[AI] Scripts for VLC Player
Dear List members, As the subject line suggest, kindly inform me regarding availability of any JAWS script for VLC. I am interested to know about the following: 1. How to check elapsed / remaining time 2. How to go to a specified play time. 3. Also is there any way in which the player can be configured so that it can start from the point from which it was stopped on previous occasion. 4. Can we change the skip timing from the default of 1 minute (Ctrl+right arrow). Above features shall help in making listening of Audio books more pleasurable. I am working with VLC 2, win7 and jaws 13 (don't remember the detailed version numbers) Looking forward to an affirmative solution to above said problems from our learned members.

Re: [AI] excel formula correction
Hi Mukeshji, The COUNTIF() function can be made use of in data validation for the range of cells that are supposed to avoid duplicate entries. Here's the procedure: 1. Select the range of cells that should avoid duplication. I am selecting J2:j201 for illustrative purpose 2. Press ALT+D followed by L to open Data Validation dialog box for the selected cells. 3. TAB to the Allow combo box and select Custom. 4. TAB to the Formula edit box and enter the following formula: =COUNTIF($J$2:$J$201, J2) = 1 (The spaces in the above formula are just for clarity, they may be ignored) 5. Activate the OK button. Note that this method helps you avoid duplication in the given cell range but doesn't allow other validations on them. I think there's a better method that can help us avoid duplication as well as perform other data validation - please help if someone on the list knows about it. -- Regards, Zujar...

Re: [AI] Save start up time
Hi Mukeshji, If you do not intend to use backup/restore on your hard disc drives then you can disable the Volume Shadow Copy feature of Windows on selected drives to save disk space and also some amount of time. Volume Shadow Copy is a service that creates restore points on disk drives specified in System Properties. You can disable creation of these restore points to save disk space (good amount of space) and speed up your system a little if you don't intend to use System Restore on selected drives on a future date. Here's how you can select/deselect disk drives that need not be restored by Windows: 1. Type SystemPropertiesProtection in Run window and hit ENTER. The System Properties dialog box is opened with the Protection tab and focus is on the list of disk drives available on your system. 2. Deselect the drives (I deselected C: on my laptop) that need not be restored. 3. Click the OK button. You can also disable the Volume Shadow Copy service if no drive needs be restored. By default, the service is set to start manually, you can leave it as is. Manual means it starts when required and Disabled means it would not start at all. The other option available is Automatic which means that the service would always start itself everytime the computer starts. Below are the steps: 1. Type services.msc in Run window and hit ENTER. 2. TAB once to navigate to the list of services present on your computer. 3. Navigate to the Volume Shadow Copy service using letter navigation and press ENTER on it to open its Properties dialog box. 5. TAB to Startup Type combo box in the Properties dialog box and select Disabled, it may appear as Manual by default. 6. Click the OK button. To remove restore points created till date: 1. Open My Computer or Computer as the case may be. 2. Select C: and press ENTER to open its Properties dialog box. 3. Activate the Disc Cleanup button and wait for a while. 4. The Disc Cleanup dialog box opens. Press CTRL+TAB to switch to More Options page of the dialog box. 5. Activate the Cleanup button in the System Restore region (the second button). 6. Confirm your action by activating the OK button in the confirmation dialog box. 7. Press OK button to clean up the selected drive or Cancel button to close the Disc Cleanup dialog box with cleaning. 8. Confirm your action if you chose to clean up the selected drive in the above step. hth... -- Regards, Zujar...

[AI] NVDA download
friend, latest NVDA has no separate portal versions download option. instead, you download the install version of NVDA 12.2.1, install that, go to tools and hit enter on create a portable copy. then a portable copy will be created in your desired folder. its a good option and improvement over NVDA since we can create portable copy of our own whenever we want and even jaws don't have this easy option Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] Audio Description for the Movie Barfi
I too strongly support Rajesh sir's argument. Keeping visually impaired people refrained from the disccribtion of these basic scenes clearely indicates towards a very backword approach towards the whole community's feelings. I haven't seen or to be more specific I haven't heard that movie yet, But I have enough faith in all those points which are mentioned by our seniors.

[AI] Information Regarding Exemption to VI Teachers in Colleges from the Exam Evaluations
Respected Listers, I would like to know, is there any UGC Circular exempting the visually impaired college teachers from participating in the centralized examination evaluation camps. Here in the Kerala University, the university has issued directions mandating the teachers to participate in the evaluation camps with out failing. The university proposes to take strict actions against those teachers who are not attending the camps. Evaluation of examination papers is an essential part of the teaching job, which we all could accomplish with the help of a reader. In case of internal exams, I am often carrying it out from home with the help of some private readers. But how can we bring them to the centralized exam camps. Is there any specific rule indents to accommodate this special need of the VI teachers issued by UGC? Or has UGC exempted us altogether from this task? If So, from where we can get the relevant circular/ order? Please enlighten me on this issue. Would greatly appreciate your responses. With Regards.

[AI] Navigating in Mumbai now easier for the visually challenged:
Business Line : Industry Economy / Info-tech: Navigating in Mumbai now easier for the visually challenged Our Bureau Mumbai, Sept 24: With commuting being a Herculean task in Mumbai, the visually impaired are turning to technology to make travel by public transport easier. SmartShehar, a free mobile application, is helping them make it to different places on their own. Touch feature Amar Jain, a visually impaired final year law student, uses the application which leverages the ‘talkback and explore by touch’ feature on his mobile phone, to help him navigate around the city. Last week, Jain called Chetan Temkar, the developer of the application, for a demonstration for his friends in the Blind Graduates Forum of India. Temkar said, “I had kept accessibility in mind while developing this app. After Amar’s call, I made my watchman use the app with his eyes closed.” In Mumbai, SmartShehar notifies on which side to alight while you are travelling in the train. It also provides details of the locations of trains and buses on the Western Railway, Central Railway, Harbour, Trans-Harbour, and Dahanu Shuttle. The train locator application helps you with details of the origin of a train, its destination, stations en route, the timings, and platform numbers at which it will halt. The app provides details about bus routes in the city as well. “Our application can tell you your current location without GPRS or an Internet connection. It uses location information through GPS or cell network,” Temkar said. Bus Route Finder Similarly, the BEST Bus Route Finder helps you locate all the nearest bus stops with the distance from your current location and the buses halting at the stop. Further, it has a Mumbai Auto and Taxi Fare Card that tells you what the actual meter reading and fare should be. “Since it measures distance travelled and shows the correct meter reading, it can be used as a foil against tampered meters. We know of users showing the app to auto drivers and getting them to accept a lower fare,” Temkar said. beena.par...@thehindu.co.in Printable version | Sep 25, 2012 http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/industry-and-economy/info-tech/article3932380.ece © The Hindu Business Line Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.

Re: [AI] Navigating in Mumbai now easier for the visually challenged:
Hi Firstly, it does not support symbian directly. The browser in Symbian phones does not support HTML 5 or else, the web module would have worked. It designed presently around Android. The company has invested a good deal for collecting data for Mumbai. It is unlikely they would do so for other cities. Sadly, they are not getting requisite support from civic bodies which would have made it considerably easier otherwise.
