Hi Dorothy, I think the main thing about real alternative, and the same applies to kwiktime alternative is that in both cases the full player tends to nag you a lot, and bombard you with news and alerts and whatever, when all people want is to use it to play media files. The real and kwiktime alternative programs are the necessary components to play the media files without the unnecessary bits. 

                   John.

Hi Kevin have you tried it with Xp since I know you have both programmes? Additionally I have forgotten why Real Alternative was said to be better thanReal Player I know I have mixed the topics but they are both about Jaws and navigating to various wWebsites that Function with Jaws Jaws !

Hi all,

I've just used the "Listen Again" facility on the BBC website to catch
up with the "In Touch" programme which was broadcast on Tuesday. Using
I-Player I was able to play, pause and restart without any problems.
I'm using Jaws 9, Windows Vista Home Premium and Internet Explorer 7.
Having seen the postings on the Jaws List, I expected to have all
kinds of problems which do not, in fact appear to have materialised.
Perhaps I've just been lucky.

Regards,

Kevin

Hi Wendy and list
Is it just me or did something go wrong with the BBC Radio pages sometime ago. I know they had technical problems altogether for a while but I never had any trouble using the site with JAWS previously, but ever since it has become unbearably slow and pretty much unusable. I've mentioned this here 
before, but nobody really said much, which made me think it was just my
antique version of JAWS.

Glad this subject has come up.

Cheers

Amie

The problem now is that the new BBC Iplayer means that accessible listen again won't work any more. If you have a look, you will find that many of 
the stations have now gone.  Alastair King is working on this problem to
provide an accessible form of the new player. I am also not sure whether 
Realplayer or Real Alternative will work with the new system.

  I use Accessible Listen Again which is part of the Webbie sweet of
programs. this is accessible with JAWS and other screenreaders and can be downloaded from www.webbie.org.uk where you can also get more information.

  Hi, Folks,

  I've never had problems in the past listening again to BBC radio
programmes, but now I'm being told I should either enable Java or else use real player. How do I know whether Java is enabled? Real player tells me it 
doesn't have the software to support the programme.

  Can anyone help please? Sorry it's off topic.

  Best wishes,

  Joan.
