I generally get VLC to start playing something by right-clicking on it, and
choosing play with VLC media player, and this then has all tracks/titles
populated etc., and this works on folders copied from DVDs as well as the
drive itsself.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] VLC MEDIA PLAYER
In a recent article, I read a glowing report about the VLC Media player
and it sounded so good that I downloaded and installed the program. It's
an
open code program which will run on any operating system.
But i can't make it function.
Below, you will find my questions and if anyone can help, I'd certainly
appreciate it. I don't mind paying for a working DVD player if it gives
me
the track information. That's what VLC was supposed to do. It doesn't at
least for me.
I'm running an HP Pavillian 6510 with 4 gigs of RAM and a 750 gig hard
drive.
I'm running Windows 7 Professional and Jaws 11, the latest build.
1. If you load VLC, do you have to make some special adjustments to get
it
to read and allow the user to interact with tracking information?
2. If yes, where do I find those settings and please provide detailed
instructions.
3. I was told that it doesn't read the actual text but just says "Track
1,
Track 2" and so on. I can't even get it to do that. I don't understand
it.
