[bcab] Re: How do I stop Freecorder from picking up Jaws snippets?

Hi Dave,

pardon my ignorance, but please can you remind me where I should find Volume 
control?  is this part of the Freecorder programme or part of my systems 
settings.  Keystroke commands will be helpful.

Thanks,
Clive

  You'll probably have this problem whichever program you use. When recording, 
you've probably got your sound card set to record What you hear.
  You need to go into volume control to check whether this is the case, and you 
may get away with setting it to wav. If you record what you hear, then jaws 
will be recorded, as it captures any sound from your sound crd.

    Hi all,

    I am using Freecorder to record listen again programmes from the BBC.  I'm 
getting the programms, but it's also capturing and saving loads of unwanted 
files, containing small chunks of Jaws speech.  Thankfully, I usually get the 
programme I want, but I have to fish for it among several hundred downloads.  
How do I set the programme so that I can get the programme I want to record, 
but can also use Jaws to multi-task, without the Jaws speech snippets  landing 
in my inbox.  I also have to say that when I activate Freecorder by selecting 
"Record" from the toolbar, I get a dialog box but can't see the question it's 
trying to ask me, whether I'm in Jaws or PC mode.

    Final question: if this is going to be a recurring problem with Freecorder, 
can anybody  recommend a more blind-user-friendly programme to do the same job?

    Thanks,
    Clive
