Hi Chris,
That's normal. Just turn off status messages in your verbosity settings if
you don't want that announcement.

Subject: RE: Recommendation for Those who Want the Library
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.
