Ian,

I wholly agree, not only should simple commands as that be simple and constant, 
but also the BBC have a duty to ensure that all aspects of I player are 
accessible. Who do they think they are to launch a technology service for the 
audience facing public without first ensuring that all of it is accessible, 
audio description is incorporated and so on?

I think we should start a campaign to petition the board of trustees, it is not 
acceptable in this day and age.

  We shouldn't need to get a sighted person to do something as basic as adjust 
the volume This is ridiculous.

    I had a similar experience and solved the problem by getting a sighted 
person to adjust the volume control on the IPlayer website.
    Hope this might help.

      I thought i had cracked it and the sound was much better than the old 
Real player system. However, today I tried to listen to The Jungle Book and 
yesterday's Archers. It appeared to be playing but not a sound could I hear. I 
can't think of anything I have done. Am I alone?
