Keith,

I don't need help with Field Pass, but I would like to know a bit more about System Access. I have a friend who is not as tech smart as a lot of folks and has been asking me to see if I can find out anything about the screen reader.

I went to the Web site and can only get a link to a trial download of the software. That is not really what I need. What I'm looking for is something on how well it functions, how much technical expertise is needed to run it and of course, how much it costs for the full version.

If you could give me a hand, or if anyone out there can, I would appreciate it.

Rich

Hi,

If you send me the link I can test it with System Access just to see if it
is a screen reader issue which, it likely is not, but I would like to test
it any how.

Cheers....Keith

Yep, I should have said that I was using JFW 10, Windows XP and IE 8. It's
totally inaccessible. I just see one line in the browser window, which says
something like NFL Field Pass. No links, buttons or anything else.

I heard it was totally inaccessible to screen readers?
I'm using jaws10 how about you?
Thanks.

I just signed up for a new season of the NFL's Field Pass. This subscription allows you to listen to all of the radio broadcasts via the internet of the
upcoming NFL season (depending on the package you purchase). I noticed a
couple of changes this season.

First, it looks like it's now using an embedded flash based player, which is totally inaccessible. I don't see anything in the browser window at all, but
I am able to listen to the broadcast. In years past, you've been able to
select WMP or Real, and I've been able to use the Winamp with the WMP
stream. This allowed me to control the player and do things like pause the
broadcast, lower the volume and so on. None of this seems possible in the
new player. Note that you can still navigate through the web pages to find
the stream you want to listen to, i.e. the Dolphins broadcast of the Monday
night preseason game between the Dolphins and the Jaguars. It's just that
once you've selected the appropriate stream, you're now stuck in an
inaccessible media player.

There also doesn't seem to be the 7 day trial period that there's been in
the past. I always took advantage of this 7 day free trial to ensure
everything was accessible. This year, I had to take it on faith, and
unfortunately I was disappointed. I don't plan on asking for my money back,
but I did follow the contact link and opened up a ticket with NFL Field
Pass.

I'm just letting everyone know my experience and wondering if anyone has
gotten around this limitation yet.
