Turn off the vertual cursor by the command: JAWS Key plus Z
If it is a YouTube video you can usually do it the following way.
Find either the percent slider on the web page, or find the mute button. Do
not click the button. Once you find the button, press JAWS Key plus Z to
turn off the vertual cursor. Once the cursor is off, use either the j key to
rewind, or the l key to forward. Often you can also use the left and right
arrows to accomplish the same thing. Also, up and down arrows raise and
lower volume.
This usually doesn't work on other video services besides YouTube, however.

Thanks. This is worth a try. How do I turn off the virtual cursor? Keith

I have seen this too. Most of the time, unfortunately, the audio/video is
a flash movie, so I don't think you can actually open it in a separate
window with a media playback program on your computer. You may, however,
be able to interact with the web player by turning off the virtual cursor
and tabbing into the web player. At that point, you may be able to
play/pause the audio/video with the spacebar, as well as use the arrow
keys to rewind, fast forward, and adjust the volume. Good luck!

I know exactly what Keith is talking about. Many times, I will get on
ESPN or many other sites, and the video or audio will begin playing.
It seems to be a player that is a part of the website itself. How do you
get this audio or video material to play in Windows Media Player, for
example. On ESPN and other sites, it just starts playing, and I cannot
control it at all. I can't play, pause, or anything like that.
What do you do about this to either be able to control what you are
hearing in that website or to be able to over-ride that and get it to play
on your default player on the computer? Thanks a lot. Thanks Keith for
bringing this up! I better say this LOL, I am using Windows 8.1, JAWS 16,
and I am using an Asus laptop 64 bit lol!
