Re: the Victor reader stream and bluetooth
Carolyn Arnold
I didn't know the Stream could pair. I just bought a Miccus last week too. The sound, using the cable is wonderful, isn't it?

I made the mistake of trying to pair it with my phone with my hearing aids on, because I need them, but they can pair. Tomorrow, since I've been busy all day today, I'll disconnect my hearing aids and get it paired, then re-pair my hearing aids to the phone.

If you install another Realtek driver make sure it's the

Re: Real techh problem
Gene
This message is a little long, but you may find
useful comments and information.
I saw on a list recently, a comment that there is a
problem with Realtech drivers in Windows 10. But I don't know what kinds
of problem or problems the writer had in mind and I don't remember who made the
comment. I'm not vouching or evaluating the accuracy of the comment but
its interesting that a member of this list made a comment about the drivers as
well. Since I've seen two comments, you may be able to solve the
problem. Whatever happens, you have the external soundcard as an option if
you want to use it or if you need to.
and having an external sound card may be useful if
you do more with different kinds of recording in future. I won't go into
that here.
But I will say that if you solve the problems with
the realtech audio, it would still be a very good idea to purchase a cheap
exsternal sound card. If you lose audio using your internal card for some
reason, you can trouble shoot the problem and, if necessary, continue to use
your computer with the external soundcard. You will thus have avoided the
inconvenience of not being able to use it while you get an external card,
whether the internal audio problem can be solved or not. I think anyone
who doesn't have a Braille display should have some sort of external sound
card. The cheap ones cost ten U.S. dollars or less.

Re: WinAmp and Alternatives
Gene
Try the following. It may not solve the
original problem but it will very likely work around it so you don't have to
solve the original problem.
When Winamp is opened, use the command control
tab. Do you move through different Winamp windows? If so, is
equalizer one of them? If so, stop in the equalizer window. If that
window isn't opened, open it with the command alt g. Then control tab
until you are in it.
I am assuming you are using JAWS and will get
speech feedback when you issue this command. Issue the command n.
Just the letter n by itself. It toggles the equalizer on and off.
Have it on.
Now, alt tab to the main window and start whatever
you are testing with playing.
Then switch back to the equalizer window, all these
window changes while you are in Winamp with control tab.
press the key above the tab. It is the
grave. Press it, then wait a second or two. You should hear a little
volume increase. Press it a number of times to increase the volume by a
good amount. Press tab to decrease the volume. You may not hear the
change until a second or two after you issue the commands. Set the volume
as you want it. Leave the equalizer on and close the equalizer window with
alt g, the same command you opened it with.
Use control tab to move back to the main
window.
If you have never changed other equalizer settings,
the audio should sound the same but the volume should be as you want
it.

I have never tried to uninstall the program and I can't tell you how to completely uninstall all traces of it. Depending on the problem, just uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it or updating the driver might be all that makies sense to do. All the rest may be irrelevant to the problem. Also, it might be time to just stop using the Realtech built-in audio and get an external USB sound card. But again, we can't discuss the problems without knowing what they are.

I have been having problems with real tech on this computer since I purchased it which was about 18 months ago and I should returned it but I did not as I thought the problem was in the settings. I have had different technicians work on this problem but nothing has worked for long and everything seems to be patchwork and works for a time. I want to completely unstall real tech, drivers etc and do a complete new installation as if it were a new computer and start over. I want no more patchwork or repairs as I have had enough. I would appreciate any suggestions on removing real tech and installing new version. Thanks much for any advice or help. I have three computers and the other 2 computers work fine with real tech.

Re: WinAmp and Alternatives

Do you use Winamp with JAWS? JAWS has had
Winamp scripts for years. The scripts are already in JAWS.
Did you try raising the volume? That has
nothing to do with scripts. The command is a Winamp command. I
checked the command. It is just plain up arrow to raise the volume.
Start something playing. Press and hold up arrow for many seconds.
Does the volume rise?
If you never disabled the setting, it is very
unlikely to be disabled. But if the command doesn't work, I'll tell you
how to use the easiest plugin to adjust the volume settings withh and you can
see what you find as to whether it is disabled..

Subject: Re: [TechTalk] WinAmp and Alternatives How do I reset the plugin? And, to Gene's point, I don't mind disabling the volume control, but I don't see where to do that in the settings. Any guidance? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but some configurations must have been preserved because the problem persists. Thanks guys for any help.

Upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10
Peter Spitz
I realize that I'm late to the game here but I want to upgrade my
Windows 8.1 desktop to Windows 10. Is this still free? Either way, how would I go about doing this? Would I require sighted assistance? Thanks! Peter
