Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
Thats a point actually. itunes does use gracenote if you have an i device. You will have to convert the music to mp3, it does not do ogg or flack sadly. However all tracks are numbered. if you get winlame which is for now malware free at least the 2010 version is Sadly I do think this is a dead project but it should do ogg to 500kbps mp3 to 320kbps wav, I am not sure about flack but anyway. The other thing you can do is buy goldwave or get audacity which is free but not full with malware just yet. Its ogg encoder has been known to have issues but who knows if its still like that now.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
Well they all get adds now days. dvdvideosoft had lots of em. A lot of these projects on sourceforge are full of malware. I don't think sourceforge projects travel well. audacity and 7zip are ok for the moment though. But others have gone off the map, unless you get some big sponsors and with the echonomy situation as it has been opensource does not pay the bills. Right now the only way to handle this is donate cash or time to whatever projects you have. the reason audacity and 7zip are probably ok for now is because they are getting donations and maybe have large communities maybe sponsors with big pockets. Its why we must take care of the projects we love. Before the malware thing came in and this was a few years ago projects either stopped or just went silent. look at draggonunpacker 5 or winlame, both are not updated in ages. look at izarc, its full of malware now to. Then look at things like powerarchiver, it was free now it isn't. Point is opensource is really great, its not a lifetime fund making venture which is what I think a lot have realised and may still are realising. Truth is that free doesn't pay the bills, adds do, malware does, spam does, scams do, actually selling it does, anything else bar free. A good way to describe this is the free net revolution in new zealand or the rest of the world. I know for a fact we had free net for a couple years, done off the back of big communications companies. I know for a fact that even with advertising, quality was poor, and eventually it was not worth keeping it free, so it died. If your project is full of malware, chances are its not getting the funds it needs. Chances are that it may allready be dead. Ofcause contact those that make the projects and ask them what would be needed to remove their adds, chances are you will find out that their funding is really low. While I don't do opensource projects I do actually do university research projects and other projects for a local game company in nz. Funding for things is a really big problem, next to getting those to do the work, projects to work on, and people to test. Funds make it to just about every meeting with my bosses. Its hard all round. The net as a lot of people have realised will not make you rich, not immediately anyway and if you don't attack it the right way it won't. Ok you can join the malware stream but while you will survive its not the way I would choose to live. I have had people who I have listened to video casts for years suddenly have adds on their videos and sites, then they get videos and promos saying they really need cash to continue to survive. I usually don't give it for those that put malware up since I won't use anyone that will put viruses on pcs, I do think opensourcers and those that give free software because they want to, because the net is turning away from free anything these days.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
Jean cdex has for a while included adds, sadly a lot of sourceforge projects are full of them. Obviously donations are not enough. Its why I quit the dvdvideosoft stuff because of this. Sadly the applian stuff I heard about and brought is not accessable at least I have never been able to edit the interface for the video capcha or other converters or anything at all and it cost me a lot. It is obvious though that unless you have youtube dl-g or pontes media which while ok can not do playlists you are prity much in the poopoo. To much free software has opencandy related stuff with it and while you could disable it I'd have to potentially have a batch file for every install. At the end of the day none of the free software I use is that important for me to have adds on my system and these things can screw up the system, install malware and even if they work the software in question for me has no value. That isn't saying I don't mind software bundles especially if you can buy packaged software but a lot of programs are loaded with random stuff including uniblue stuff which is reguarded as bad so I decided ages ago to buy software. goldwave has a good enough cd reader. cdburner xp does my cds though I must say I did donate to it. 7zip does my zip files. The only free apps I have that for now are not full of software are the old winlame and audacity. Which I hardly use either. Thing is if any app above had a buy link so I don't get adds I would, some of them I did use a lot but oh well its life I guess someone needs to make cash somehow I just wish that malware was not the way. Sadly I do know some sourceforge projects have died so opensource is not everyone's cup of tea either. Nothing is for free I just don't want to get dammaged in the process of free. Even java and codecguide have adds now but at least you can turn them off. I have unchecky installed in all my computers now though.

Re: NVDA still freezing, don't know what the deal is
Also, I wonder if you can remove the Braille tables
that are provided and put in tables from an older version of NVDA. I don't
know anything about this but again, this might be a topic of value that someone
else might discuss here or that you might be able to discuss with
developers.

Maybe it's good that you tried a snapshot.
You may have comments that would be of value to developers. I believe
there is a developers list or perhaps a way to leave comments for developers on
the web site but someone else will have to comment on that further.

...What HAPPENED to the espeak voice? It sounds choppy and distorted (at
least Linda does) and it was honestly hurting my ears.
And the Master snapshot doesn't have the braille table I'd prefer to use,
which is why I got that other snapshot when I did. The newer more experimental
table fixed the problem of emdashes being replaced by eight cells of nonsense
that took up more space than necessary, and formatting representations, and
missed contractions...
I can't use this.

Hi,
The reason the driver was still trying to do
something was that I had used the old snapshot I had in conjunction with
my display to read for a bit, then had disconnected the display without
resetting the "display" setting in Braille Settings to "No Braille". As I
said, it lasted longer, but still locked up at the most inconvenient
time...
Can I have a link to this master snapshot? And is this
building toward the next release or are some things not ready for that
yet? If the former, when is the next release? Is it some time this month,
or next?

Goodness gracious, yall! Why not just use ITunes to rip for crying out loud! Is it mainly because ITunes doesn't support the formats you all wanna rip into? If so, then OK, point taken, but otherwise... really? --- Christopher Gilland JAWS Certified, 2016. Training Instructor.

Re: NVDA still freezing, don't know what the deal is
Maybe it's good that you tried a snapshot.
You may have comments that would be of value to developers. I believe
there is a developers list or perhaps a way to leave comments for developers on
the web site but someone else will have to comment on that further.

