RE: Merging Sound From Multiple Computers
Hello, I finally got around to putting the Belkin RockStar I talked about here in place. It works quite well. I obtained it for $10 from Amazon including shipping and bought several audio patch cables from www.deepsurplus.com for $0.95 each. This is definitely no high end solution but for basic merging of the audio from several computers works well. There is a slight drop in volume for each device you connect but the audio sound itself isn't altered. I now have five computers all using a single set of speakers The RockStar comes with five female jacks. Just plug whatever you want in, be that sound in or out. There is also one attached cable that is to be put to an audio source. The RockStar itself also comes with one free standing patch cord. Again this is nothing high tech but does the job for what I wanted.

This subscription allows you to listen to all of the radio broadcasts via the internet of the upcoming NFL season (depending on the package you purchase). I noticed a couple of changes this season. First, it looks like it's now using an embedded flash based player, which is totally inaccessible. I don't see anything in the browser window at all, but I am able to listen to the broadcast. In years past, you've been able to select WMP or Real, and I've been able to use the Winamp with the WMP stream. This allowed me to control the player and do things like pause the broadcast, lower the volume and so on. None of this seems possible in the new player. Note that you can still navigate through the web pages to find the stream you want to listen to, i.e. the Dolphins broadcast of the Monday night preseason game between the Dolphins and the Jaguars. It's just that once you've selected the appropriate stream, you're now stuck in an inaccessible media player. There also doesn't seem to be the 7 day trial period that there's been in the past. I always took advantage of this 7 day free trial to ensure everything was accessible. This year, I had to take it on faith, and unfortunately I was disappointed. I don't plan on asking for my money back, but I did follow the contact link and opened up a ticket with NFL Field Pass.

Anyone Have Experience with Via High Definition Audio
Hello, I recently purchased a pretty basic computer to do some Win7 testing on at home until the final OS is released. The machine came with audio listed as VIA VT1708B 8-channel high-definition audio. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this at all. The sound for music is fine but what I'm finding is that with any synthetic speech unless I have audio playing, the speech is cut off at the beginning of each audio phrase being spoken. It is almost as though the audio needs to kick in. This is prior to installing Win7, so just with Vista. It happens with several screen readers. I've used a variety of sound cards and audio and not experienced this before. If there's not a good solution to this, any suggestions on a basic sound card to use just for the synthetic speech for the screen readers?

Better Integration of Pandora and Squeezebox
Hello, I recall that the Pandora music service has been talked about a time or two on this list. I thought I'd share a couple items I found of note related to how the service integrates with the Squeezebox music player from Logitech when updating to the latest version of the Squeeze Center software used to power the Squeezebox. For those who are not familiar with Pandora or the Squeezebox a brief explanation. The Squeezebox is a music player that connects to your stereo or other hardware device to play streamed music. Streaming software known as Squeeze Center (formerly Slimserver) powers the combination. The Squeezebox itself is no more accessible than most other consumer electronics but the nice thing is that you can connect to the streaming software and control the unit from a computer, web-enabled cell phone or any other method you use to access web pages. Pandora is a music service built around the concept that there is a genealogy to music. Stations are based on similarities between artists and songs you indicate you enjoy and other music categorized by the folks at Pandora. Pandora offers free and subscription services. The subscription offers a larger number of stations and the ability to integrate with the Squeezebox so you can listen to Pandora away from the computer. Learn more about the Squeezebox and Pandora at http://www.slimdevices.com and http://www.pandora.com respectively. Anyway, in updating to the latest Squeeze Center software, I noticed a few new items related to Pandora. Most notably, it is now possible to delete Pandora stations from within the Squeeze Center web interface. Given that the main Pandora web pages do not use Flash in accessible fashions, I found my Pandora stations list growing with stations I no longer wanted to use with no way to delete them. While Pandora support was willing to delete stations on request via e-mail, I found this to be a bit inconvenient. Now when viewing Pandora stations through Squeeze Center, you have a delete station link. Activating that link deletes the station from your list of Pandora stations. Other notable integration points between Squeeze Center and Pandora include the ability to rename stations, the ability to add music to an existing station and the ability to vote thumb up or thumb down on the currently playing song from Pandora. In the case of voting, this was formerly possible using the Squeezebox remote and is part of how you refine Pandora stations over time. I'm a big fan of Pandora and use it frequently both through the Squeezebox and directly from Pandora's web pages. If I can answer any questions from folks who are trying to use this service let me know. The unfortunate thing is that as far as I know the first time you use Pandora with your own account, it still requires sighted assistance to sign in once per machine due to the way they are using Flash. Many other functions can be accomplished outside the Flash interface by starting at http://www.pandora.com/backstage. I use this frequently to edit stations and such.

