Hi All,

I was very excited to get the YouTube instructions below, but I cannot get them to work. I am running the latest JAWS and Internet Explorer, Windows 7, 32 bit. I tried both turning off the insert z virtual cursor, and also using the insert f3 pass through, but there was no response from the j, k, or l keys. Any suggestions?

Matthew Bullis posted this very useful information on another list. I've confirmed his instructions work, and I thought I'd post them here.

There are keyboard shortcuts built into Youtube. If you turn off the virtual cursor, meaning you can't then use first letter navigation keys, you can then use the letters j k and l to rewind, play/pause, and fast forward. If it's Jaws, the keystroke to turn off the virtual cursor is insert Z, and again to turn it back on. However, if you're listening to a YouTube and all you really want to do is pause and get up from your seat for a break, then use the pass through key, which in Jaws is insert 3 on the number row. This lets Jaws ignore the next key press, so you could just press K to pause the video. Then when you're ready, use the pass through key again and type K to resume playing.
