Yah. I wish the seek bar in WMP was more precise. I find I must jump to some part before I left off then use ctrl+shift+f to fast forward to the place.


I don't want to move to WMP 11. It just doesn't seem to sound as good. Tested on two different systems with good sound cards. One of my friends agrees with me.

Thanks.

Bob

The seek slider in WMP isn't that specific to do that really.  In a long
book the slider may only get you to with in several minutes of where you
were in the book originally, or maybe not even that close.

The slider only moves in 1 percent increments and the longer the file the
longer the increment is.


FS has made WMP 11 work very well in Jaws 10.  Everything is very nicely
labled.

WMP 10 does not have a bookmark feature.  However, you can tab around till
you find how much time has elapsed and remember that for next time.  Tab a
couple more times to get to the track bar and use the arrow keys to move
quickly through the file.

I'm sure this could be scripted for Jaws and WindowEyes but hasn't been done
yet.

You are correct, I'm just listening on the computer with Windows Media
Player.  I don't have any other devices.

I think she's just wondering about ordinary player programs we use on our
computers, not $300 portable listening devices.

I don't know any other media player other than iTunes that will allow you
to do this. So, in short, no is the answer.

Hello, Everyone,

I downloaded a book in mp3 format which I am playing on my computer
using
WMP.  Does anyone know if there is a way using  Jaws or WMP, to same my
place when I am finished listening so I don't have to start back at the
beginning?

Thank you,

Katherine
