Speaking of, those folks are supposed to have a hot new edition with a resume function and better Blu-ray handling. I don't remember if I read about it in PCWorld or saw it somewhere else, but a trip to their Website produced only the same version I've seen for a year and a half. Is this new version vaporware, or did I just not look hard enough?

Cc: Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D. Subject: RE: getting audio to play on default player Thanks. I'll try it. I have Windows 7 Professional. Yes, it is strange. My earlier computer was Windows 7 64 bit, and wmp was on it and worked fine; the keyboard started malfunctioning in a way that couldn't be resolved so it had to go to the place where computers that don't work live. This new computer is a company computer, so maybe they did something. On this new machine, it didn't even have the correct driver of the touchpad, and I couldn't even turn the darn thing off until we figured out what the problem was and downloaded the correct driver for the touchpad. When VLC cam up, I couldn't get anything to speak to me. I'll try again, though. It sounds promising.

Cc: Brad Martin Subject: Re: getting audio to play on default player Not sure why you found VLC to be inaccessible. I love it! It plays almost anything. Perhaps this list of shortcut keys for VLC will help you: https://wiki.videolan.org/Hotkeys_table/ Still that's weird that you don't have and can't have Windows Media Player. I have it, although if you have Windows 7 Starter, that could explain a lot. Brad On 5/8/2015 10:17 PM, Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D. via Jfw wrote: > Thanks.
