Internet radio/video broadcasting - Off-topic

I'm just curious about a few things regarding this. How many people find themselves looking for podcasts and vidcasts to watch during work/school?
I've been watching twit but I only really enjoy like 2-3 shows on there. Mainly because they all talk about the same stuff.
Would you listen to a tech based show?
What topics would you want to hear about?
Has this already been done?
Just trying to get some ideas on what to listen to.
Thanks for the help.

I listen to Nerdist sometimes, I'm a fan of Chris Hardwick.

Oh forgot to ask, if anyone here does a podcast or would want to do one? Thanks.

Yup, that's it. Shazzam is your friend OP.
Soundhound.
I use to prefer SoundHound over Shazzam but it stopped returning results for me allot of the time, so I switched to Shazzam and it has been doing a better job. I think it depends allot on the genre too, for EDM I found Shazzam does a better job. But it's quite possible SoundHound has stepped their game up in the past 6mo. I keep both though just incase only one can identify. I have the premium versions of both too, not sure how much that matters.?.

Bluetooth Voice Dial? Anyone!?!?!

Hey gang,
I'll admit, I'm a total noob when it comes to XDA and the whole world of Android modding in general but I have a pretty simple question to ask. Does anyone know of a WORKING Voice Dial.apk or free voice dial app that will work with a bluetooth headset? I live in Ontario Canada and it's law here that we cannot use our phone while driving unless it's with a handsfree (i.e. Bluetooth device.) Normally I wouldn't care but I'm a delivery driver by trade so this feature is EXTREMELY important to me.
I've tried several great roms and my thanks to all the devs on here for all the time and effort spent on them, but, if I don't get a working app soon or a way to port a working .apk I'll have to go back to my old phone as I can;t afford the $500 fine if I get caught. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards..
Couldn't you just use Google voice? Unless you don't have data.... the other thing is that I haven't even tried it myself, I thought I might suggest it other than that, I'll have to do some searching

Thanks for the response!! Unfotunately no Google Voice still requires you to handle the phone to start it as well as requires a subscription to actually call phones. It's kind of like skype that way. I just wish samsung hadn't excluded it from the original firmware as I really do like the phone other that that one issue. Problem is that's a REALLY big issue for me. As I said, any help is definitely appreciated.
Grr, I think Samsung finally got the voice dialing on the S2 and S3.... but I digress
Try Voice Speed Dial on the Google Play Store. It costs around $3, but it's something to start with. Reviews look OK, but I haven't tried it (too cheap to pay the moneys lol).

Music during coding

Hello ladies and gentlemen,
I am a recent graduate of computer science and this period i am a general developer.
I would be thankful if you have any suggestion of music to listen during coding.

Classical - something not too busy so you don't actually listen to it, but it keeps your mind open.

If there is any eradio station that plays the kind of music you suggest would be great.

This. Classical is the best background music for any activity.

A radio station in the UK, Classic FM, is pretty good as there's little chatter and just lots of chilled music. You can listen to them online from their site...
http://www.classicfm.com/
Alternatively, just get a music player that comes with radio stations preloaded, like WinAmp. You'll find something to suit your tastes and needs online easily

also relaxing trance is good, something not too distracting

Actually I listen to 8 Bit music. Personally I find metal to be a but disturbing for something like coding. But then again, that's my preference.
What 8 bit in particular? Anything. Mostly Pokemon rhythms. Sometime 8 bit remixes too.

I can listen to anything while coding. I've grown up in a house with 6 kids, so you learn to concentrate no matter how noisy it is.

FLStudio thread!

Hey all!
I'd like this to be a place where we can share our soundclouds and .flp (Fruityloops) projects, discuss music, and share tips about how we can potentially improve our music.
I'll start!
https://soundcloud.com/mbq-1
If you guys would like the flp of my latest couple songs, Id have no problem sharing them. :highfive:
Awesome idea for a thread. I've used FL on PC a lot before now but not had much of a play on my tablet. I keep meaning to sit down and spend some time on it.
When I do.... I'll be back.

I haven't had the chance to use it on a tablet. It would feel almost awkward to, hahah. Plus performance would be super hindered

Obviously it depends on the tablet, but I've got it on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (first version) and it runs perfectly. I imagine it would labour a bit if I had lots of tracks and realtime effects running, but it played all the demo tracks without any lag or stutter. Obviously if it did get slow then I'd just have to render every time I wanted to hear it in full without lag.
I reckon it would run on most up-to-date tablets with no problem at all. A nexus 7, for example, should have no problem.
Are you using it on your phone then, or just on PC?

Just PC. Muuch easier. I do own an N7 though. Might have to try it out
You listened to any music on my soundcloud yet? I would very much appreciate anything you'd say on it.

I'm not at a PC with speakers - I'll certainly have a listen later and let you know though.
Is it all done with FL?

Will do - thanks.
I don't think I've ever used FL to make a complete tune before now. I use Acid by Sony to layer loops and samples, but I make bass lines and some synth parts in FL.
Here's my soundcloud, which does include FL work, but lots of other stuff too...

@Archer ill return the favor and follow you!
All the music I make, from drumbeats to the rhythm, and the synth is all done by me. From my head to the keyboard. No loops, ever.

When I use loops they're all my own stuff. I work primarily loops based but make them using synth, guitar or FL. I did start off using loops I'd downloaded when I was learning to use Acid, but quickly started recording my own.

The XDA Stereotype. Is there one and what's s/he like? Share your thoughts.

I was wondering the other day and thought, maybe start a thread and ask other users about it. How would you characterize an XDA Stereotype? I'm not thinking about your average Android user or Flashaholic, no, specifically the caricaturized XDA forum member.
Side note: I know, stereotyping can be insulting, so if you feel offended by this I may ask to close it.
I'm not offended. I can say when my friends see me reading xda forums/portals or watching xda developer TV on YouTube, I do get called "Nerdy" or more Commonly "Techy".
The most common stereotype I would say is that most people think I can fix anything electronic. I am the "local tech rep" for my friends and family. Lol.
