Thanks for this, I don't have usb earphones yet but it may be a good idea to 
invest in them.
I will just silence nvda and do the recording as I don't plan to participate in 
the seminar myself. But will be interested in discussing either usb earphones 
or a usb soundcard, or whatever wil work best.
Thanks for all the assistance, you're great folks.

I don't know how long you can record with 100gb but you can get so much more 
time than four hours that there is no reason to worry.  
 
If you are sure that four hours is the maximum you want to record, you may want 
to set Audacity to stop after four hours.  But what if it runs longer or there 
is some sort of conversation at the end?  You may want to just record in an 
unlimited way, the default, and not take the chance of losing material at the 
end.   
 
As far as your screen-reader is concerned, given that you will be recording an 
Internet Stream, an earlier answer from someone else would appear to apply.  As 
far as I know, you would need two sound cards.  But I'll broaden the answer.  
If you have USB headphones, your computer will treat them as a second sound 
card.  If you want to use them, let the list know and the matter can be 
discussed further.

Thanks for this. I don't know what the size of the recording will be but I hope 
about 100G disk space should be enough?

This has nothing to do with memory.  Many people use the term memory, 
incorrectly, to refer to disk space.  The limit on how much you can record is 
determined by how much disk space is free.  You can record until it runs out.

Hello Hetti.

Welcome to the list.

Four hours is fine for audacity providing you have the correct amount of memory 
on your computer.

You can check how much recording time you have by pressing r for record, space 
to stop the recording, then Insert Pagedown.  That will tell you how much space 
you have left.

As for removing the screen reader, I usually turn it off while recording.

Hope this helps you.

Ron

Hi All
Is there any restriction on duration in an Audacity recording? I will be 
listening to a four hour seminar and need to know whether it can be recorded 
without starting a new recording during the seminar.
Is there a way to remove the screen reader chipping in occationally during a 
recording?
Thanks

Hettie

Hello.

David Bailes wrote a guide which certainly applies for both screen readers; 
JAWS and NVDA Attached.

Thank you for the advice, it works well. Is there a list of shortcut keys 
for Audacity and nvda?

Sorry, i said insert h but it is shift h to choose host audio device. So do
this:

Shift h to choose host audio device.
Down arrow to windows wasapi and press enter. Sorry for the wrong 
information, please ignore it.

Hi to the list
I am a new member on the list. I am also a newcomer to Audacity.
My first question is how to record streaming audio from a website.
Have a lovely Friday.