Recording Basics
Hello, I'd appreciate any advice folks who have more experience doing PC recording can share on basic setup to produce reasonable recordings of screen reader audio along with voice recording. I have some experience in the area but most of my recording has been making edits to sound files I record with another audio recorder. I have a Sound Blaster 2ZS and my biggest frustration is that the microphone audio volume sounds low. I'm using the what you hear option to do my recording at this point. I have the playback of the microphone enabled in the sound settings. I also have the 20DB boost option checked. If I turn the microphone volume up to a level that sounds good to me, I get some electronic hum mixed in that I don't like. The hum is there even if there is no microphone connected to the microphone jack of the Sound Blaster. As an experiment I tried a notebook computer I have and the sound card on that is just some intel integrated audio card but the sound was much cleaner out of the box. I'm using Goldwave for my recording program. I'd like to get more into this for some projects I'm doing. I may go down the road of an external mixer at some point but for now I'd like to see if I can get the software solutions to work.

Slim Server 7.0
Hello, Apologies if this has been discussed here already but I didn't see it. Folks here turned me on to the Squeeze Box more than a year ago and I've been very pleased. However, I just updated to the 7.0 version of the Slim Server Software for streaming to a Squeeze Box and initial impressions are that the server software is less accessible than the 6.5 version. You can switch back to the classic interface which resolves most of the challenges. The main reason I updated was because now the Pandora music service is intigrated into the server software. Earlier you had to connect to the Squeeze Network. The biggest issues I noticed in the 7.0 server software were numerous instances of missing alt text, actionable UI elements no longer created as standard HTML links and many more areas that require use of a mouse. For example to play an entry in the 7.0 server software, you now need to use whatever mechanism your screen reader has for dealing with onmouseovers to get a menu of things like play and add to play list to appear.

RE: scheduled recording from the internet
For those familiar with Replay AV, how comprehensive is the database of actual shows on radio stations? One thing I really like about Radio Time and RedButton is that the database of shows on each radio station is quite complete. This was certainly not a formal comparison but in looking up a few stations I listen to/record in Red Button on Replay AV, the station listings only listed a few shows from the daily schedules. The missing shows were not network programming but rather local shows that just seemed absent. Kelly -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean Martineau Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 3:36 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: scheduled recording from the internet Mike, unless version 8.x of Replay AV has limitations not found in earlier versions, it is capable of starting a recording from hybernation. I found the Replay A/V feedback process to be cumbersome but certainly not unusable. the one time I reported some alteration to their database, i believe they fixed it pretty quickly. Now, regarding RedButton, does it record via the sound card, or, like Replay A/V, does it directly capture the stream? thanks. Dean At 01:59 PM 8/6/2007, you wrote: I, today, spent some time playing with Replay AV; and can see why, those of you who use it, are impressed with it. I too would have been blown away if I had tried it before RedButton. For my needs, at least, RB blows Replay AV away. Here's why. First of all, the underlying database the programs use in getting their station info makes the Radiotime site, used by RedButton, superior in that it appears to have a good number of stations that the Replay Media Guide doesn't include. Moreover, I observed that Replay AV must be loaded for automated recordings to be made. RedButton doesn't have to be opened and will, in fact, wake up the pc from hybernation to do its work. Don't get me wrong: Replay AV is a topnotch piece of software and especially likable by a blind pc user as it follows standard Windows menu structures. And I may well eventually purchase it. While Redbutton initially turned me off due to requiring a Window-Eyes user to extensively use my mouse keys (for which set files can assist), I have grown comfortable with the program and have no regrets in paying the $29 registration fee. Question: how prompt are the Replay folks in adding stations and fixing links when reported via their feedback system?

I have to use the pass key or bypass key option for whatever screen reader I'm using but I listened to a few different games and changed volume with keys like F8 and F9. I have WMP11.

I'm having no trouble listening to the Royals and Red Sox at present, but of course there's no way I know to control the volume.

Try tabbing with the JAWS virtual PC or Window-Eyes browse mode off until you hear unmamed view. This will ensure focus is in the WMP control on the page. Shift+tab is faster.

RE: Macks and speech access.
Assuming this person is using a newer Macintosh, they'd use VoiceOver, which is the built-in screen reader on the Mac. There are some good resources and mailing lists off of http://www.macvisionaries.com.

Hi Folks: I am working with a client who has recently lost most of his vision and who would like to continue using a Mack with speech access. Is there anyone here who can provide me with information concerning the Mack and speech access? I personally have never used a Mack so I'm feeling pretty out of it. Thanks all over the place gang.
