How to Outsmart Your Peers on oprogramowanie
Amazon Kindle, the most popular e-reader, allows you to store and read e-books wherever you go. In addition, it also offers the wireless access to the Internet and the Kindle Store that you can purchase and download more e-books directly to your device.
From Kindle 2, an amazing Text-To-Speech, generally abbreviated as TTS, feature allows traditional e-books to be read out loud, essentially turning your books into audio books. The TTS function will also allow you to listen to an audio version of magazines, newspaper articles, documents and even blogs. More and more Kindle programy users realized it's a very useful function of the Kindle.
Regrettably, there are several limitations on the Kindle's TTS feature.
1. Not every book on your Kindle can be read aloud because publishers may disable the feature for their books.
2. The quality of the voices is not very good. We expect humanlike natural-sounding voices, but the Kindle's voices are robotic.
3. There are only two voices available for selection: a male and a female voice.
4. No voices of other languages except English.
5. It's inconvenient for long-term users of PC.
Fortunately, there is a similar Text-To-Speech technology that avoids all the above limitations on personal computers. All you need to do is just download and install a piece of software, then immediately your PC will be a talking computer that much better than Amazon Kindle!
Text-To-Speech software allows you to seamlessly convert any type of text into natural-sounding speech or even MP3 audio files. You can listen on your PC directly or create audio files for use on portable devices like iPods, Pocket PCs and CD players.
Support Various Text File Formats
Most TTS software can open and play Word Documents, Emails, Web Pages, PDF Files and any other text files directly. Additionally, the Watch Clipboard feature is a universal function that allows you to get and hear the text from any other application.
Better and More Speech Voices
Nowadays, on the Internet, there are a large number of high-quality speech voices available across multiple languages, including American English, British English, Spanish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, etc. Most of these voices are compatible with popular TTS software. And you may also purchase the famous AT&T Natural Voices and experience and best natural-sounding computer synthesized speech.
More Customizable and More Controls
In the Amazon Kindle's Read-to-Me feature, you can only increase or decrease the speed of the speech. By comparison, PC's TTS software allows you adjust speed, pitch, volume, accent and even custom pronunciation. Additionally, by inserting the advanced speech control tags, you can enhance the speech synthesis technology to a new level. For example, in the same article, you can play the first paragraph with a male voice and play the second paragraph with a female voice, no clicks, no delay, just like read out smoothly with a same voice.
I bought my Panasonic NV-GS11 video camera from eBay and for the cost, it seemed perfect. I liked the feel of the camera, it's simplicity of use, until I tried to transfer my movie to a PC and that's when the trouble started!
Normally, when you connect a camera using the USB connection, your PC recognises the device and you can use it straight away. I had no end of problems getting the PC to do this and I thought the driver was at fault.
The answer, in hindsight, is that in the menu there are 2 items for the USB Function, "web camera" and "DV Studio" - the software for acquiring still photos from the camera. Choose "web camera", connect your camera to the PC via the USB connection and switch on the camera using the Playback mode. Check "My Computer" and there should be a video camera icon with "USB Video Device" beside it. Double click onto this icon will open up a page, where if you start your movie from the camera, you can see the results on the PC screen. Unfortunately, there's nowhere on this page where you can save the movie itself.
I searched with Google and found the answer. Many people had the same issue but there didn't seem to any answers. Eventually, I found one reply on a forum way down the page which provided the solution.
Download Windows Movie Maker from the Microsoft page. This is for Windows XP:-
Open Movie Maker and you will see " Capture from video device" This allows you to save your movie into a directory of your choice and later burn the movie onto a CD using your favourite software.
I hope this is of some help to you all with the same problem I had. If you need any further assistance, drop me an email to
