Re: [Plextalk] CF cards

Hello Wendy. Linda has two PTR 2 machines. One was bought slightly earlier than the second one, and there are some cards which it won't take, which work well in the later one. Maybe you need a software upgrade. If you originally bought your cards from Humanware, then they have been known to use the cards for tests, and if you draw this to their attention they should replace the cards. On one occasion, we bought four flash cards from Humanware, only to find that there was less space on two of them than there should be. Although no files registered on the Plextalks, the computer showed up some files, and when I contacted Humanware they said we could delete the files on the cards. I asked Humanware to send us a free card as an extra to make up for the trouble we had gone to. Keep well. Peter

CF cards
by Wendy Sharpe 07 Oct '14

A while ago I bought four new CF cards to use in my Plextor PTR2. Two of them are fine, but the other two don't seem to be recognised by my player. It reports that there is no free space on the cards, but I know there is nothing on them. I have sought advice from some technical friends, and have tried both cards on my computer. Going into properties, it reports that the cards are fine, having the normal amount of free space for 4GB cards. I did a check for errors on the properties tools tab, and the report was that everything was ok. Can anyone give any further advice, or are they just dud cards? Wendy

Cannot update key episodes in podcast flist
by Flor Lynch 30 Sep '14

Hi, That (or something like it) is the message i get when I try. I've somehow lost the facility to update podcasts or download all podcast in the feed, on my PlexTalk Pocket. I can transfer them from the PC and can tune in radio stations on it. When i delete a podcast, the folder also is gone. Should the Podcast Feed manager also be on the PTP? At the moment, it appears not to be. Empty podcast feeds are not picked up by the PTP. I must have deleted something I shouldn't have, I think, or how should I restore the podcast update functionality on the PTP? Thanks.

Hi I am trying to change the firmware on my plextalk pocket, I cannot seem to change the uk firmware to the us version, I cannot tolerate the uk tts voices, they are very hard to listen to when I read a book, I have unzipped the files from the plextalk web page but I am just getting two folders, no exe file, what am I doing wrong, is it possible my antivirus is stopping or killing the exe file? I cannot see such a message, I have tried two different sd cards, I have the pocket plugged in to the electric. Regards Adrien

A Streaming Url of Insight Radio, that now works?
by Flor Lynch 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

has anybody got an URL on Plextalk streaming Insight Radio that works now, or could they check now, if it still works on the Plextalk? Even on the radiofeeds.co.uk Web site - a very good stations repository, BTW - all they had was a stream of Insight Radio's Freeview satellite stream playing in Winamp, which was not amenable to the Save Target As file treatment. And the www.insightradio.co.uk site itself, has a pop-up player and that's it. No copying/transferring. Would that we mighyt return to NO Flash.

Guys. I don't believe we should be selling products on this list, but if others are happy with it I will allow it. There are other lists for buying and selling items in my opinion. Andrew.
