Here are my notes for Replay Media Catcher 5.
Replay Media Catcher 5

When you first run Replay Media Catcher 5 you will hear a welcome window.

You don't need this welcome window.
This application has different interfaces.

If you have scheduled a future capture / Download but have forgotten to run the
Replay Media Catcher 5 program, no problem because Replay Media Catcher 5 will
open itself and start the recording for you.
Configuring The Main Interface
With Replay Media Catcher running you should configure your main interface, the
UI by
Press enter key on Library tab/module
Press alt+v for the View toolbar menu

not have a check mark next to it except for 'always on top'.
This will show all the modules/tabs that are available on the main user
interface. They are

The most important modules/tabs are,

When you are done go back with alt+v and make sure everything is checked except
for
the always on top.

If you are in another module/tab please
Press enter keyboard key on the Library module/tab on the main user interface.

read on.
While in the list view you can use the following JAWS keystrokes to hear

Display the List view
Will make it much easier for you.
Choose the Library module/tab with ENTER key.
Press insert+t - the title bar should say library
Press alt+L to bring up the library toolbar
Choose display list view if it is not checked with your enter key
You have made the list view the default view on the main user interface
OR

Use your tab keyboard key and locate the 'Display List View' button and press
your enter key.
Settings and Conversions Settings
Choose the Library module/tab on main interface.

The library menu has the
Settings
Conversions Settings

The settings window opens
You should hear Settings tab
Use left or right arrow keyboard key to find the tab sheet you want to
configure and press your ENTER keyboard to make it the active tab.
Some main level tabs have sub level tabs so press your tab keyboard key one
time to find its sub level tabs.
Use left or right arrow keyboard key to find the sub level tab sheet you want
to configure and press your ENTER keyboard to make it the active tab.
For example, the Internet tab sheet has the sub level tabs Monitor, plug-ins,
rtmp, http and some others.
The Settings Window has
Library tab
Internet tab
Audio tab
History tab
For me the Library tab says checked. so I know I am in the Library tab property
sheet properties which I can examine by pressing my tab keyboard key each time
one by one.
While on a control within the tab sheet that is active insert+tab will read
that control for you.
Say you want to view the Internet tab sheet simply use the right arrow key to
find the internet tab and when you find it press your ENTER key and JAWS will
say checked.
The Internet tab is active.
You know now that you are in the Internet tab property sheet so press your tab
keyboard key to jump to the different settings you can configure.
Note, the Internet tab sheet has some additional sub level tab sheets within
it.
They are,
Monitor
http tab,
http adv tab,
rtmp tab,
rtmp adv tab,
dynamic tab
BT tab,
Naming tab,
Plugins tab,
ad blocker tab
These are tabs above so if you need to configure something within one of these
you will have to see which one is selected by hearing the word checked
pronounced by your screen reader.
For me the Monitor tab is checked. JAWS tells you it is by it speaking Monitor
tab checked.
Want to go to a different tab then use the steps above.
Start Monitoring
To start a capture of your media like a radio station stream do
Three methods
Press alt-s to start monitoring.
Or
Choose the Library module/tab on main interface.
Locate the click to Start Monitoring for downloads button on the main user
interface and press enter keyboard key.
You will hear a sound. This sound is telling you its ready to capture/download.
If you do not see the 'start monitoring' on the main UI then you are not in the
Library module/tab so do
Press your tab key a few times until you land on the Library module/tab and
press your enter key on it.
Use your TAB keyboard key to find the click to start monitoring for downloads
button.
This will enable the click to start monitoring for downloads button to appear
again. Press enter key on start monitoring. Sound is heard.
Still do not hear the start monitoring feature then do
Find the Library module/tab on main UI and press enter.
Press alt+l for the library toolbar.
The Library toolbar appears.
Arrow down to the item 'start monitoring' and press your enter key on it.
Sound will be heard.
Before you proceed to your media on the web I would tab over to the Library
list view on the main interface, minimize Replay Media Catcher or alt+tab to
your browser like Internet Explorer.
For example, play a YouTube video for 10-15 seconds and stop it with either the
stop button or alt+F4 to close your browser.
Now go back to Replay Media Catcher application and you should be focused on
the list view.
The list view will display your recordings/captures/downloads you have in a
list view style.
Playback a file that is located within the list view.
Locate the listview. If you do not see it.
Press enter on the Library module/tab .
Tab key a few times on the main UI and you will find the display list view
button. Press enter.
OR
Press alt+l for the Library toolbar and make sure display listview is checked.
Locate the list view contents on main interface with the tab key. When you find
it your recordings/downloads will show up in the list view.
Press shift+F10 on a file in the listview.
You can do
Delete a file.
Rename
Remove
Play
Move To
Convert
Save to MP3
Fix FLV
Restart
Show in folder
Properties
Cancel
So to play a file press shift+F10 while on a file in the listview and choose
PLAY in the context menu.
If you are asked to download a player to play a file it is your judgement to
decide what to do here but if you've played that file type before than choose
NO when the pop up message appears.
You can play your files through the Windows Explorer.
Where are my files?
On main UI press enter on Library module/tab.
Press alt+l.
Choose open strorage folder.
Conversion Setting
If you want Replay Media Catcher to auto convert everything to a particular
format then do,
On the main UI press enter on Library module/tab. Press your tab key a few
times and locate the No Conversion Settings
Next press your spacebar key and down arrow key and you will hear the context
menu with submenus,
Media Players
Phones
Tablets
Game Consoles
Manufacturers
Formats
Output Folder
Don't Convert
Configure
Import into iTunes
Example, choose the Formats submenu and right arrow to open it. Choose the
format you desire within this list and press enter.
I chose MP3 Default in this list and press enter.
Tab over to Ok and press enter.
Now when you are back on the main UI of Replay Media Catcher 5 you will see the
format type you chose instead of No Conversion Type displayed.
If you do not see this then tab one time and then shift+tab.
For me it reads on the main UI Mp3 Defaults (MP3).
We are telling Replay Media Catcher 5 to automatically convert all
captures/recordings/downloads whether they are audio or video to MP3 format in
my example above. So if your video was .flv or mp4 Replay Media Catcher 5 is
going to convert to .mp3 and also keep the original file .flv or .mp4 also as
shown in this example.
You will have the original file and the converted file in both the list view
and Windows Explorer.
Example,
WGN.flv
WGN.mp3
How to Record Audio
Choose Library tab on main user interface.
Press your tab key a few times until you hear the Download from the Internet
button menu.
Press spacebar key on Download from the Internet menu button.
Press your down arrow key and when you hear Record Audio press your enter key.
Record Audio is now the default.
Tab over one time.
You will hear Start Recording button.
Press the Start Recording button with enter key.
Play your media like with your browser.
Your audio is being captured.
To view what is being captured go to the Replay Media Catcher Library list view
contents.
When done close your browser.
To stop recording press the stop recording button.
To change it back to Download from the Internet button menu simply spacebar on
Record Audio and down arrow to Download from the Internet and press enter.
If you cannot escape from here then do an alt+tab anb shift+tab to go back to
Replay Media Catcher 5.
You will notice that the Start Recording button has changed back to Click To
Start Monitoring For Downloads button when Download from the Internet is
active.
