Wirelessly posted I couple of months ago I watched a great talk on TED.com about a great new education model called the Kahn Academy. Millions are now using it to learn and they are even starting to use it in schools. Anyway since then I've been watching their videos and using their...

Wirelessly posted Mine was activated Dec 21, 2009. I'm confused because when I called cochlear they told me that the personal audio cable was not covered by insurance. So I had to pay for one. But since I couldn't find anyone that could sell me one for a used price. And I really need...

Wirelessly posted I don't have a wii so I'm not sure. Anyone else know?

Wirelessly posted Thanks. I tried eBay with no luck yet. I'll try the other. Thanks.

Yes, it's working great now! You can now watch just about anything in netflix with subtitles. Well, I've found a couple of movies I couldn't find the right subtitles for but most can be found in the various subtitles sites. Here's a link to detailed instructions on how to do it. How to...

Wirelessly posted I have the nucleus 5. I talk on the phone now every day. Of course I do miss words here and there but not that often. No more then most hearing people. Most of the people I talk to now that don't know me never know I've been deaf since I was about 20 (41 now). One thing...

I use my personal audio cable quite a bit. But mine stopped working. To be honest I really can't afford to pay $150 for a length of wire right now that they charge for them at the cochlear online store. And insurance doesn't cover it. I'm willing to pay for one. But just trying to get the...

I hope this is the right section to post this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtKTcPq7XBs

Wirelessly posted The two terms "started out" from two different things. Closed captioning was originally a term that means providing visual text dialog for the hearing impaired (forgive the term). Where subtitles where originally made for providing visual text dialog in other languages...

Wirelessly posted The app is available now in the app store. Just had an update and another one is being checked and as soon as they pass it even more features will be in it. It's called podnapisi.NET

Wirelessly posted Thanks. Your right it's .org instead of .com. But that's just one of many sites you can download subtitles from. This issue is with Netflix and the sublight video software it uses. Thanks though.

Wirelessly posted I started a twitter hash tag #netflixsubtitles also use #netflix so maybe they'll see it better. ;)

Wirelessly posted I recently learned something about Netflix streaming videos that could be great if they fixed it. Believe it or not it's possible to add your own subtitles (such as subtitles you can download from sites like subscribe.com) to the streaming videos on Netflix. But there's a...

Yea, like you said it is better then nothing. It's not the best solution but it can be useful. I was at a friends house watching a movie and they couldn't get the subtitles to work on the DVD player. So I said, "Don't worry, I got it". Pulled out my app, found the subs and used it. You're right...

The new version of the app is now out. It's called podnapisi.NET This update allows you to load subtitles from other subtitles sites into the app. By default it searches podnapisi.net for subtitles and they do have a very good selection of subtitles. But if you can't find them on their site you...
