Hi, He should direct jaws to use the internal card for speech. Use the mike output for earphone or plug your speaker amp in to it for music.

RE: Strange Problem With Ripping CD With CDEX
It doesn't seem like (at least to me) that ripping CDs with Windows Media is as cut and dried as it used to be with WMP 11; that's why I went back to Cdex! As I said before, it seems strange to me that CD 1 and CD 2 did just fine! But it's telling me no match found with CD 3! In case this helps, am running Jaws 16 on a Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit (if this matters at all) will try again later on today as it could be that there may have just been a problem with that Freed server or something?

That's quite often the case with free CDDB which is why I complement it with GraceNote and it's Player.exe. Although I read that the latest version of CDEx also supports Music Brains.

Jawsfriendly Version of Nero [was] RE: Strange Problem With Ripping CD With CDEX
I think I'm using Nero 10. I've never heard of a Jawsunfriendly version of Nero as long as you use Nero Burning Rom and not Nero Express, which I've always found very inconvenient to handle.

As i said, it may well be that CDEx can't find the CD because no one has bothered to supply the data base with the necessary information.

RE: Strange Problem With Ripping CD With CDEX
Well now...since I have an earlier version OD Cdex, would it help if I went on and upgraded to the latest version? I think (even with the version of Cdex I have) there may be a way to get the information from a different source...although I don't remember exactly how this is accomplished! I still think it odd that the CD I'm having the problem with comes from that same boxed set (if the whole set was that way, I'd maybe agree that the company didn't bother to put out the info) but it's the same set (CD 1 and 2 work fine) but thanks to those of you who are making suggestions and who are trying to help!

Re: Strange Problem With Ripping CD With CDEX
Windows media seems to find cds better than cdex or audio grabber. They seem to use a better data base. I like cdex but I can rip cds two at a time with windows media. Sometimes they all get it wrong however. I have never ripped with winamp but they seem to be able to find cd titles well to.
Re: Really strange problem with winamp 5.07
Hi, Here is the official answer about this from Gracenote. Very sad, but 100 % reliable. Best regards Brian Hello Brian, Thank you for writing. The music lookup function on your Winamp application is not working because the software developer unfortunately has not renewed their license to use the Gracenote music recognition service, and their license term has now expired. I found their forum page, which confirms this information: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?t=377496 If you would like to continue accessing Gracenote's music recognition service, you can look around. Other popular licensed applications include iTunes and products by Sony, Creative, Samsung, Roxio and many others. Some applications are freeware and some are commercial, and you can go to the software developer's own web site for more information or to download. I hope this helps.

Strange Problem With Computer Sounds Through Radios
Hello list: I have discovered a strange problem with listening to sounds from my computer through radios! I have an FM transmitter that came from CCrane; my problem is that I'm noticing that if I'm listening to whatever is on the computer through a mono clock radio that I have in the bathroom, I am only hearing one channel coming through! Now the radios in the house that are boom boxes (stereo) sound fine; both channels play and the computer speakers are fine! But that clock radio seems to only be playing one track! I had thought maybe there was something awry with the transmitter, but as I mentioned, things sound fine through the other radios (the clock radio used to sound fine) another thing (and this might be a connection; not sure! But I have a set of headphones that I have plugged into the headphone jack of the computer speaker (can't remember what the brand of speakers these are; Power Tech or something like it) anyhow, the headphones are only getting sound through one headphone! So I figured that this problem was with my headphones! However, I plugged these headphones into my Victor Stream, and it plays through both sides! So this tells me that there's something cock-eyed somewhere; but I don't know where! Does anyone here have any ideas of where this problem is coming from? Am running a Windows 7 machine (a Dell 8700 (hope I have that right) has a Reeltech soundcard in it; hopefully I have provided enough information for you to work with! It just seems odd that the one clock radio plays one channel of whatever is coming through the computer, when it didn't used to! Thanks for any and all info you may be able to provide! Tom Kaufman
Re: Strange Problem With Computer Sounds Through Radios
Tom, if the radio has an earphone jack, as I think you indicated, I would start there. I would try inserting and extracting the plug several times to see if one of the contacts that restore sound to the speakers has failed. If it's not the contacted may be the amplifier chip on that particular channel that has quit. Seeing that you have good audio everywhere else, it leaves you with the radio and the earphone jack.

strange problem with winamp
Have any of you ever had this happen? When I skip tracks with winamp using the b key, my speakers pan either slightly or all the way left or right even though they're still set to 50 center in volume control. The only way I can get the audio centered again is to re-boot the computer. This doesn't happen playing disks with media player. I'm using XP home and winamp 5.6.3.3235. If I just let tracks play and don't skip tracks this doesn't happen. Also, disks don't start playing from the first track, nor do they skip in order. Does anyone know what causes this? especially the channel pan? Thanks. Joe. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Strange Problem
I'm keeping the subject even though the problem isn't the same. I have Winamp as my default player, which is good most of the time. The problem is that occasionally I would like WMP to play something. When I click on the WMP, Winamp decides it is its file and takes over. I understand that it is default; however, it seems I should be able to play with other players if I choose them my self. I am using latest version of Winamp and IE6. Thanks for your help.

