Christopher and list: Amen! If it ain't broke, don't fix it! I've never
tried Foover (I've no doubt that it's probably a good player) but I so far
have had good luck with Winamp, so why would I want to change? What does
Foover do that Winamp doesn't? I guess what I'm saying is: if I felt the
need to go with a different player, I'd probably give this "Foover a try.
But currently, Winamp seems to work okay for me!

Well, I totally disagree with this statement. Maybe I hang around with
particularly cautious sighted people or particularly adventurous blind
people, but I don't find blind computer users any more reluctant to try
new applications than sighted people. IMHO, this is a dangerous
stereotype, maybe caused by spending more time on blindness related
mailing lists than mailing lists frequented by the general public.
That being said, I also don't blame anyone who is happy with what
they're using and isn't looking to change. "If it isn't broken, don't
fix it." I used to spend all of my time looking for a better media
player, but then I decided I'd rather spend my time listening to music
than playing around with the various accessibility foibles of the
different media players out there.

Hi!
Yes i totally agree with you.
Sometimes i think blind people are more afraid of security risks and
taking risks at all with their computers.
Personally i have tried several programs for windows on this machine
with mixed results.
Some programs work some don't.
However foobar is the greatest player i've tried.

By now you would think somebody would have done something. I think
it's because people who are blind stick to there one or two programs
and don't like to explore and try hnew things. If they only knew that
foobar is one of the best media players out there.
I'm sure it doesn't need to be a very detailed set file since the only
thing W E won't read is the main list view everything else is
accessible already.
,sigh.

Hi!
Its a shame its not working with we.
I have had the same problems as you.
Suggest that you tell the devs of we to make a set file for it.
Hal and nvda also works great with it.

Hi. I'm trying to use foobar with window-eyes and for some strange
reason it is not working. Anyone have any ideas on how to make this
wonderful audio program work with WE?
Jfw seems okay with it but I don't own a current version that works
with windows 7. The only thing that doesn't work is the main
playlist listview. Any techys out there got ani idea on what I can
do to make this happen?
TIA
