Hi, power DVD has a lot of keyboard shortcuts in it to allow you good access to playing DVDs.

I think I was using JAWS 6.10 at the time, I'm now running 7.10. Anyway, I found that some parts of the DVD were played by one piece of software but not the other, and vice versa; and while I managed to figure out how to seek in RealPlayer (with ctrl+E), this didn't seem to work all the time. In contrast, I manage to listen to MP3s in RealPlayer with no trouble. I am able to use the JAWS cursor competently, so it's nothing as simple as that. I'm almost completely unfamiliar with JAWS scripts, however, so may have missed a few tricks there. Bottom line: is there an easy way to watch DVDs, using software accessible with JAWS, including being able to navigate around the tracks etc.? Apologies if I've missed the obvious, but I couldn't find anything in the archives. Cheers, Nikhil. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