making Windows Media player play certain file types, was Re: Strange Problem
Hi I have modified the subject line for much more clarity as to what's happening here. What you need to do in this situation, at least this is what I've always done, is go into each media player on your system, and tell each one *exactly* what file types each one should play. This doesn't always work, but if you tell Winamp not to play WMA files, and if you tell Windows Media player to do it, then WMP should grab it and play it just as always. it's important to go into the options, and then the file types tab in windows media player and tell it exactly what you want to play, and more importantly, what you don't. and then, whatever it's not playing, you can instruct Winamp to grab. Like I say this isn't always fool proof, but it seems to work for me most times. At 08:51 PM 5/24/2008, you wrote: I'm keeping the subject even though the problem isn't the same.

strange problem with CD drives
Good morning, I'm searching for ideas on a strange problem a friend has with his computer. When he plays a CD in either drive it will play for a couple minutes and then it stops and the computer locks up. He thinks it's some sort of buffer issue, I have no idea where to even begin troubleshooting because there is no error message. Also, how do you stop Windows Media Player 11 from popping up when a CD is inserted? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Strange problem
Hi, Strange problem and I don't know what could be causing it but maybe you could try deleting it from a DOS prompt? You'd need to go to the Start Menu and press r for run, then type command and press Enter. Then if you're using JAAWS press JAWS s a few times to change screen echo to all. Now here's the thing I'm afraid I can't remember the command for deleting but if you google dos commands you should find it. Let us know how you get on.

STRANGE PROBLEM WITH SAPI 5 VOICES
Hi all Something very strange is happening with my system. Using Windows xp with Jaws 8. All my sapi voices, including the despicable microsoft voices, used to work fine on my machine. For some or other reason, none of my sapi voices, including the realspeak ones, don't work anymore. When I go into control panel and go into speech, I am unable to play any of the voices. I am simply told that the voices cannot beplayed although they are definitely installed. Can anyone help?

Strange Problem
I am experiencing a strange audio related problem. Over the last few days when I access streams or audio files using winamp all the audio is low in volume. I can go into the windows volume control and bring the volume to the level desired but when I go to another file the audio is turned down to a low level again and I have to go into the windows volume control and re-adjust to the proper settings. I can do this with no problem but it has become extremely annoying. Does anyone have a fix for this?

Re: Strange Problem
Hi Dave Why not give Oddcast a try. It seems to perform just as good as, if not better than Shoutcast, and the developer *actually* pays attention to reports he gets and will fix problems that blind users are having. For example, in an earlier version, he says Version 3.0.11 More Fixed accessibility issues for blind users. Minimize to tray is now done by clicking the close button on the oddcast window. Minimize is now restored to it's original functionality of minimizing to taskbar (blind users need it). So that's an earlier version which you probably don't want since more improvements in accessibility have been made, but it demonstrates the developer's willingness to help his users who have disabilities. I think that's awesome! plus you can encode and archive your streams to mp3, Ogg Vorbis, and the fantastic AAC plus format!! You can find out more at http://www.oddsock.org/tools/oddcastv3 and the current version 3.1.5 can be gotten at http://www.oddsock.org/tools/oddcastv3/oddcastv3_winamp_3.1.5.exe He also has versions for Foobar 2000 and a standalone version that I'm guessing you would probably use with a program like Station Playlist Studio, but that's just a guess. Anyways, with Oddcast, you can access the program from the sys tray, or at least you should be able to. Hope this helps.

Re: Strange Problem
Hi Chris, I assume that you run Oddcast and input such things as your server host, password and the like and connect just as in Winamp.

Re: Strange Problem
That's right Dave, you got it. It's just another way of doing exactly the same thing as Shoutcast, but with a slightly different interface. you do need to use your JAWS cursor t click on a few things, and if you check the live recording mode checkbox, you can then choose which device gets recorded from if you will and then if you tab over once, you get a slider where you can select the volume level of that device. So this could be helpful. At 08:51 PM 11/15/2005, you wrote: Hi Chris, I assume that you run Oddcast and input such things as your server host, password and the like and connect just as in Winamp. All I need to do is stream the line in of my streaming computer out on the net. I've heard of Oddcast but never played with it.

It seems to perform just as good as, if not better than Shoutcast, and the developer *actually* pays attention to reports he gets and will fix problems that blind users are having. For example, in an earlier version, he says Version 3.0.11 More Fixed accessibility issues for blind users. Minimize to tray is now done by clicking the close button on the oddcast window. Minimize is now restored to it's original functionality of minimizing to taskbar (blind users need it).