...What HAPPENED to the espeak voice? It sounds choppy and distorted (at
least Linda does) and it was honestly hurting my ears.
And the Master snapshot doesn't have the braille table I'd prefer to use,
which is why I got that other snapshot when I did. The newer more experimental
table fixed the problem of emdashes being replaced by eight cells of nonsense
that took up more space than necessary, and formatting representations, and
missed contractions...
I can't use this.

I believe the new production version will be

version if you want to evaluate it without installing it. I haven't used
new snapshots fir a while but my experience in the past has been that the
snapshots I've used have been stable. That doesn't mean that they all
are. They are versions still in development and not beta
tested.

Hi,
The reason the driver was still trying to do
something was that I had used the old snapshot I had in conjunction with
my display to read for a bit, then had disconnected the display without
resetting the "display" setting in Braille Settings to "No Braille". As I
said, it lasted longer, but still locked up at the most inconvenient
time...
Can I have a link to this master snapshot? And is this
building toward the next release or are some things not ready for that
yet? If the former, when is the next release? Is it some time this month,
or next?

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
Well cdex and a few other programs I use to use are full of opencandy stuff. you can add /nocandy to the end of the install string to get past the adds. However for an extracter I spent 40 bucks on goldwave which has a cd reader and accesses freecddb like nero 6 used to do. While not as good as gracenote and while tracks are not numbered freecddb gets them most of the time unless its vary new or old.

After rejecting about 7 screens of this junk, I aborted the install and am just keeping the version of CDex I currently have. It works just fine for me.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
Well, I just tried running it, and
after the standard stuff about licensing and where and what
components to install, then it went into its routine of asking me
to install this, that, and the other thing. At the 3rd screen of
and the other thing, I bailed out of the install. Sorry, it's
still plagued with attached malware.

In case the site doesn't throw a

latest installer, though it's easy enough to follow links on

Did it just do a clean install, or

Re: NVDA still freezing, don't know what the deal is
...What HAPPENED to the espeak voice? It sounds choppy and distorted (at least Linda does) and it was honestly hurting my ears.
And the Master snapshot doesn't have the braille table I'd prefer to use, which is why I got that other snapshot when I did. The newer more experimental table fixed the problem of emdashes being replaced by eight cells of nonsense that took up more space
than necessary, and formatting representations, and missed contractions...
I can't use this.

I believe the new production version will be released in about a month. However, I would expect the master snapshot to be probably stable or reasonably stable. You can use a portable version if you want to evaluate it without
installing it. I haven't used new snapshots fir a while but my experience in the past has been that the snapshots I've used have been stable. That doesn't mean that they all are. They are versions still in development and not beta tested.

Hi,
The reason the driver was still trying to do something was that I had
used the old snapshot I had in conjunction with my display to read for a
bit, then had disconnected the display without resetting the "display"
setting in Braille Settings to "No Braille". As I said, it lasted
longer, but still locked up at the most inconvenient time...
Can I have a link to this master snapshot? And is this building toward
the next release or are some things not ready for that yet? If the
former, when is the next release? Is it some time this month, or next?

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
It did a very clean install. The program never asked me to
install any thing at all.

You might want to be careful about

Sophos stopped my browser and said that some mal

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
For me, it did a clean install. I do have unchecki
installed, but it didn't tell me it blocked anything, and I didn't see anything
odd being installed at the same time. Of course I'll scan and check for viruses
and malware, but the problems that have plagued previous installers seem to have
not been present for me with this one.
In case the site doesn't throw a fit, and prevent
hot linking, here is the direct link for the latest installer, though it's easy
enough to follow links on the website to get to it anyway:

I believe the new production version will be released in about a month. However, I would expect the master snapshot to be probably stable or reasonably stable. You can use a portable version if you want to evaluate it without
installing it. I haven't used new snapshots fir a while but my experience in the past has been that the snapshots I've used have been stable. That doesn't mean that they all are. They are versions still in development and not beta tested.

Hi,
The reason the driver was still trying to do something was that I had
used the old snapshot I had in conjunction with my display to read for a
bit, then had disconnected the display without resetting the "display"
setting in Braille Settings to "No Braille". As I said, it lasted
longer, but still locked up at the most inconvenient time...
Can I have a link to this master snapshot? And is this building toward
the next release or are some things not ready for that yet? If the
former, when is the next release? Is it some time this month, or next?

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
erik burggraaf <erik@...>
Actually, flac support could be built into 1.5 in a number of ways, but it was in 1.7 natively. The only drawback to the native support is that it only went to flac level 8. If the new one goes to flac level 16, that would be a huge bonus.

Not true. The very good news is that cdex now has support for
flac now. The older versions did not. The best way to get c dex
is to protect your self with a program called unchecky. You can
get unchecky at unchecky.com.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
erik burggraaf <erik@...>
based on what I'm reading from the home page, windows 10 support is the major selling point along with upgrades to various encoders, localizations, improvements to tagging support, and something they describe simply and repeatedly as "bug fixes". No actual feature improvements though I can only think of a few minor detales I would like changed or added.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
I wouldn't doubt it at all that there
might be malware attached to this. The last time I tried getting a
new version of CDEX it had all kinds of malware attached to it
that it wanted to install. After rejecting about 7 screens of this
junk, I aborted the install and am just keeping the version of
CDex I currently have. It works just fine for me.

Re: very good news about audio conversion soft ware
but even the unchecky information from the
developer says that unchecky doesn't know about everything. Using unchecky
can protect you from a good deal of potentially unwanted programs. It
doesn't give you license to indiscriminately install anything. You still
should use caution and good practices.
