Re: MP3 download confusion

Winamp works well with Jaws.  I use it all the time as my primary player.  For 
further, there is a list for blind users of Winamp you might want to consult 
for help.  There, you can find out more than you ever want to know about how to 
use Winamp as a blind person.  Don't use modern skins; but, instead, the 
classic skin.  Also, these keys may help when using Winamp with Jaws:

1.  to go back a file, press z
2.  To start a file playing, press x
3.  To pause a file, press c
4.  to  stop a file, press v
5.  to go to the next file, press b

To move from one window to another, use control+tab.  HTH.

Is there a way to get it to activate Windows Media Player instead of winamp?  
Or, is there a way to get winamp to work decently with Jaws?  

Thanks

you can't change it.  it depends on whether the site owner gives you access to 
the .mp3 file itself; which, I gather from your description, it does not.  
Here's what I think is happening.  The Winamp play list file is being used to 
call up the actual .mp3 file.  In other words, the Winamp play list file, 
(which is going to be either a .m3u or a .pls play list file) was written in 
such a way that when ever it's called up by the visitor to the sight, it uses 
information written in it about exactly where the actual .mp3 file is on the 
server and calls it up.  But, all you have access to, in such a case as this, 
is the play list file and not the actual file itself.  Therefore, it's not a 
problem with your computer or Jaws; rather, it's determined by how ever the 
site owner wants you to have access.  In some cases you may have access to the 
mp3 file directly; but, in other cases, not.  HTH.

Hi,

I want to download an MP3 file.  When I select "save target as" the file I am 
told I will download is a winamp playlist and not the MP3 file.  When I go 
ahead and let winamp play the file I am told it is an MP3 file.  

How do I change this to download the MP3 file and not a winamp laylist file?

Thanks,
Ralph
