This is interesting, because I atempted to add a bookmark just now
before i sent the message and it worked ok.
I don't think you are actually told when a bookmark is added if
you're using Window-eyes, which is what i think you're using, right Bud?
Well, the issue is being able to find them. using Winamp 5.34, which
is the current version as of yesterday, to get to the bookmarks
section, here's what you do.
1. while Winamp is open and on your screen, press the alt
key. you'll get a menu that pops up, so press your down arrow key
until you hear, winamp pulldown.
2. So at that point, press enter, and then you'll get another menu
and you'll want to press the letter b which should, in theory at
least, take you to the bookmarks pulldown menu.
3. Press enter here, and if things go right, you should see a list
of the bookmarks you've added and if you press enter on one of them
it will play.
if it doesn't, the stream is probably either down, or there may be
some other kind of issue. to see if Winamp gives you some kind of
error message, press control plus shift plus t and Window eyes will
read you the title bar of Winamp, which will give you the status of
what it's up to. Other than that, I can't think of anything else to
suggest. so give those directions a try and hopefully, that'll do it.
Note that these directions also work for a lot of earlier versions
of Winamp so hopefully they'll work and you can get this sorted!

Well Budd as I see it the problem is either your winamp, your windows or
your screen reader. Alt-i has been a staple of winamp forever. Perhaps it's
time to reformat your machine and a clean reinstall after you format will
fix this issue I'm sure.
