OK, my apologies for the rant. So, allow me to rephrase my post. There
are
something like 13 columns that are visible when ripping an audio CD with
media player 11. Jaws only recognizes 2 of those tabs. Those being the
song title and artist name. In previous versions of Jaws, more of these
columns were visible. Is there some trick to getting Jaws to recognize
the
other columns?

Hi Jack,
I didn't say that you hadn't written them,
my point was that as the guidelines clearly state,
if you have a problem with FS, or, rant, as you say,
then take it up with them instead of posting it here.
This particular aspect of the thread is done.
If you want to discuss it further, you have my e-mail address to contact
me
off-list.
For all members, help will come quicker if it is in the form of a
question,
and not as a rant,

First, who said that I haven't written to FS about this. Second, this
group
is a place to come for help and suggestions, right? I thought I was
utilizing the list for it's proper purpose.

Hi Jack,
If you would like to see FS address this issue,
then why don't you aim this message to them?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and Windows Media Player
I hope no one minds, but I have a mild rant about JAWS 10 and Windows
Media
Player. Specifically, how Jaws reads the list of tracks on a CD. Out of
all the versions of Jaws I've used, this one is the least user friendly
when
it comes to the information provided from CD's track list. A couple
complaints.
1. Jaws doesn't read the track number. It only reads the title/artist
info.
2. As you arrow down the list of tracks, it does not announce the check
boxes that indicate what tracks have been extracted from the CD.
3. when ripping, Jaws will announce the current track being ripped over
and
over again until it's done extracting that track. And hitting control
doesn't make it stop. I'm guessing that the current track being extracted
is flashing thus causing Jaws to announce it over and over again.
4. There is all kinds of useful info about the CD being extracted that's
shown in several columns in the Windows Media Player Primary list view
window. But for some unknown reason, Jaws will only read the information
in
the first 2 columns. That being song title/artist. All the other columns
are ignored.
I've even gone into the options menu where it says, check the columns you
want visible. It doesn't make any difference. Jaws will only read the
first two columns. From left to right all the columns are,
album header bar, rip status header bar, title header bar, length header
bar, contributing artist header bar, composer header bar.
Now, you do have the ability to pick what columns you want visible, and in
what order you want them shown. But none of this makes any difference.
Jaws will only read the title/artist, and that is all.
Is there some setting in Jaws that I've overlooked to et it to see all
these
headers? I've been using Jaws and WMP for 10 years. As far as Jaws is
concerned, this is the least user friendly version I've seen where windows
media player is concerned.
Sorry for the rather lengthy post. I hope that FS will address this in a
future release of Jaws.
Jack
