When it comes to the BBC and iplayer, it is a no go with screen readers.
It is not accessible.

OK.  Here's the link to last Sunday's Songs of Praise:-

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b07gnddb/songs-of-praise-12062016

Another one I want to play is last Friday's episode of Doctors, the link to this is:-

Will be interested in what you find.

Thanks,

Andrew

Can I have a link to an example of a program you're trying to get to
play please?

That's interesting James.  I'm afraid that doesn't work for me in either
Internet Explorer or Firefox.  I can't get any programmes to play at all.

Hi,

Oddly I've found that pressing enter on the media player heading often
seems to work.

Hi,



Please excuse the cross posting, but are there any JAWS users out there
who
regularly watch programmes from the bBC iPlayer?  For some reason I am
unable to find the play button once I have loaded my episode of choice.
Has
anyone else found this problem and if so do you know how this can be
remedied?



Many thanks,



Andrew
