I think it has to do with the new arrow-by-increment feature David also added.

Hi. One interesting thing I'm noticing, this isn't a complaint by any means but it's more of a curiocity. I just updated my scripts to the new ones David just made available, and one thing I'm noticing, at least here is that when I press the fast forward or rewind keys and then stop at a particular point in the file, after the file starts to play again, JAWS now speaks the elapsed time of the file that I'm at. For example, if I load up an mp3 that lasts 20 minutes and fast forward 2 minutes and 21 seconds into it, and I stop and start listening at that point, JAWS speaks the time, 2:21. I don't know if this is by design, or if it's just a quirk on my particular system, but I thought I'd better let people know it was happening to me, in case someone updated and couldn't figure out what was going on. To tell the truth I'm not sure why it does that either, but it's definitely happening with these new scripts.I'd be interested to see if this is happening to anyone else, and if it's a feature, or just a bug on my system.smile.

Should work in jaws7 and 8. If you use these Winamp scripts, I take no responsibility for anything that happens to your PC/laptop or any other variants. In other words, use at your own risk. The only thing I will say is that the scripts work great on my machine and on machines of a couple of other users who have used my modified Winamp scripts.

Warmest Regards, Allan Wong 3M Technology ** If I said something wrong, please forgive me, as English is not my native, I'm sorry. From: "Bruce Toews" <dogriver@xxxxxxxx> I've done a little investigating on my own here. I truly want to help with respect to the library. It's not an issue I personally have an interest i, but it's important to enough people that I want to be a part of the solution. Someone's going to have to break down and get sighted assistance for this. First, register for the forums. You'll need sighted help here. Then send a private e-mail to one of the moderators of the tech support forum. Tha person likely isn't going to be able to help you directly, but you have to start somewhere. Very nicely, tell that person who you are and why you're writing. Tell them that the visual verification makes the forums inaccessible to us without sighted assistance, but that there's no other apparent way to contact the people in charge of the program. Tell the person, nicely, that there are still accessibility issues with the Winamp library, explaining that these accessibility issues make the Winamp libraryunusable for us. Don't just assume that your concepts are understood withoutexplanation. Don't be condescending either, of course. Ask ther person nicely if it would be possible for them to arrange for you to directly contact a developer, so you can help try to track down what theaccessibility problems are and how best to fix them. Emphasize that you wantto work with these people as part of the solution, not just complain about the problem. Whoever does this should be a techie, someone who knows whatblind people want from the Winamp library, and someone who knows how to talkthe computer language of the sighted. This is how things get done. No we can't directly contact a developer right now. But everyone has a chain of communication, and if we can access a link on the chain, we can eventually reach the end of it.
