there is a link to listen online but I'm not sure if this would work with portable devices such as cell phones, and I suspect that the site might be busy enough to prevent this from working well, although I've never actually tried it. I always download the programs and copy them to my Book Port which is a supported device. There are 2 mailing lists devoted to discussions among audible users. I recommend these lists. To subscribe, send blank emails to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hope this helps. Jeff - Original Message - From: G. McFarlane [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 03, 2005 5:36 AM Hi I'm new to Audible books and am looking for some advice. I gather that the books can be read in Media Player and Real Player. Does this apply to Real Pla;yer on a phone (Nokia 9500) or has there to be some other software or codec available before Audible's format is recognised. Alternatives for listening on a mobile phone or other device using MP3 - are there any? Can the files be converted - is this legal if you're just using your own books which you've downloaded?

Re: Cross-Fading
If you actually want crossfading then you'll need some software to do that. There is a free SQR crossfader plugin for winamp which isn't too bad. There is also an output stacker which supposedly allows you to stack output plugins, so you could stack the crossfader with the disk writer plugin and make a wave file which you could then burn to a CD. At least, in theory you should be able to do this. If you have not normalized your mp3 files you might also want to get a compressor/limiter plugin for winamp as well.

Re: the Book Port
Thanks, Milton, for the information in your message quoted below. If only there was a similar product which used Eloquence text to speech rather than Doubletalk I'd snap it up in a heartbeat. I read the article comparing the BookPort and BookCourier, but I felt it did an inadequate job of comparison. It really just listed the features of each product without much comparison. Nowhere did I find much information about the mp3 capabilities of these products. What bit rates do they support? More importantly, what bit rates do they *not* support? Can bookmarks be placed within mp3 files? I think my primary use for the unit would be to listen to audio and perhaps audible.com books, so I'd be most interested in the detailed differences between the two units in this regard. Are there other products which I should consider for listening to audio/audible.com books? Also, nowhere was anything mentioned about AC adaptors. Can either of these units be run off of AC? If not, it seems one would go through a lot of batteries. I did notice that in addition to the BookCourier being $20 less expensive, it also includes twice the memory.

Ota [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 10, 2004 5:59 PM Allow me to answer two postings in one-- I believe that the firmware in the BookPort over the Book Courier will support Daisy format 3.0 where the Book Courier currently was only supporting Daisy format 2.2. Whether that makes any difference at this time is not that important as there are not many books available in Daisy 3.0. The BookPort is a product of the American Printing House for the Blind, Inc. information about the BookPort can be found at their website at: http://www.aph.org/ You can find a website on the Book courier at: http://www.bookcourier.com/ And for all interested parties, go to the web of the American Foundation for the Blind's Accessworld for July 2004 and read a comparison report of the two devices we are talking about here. http://www.afb.org/accessworld/ Aloha, Milton M.

Re: the Book Port
Yes, Debbie, I appreciate your comments. I do have a couple more questions about the BookPort. You mentioned resuming in mp3 files. Are you saying that the BookPort will remember where you stop listening to an mp3 file and start at that spot when you resume listening? Also, the BC mentioned having an update feature for updating the software. Nothing was specifically said about this for the BP, although I realize it can be done. Is it more difficult to update software/firmware on the BP than on the BC? Actually, I'm not a subscriber of audible.com yet, but I have been contemplating it for quite some time. One of my reasons for doing so would be to have books I could listen to with one of these types of players. However, I have read about the various formats and would probably want to use format 4 anyway. I am somewhat particular about quality and usually prefer to get the highest quality I can, so this would not be an issue for me. If you have any other comments about either of these devices or other similar products I'd be interested. I really, really wish there was a unit like this with Eloquence.

Fw: An Accessible version of the Oddcast plugin
Hi All, As some of you may know, Oddcast, is a Winamp 2/3/5 DSP plug-in which allows one to stream mp3 vorbis and Windows Media audio. In a couple of respects it is comparable to the shoutcast DSP with which many of you will be familiar. However, the addition of support for WMA and Vorbis streaming set it apart from Shoutcast. Further more, unlike the SAM encoders from Spatial Audio Oddcast is completely free to use as much as you want on as many machines as you want. The adoption of Oddcast has been rather slow amongst the streaming blind community owing to it's interface which is largely graphical and had very little keyboard support. However, the plug-in was still usable and has produced some marvellous results for those of us who have persevered. The following was recently posted to a mailing list by the author of Oddcast. I would urge anyone interested in streaming audio to take up the author's invitation and provide feedback regarding the following. Moreover, Remember, he's a programmer doing this in his spare time, with almost no clue about all the screen readers out there. So messages in the form of (It doesn't work for me, I'm using JFW 4.5) won't be very helpful. The other thing to keep in mind is that this guy has gone out of his way for us and I feel it is a good idea that when someone does something like this for the community that we at least attempt to show our appreciation by providing some useful and constructive feedback. Please forward where appropriate. ---Oddsock writes: I released a blind-friendly version of oddcast a long time ago, but haven't really had any feedback (actually zero feedback) from anyone whose actually tried to use it...I recoded the main UI to use common windows controls in the hope that it would then become more blind-accessible... your feedback is most welcome.. http://www.oddsock.org/tools/oddcastv2_wa2_bf/ Geoff Shang has agreed to collect and collate the feedback.

Re: copying stream url's
Tim, I know the difference between a .ram file and a .rm file. But, that wasn't the question. Maureen was trying to paste a path and filename into a player as a URL. My point was (and still is) that a path on a local drive is not a URL. A URL begins with a protocol such as http or ftp. A file path begins with a drive letter. Some programs such as Internet Explorer can detect the difference automatically and deal with either one appropriately. Other programs such as winamp make a distinction between the two. In winamp, press the letter l to specify a file, press CTRL-L to specify a URL. Jeff, the Ultra guy http://www.UltraHost.US http://www.UltraRadio.US - Original Message - From: Tim Grady [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. Pc-au I think you should have quoted the whole message. In case you don't have it any more go to the Real Networks site and look up in their faqs the difference between a .ram and .rm file. In any case, you aren't playing a .ram file, you're using a .ram file to point to a .rm file or list of .rm files. ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
