Hi,
I use VLC media player with JAWS 17 and windows 10 and it works great. You 
have to go to the menus to get things done; there are not a lot of key 
commands to press on the spot. However, VLC media player, is great for 
playing DVDs for free. Just press alt, and go through the menus to get 
things done, because there are add ons for VLC that makes it the most 
powerful player out there, and it is easy to use through its menus. Have a 
great one.

I am currently using winamp as my music program. But, since it’s no longer

Winamp is still my default player, but, lately I've noticed more and more 
sluggishness, thought about going to foobar2000, but, that's a whole new 
learning curve I don't want to go through until winamp plays out.

Does winamp work on later operating systems, like windows 10?

Re: [JAWS-Users] music stuff and more.

2015-11-25 Thread Mike B
ne was put a place marker in 
the fourth file, and now trying to recall the place marker in the first 
file, where you did not place the place marker?

Make sense?

Lord I hope so...Grins.

What you have to do is advance to the fourth file, where you did put the 
place marker, then recall the place marker when the fourth file starts 
playing, or what ever.

I should let you know that the keystrokes for advancing and regressing back 
in a playlist are the letters B and Z, respectively.

Press the letter B to skip to the next track, and the letter Z to skip back 
to the last track you just listened to.

In any case, this can be rather frustrating if you have to go through 88 
files to get to the 89th file where you placed the place marker, so, as I 
said, I like to delete files as I go along listening to them, to make it 
easier down the road.

Keep in mind, if you find you've deleted a file accidentally, you can always 
re-add the file back onto the playlist, so it isn't a total loss.

Now I will first tell you that you must be in the Winamp playlist editor 
before these keystrokes will work.

Alt + down arrow, moves track down in the playlist
Alt + up arrow, moves track up in the playlist
Alt + Control + down arrow, move the selection to the current track

Now to move the track up or down, I think it must be first selected, but not 
certain of this.  This is where the Alt + control + down arrow keystroke 
comes in.
Since I have never really used these keystrokes before until now, I am not 
sure how it is all suppose to work.
Another keystroke I noticed was available was control + I, this will invert 
your playlist.
Once you make any changes to your playlist, in order for it to be there next 
time, lets not forget to save it.

The following information will create an html text file outlining how many 
tracks are in the playlist, the average time of each track, and the total 
play time of the playlist, along with a track listing of the tracks in the 
playlist.

While in the playlist window, press the keystroke of control+alt+G to create
an HTML file of your playlist, which you can then convert to a text file, or
highlight and select the tracks you want to copy and paste to another
program.

Make sure, you're in the playlist window by pressing control+tab to cycle
through the open windows.

One can also do this to obtain the track listing on a commercial CD.

When you place the commercial CD into your drive, open the My Computer Icon 
on your desktop, and press the applications key, which is the first key to 
the left of the right control key, on most modern keyboards, or right click 
on the CD/DVD drive you placed the commercial CD into, and arrow to the 
option to play in Winamp.

At this point, the CD should start playing.  Pause the playback with the C 
key or the spacebar, and follow the steps above to obtain the track listing.

Please note that some commercial CD's may not produce a track listing if it 
is not listed in the Winamp source site's archive, if the CD is so brand new 
as to not have been introduced into the site's database, and/or if you have 
set Winamp's preferences incorrectly.

***End of Tutorial***

From: Matthew C
Hello there. Here are 2 tips to also help with that ind depth and helpful
tutorial. To clear out a playlist even faster just be on the playlist editor
and hit control n for new. It will remove all tracks. Secondly you can move
files around with the combination of alt and either up or down arrow. Also
never, unless you really want a random selection hit control shift r. it is
a randomizer and can easily be hit by accident when using the control shift
t for time remaining.
Matthew

From: Jacob Kruger
What screenreader do you use?

As in not sure of standard winamp commands, but at least with jaws, in the
winamp playlist editor, I just hit shift + L to add a folder to the current
playlist, or else, if winamp is already open/running, right clicking on a
specific file in windows explorer and choosing to enqueue in winamp seems to
add it to the current playlist, and to clear the current playlist in winamp
itself, hitting ctrl + N in the playlist editor window seems to clear it,
and make a new one, and ctrl + S there will then let you save it for future
reference.

Stay well, and HTH

Take care.

Howdy Kimsan,

Here you go!  A Happy& safe Thanksgiving to all!

From: Scorpio Forever
I wrote this tutorial up some time ago for someone else, and, given the 
currently circulating thread of Winamp playlists, I thought I would post it.

Basically, it deals with creating and managing playlists using Winamp and Jaws.

I'm sure there are no end of ways to create and manage playlists, so, keep in 
mind that the below instructions are of my own method, and I've been using the 
below method for quite some time.

Hope people get a use out of it.

***Begin Tutorial***

Believe it or not, it's easier to create a playlist with Winamp, than it sounds.

First, go to your desktop, or where ever you keep the Winamp shortcut, and 
enter on it.

Once the Winamp window opens, control+tab twice to get to the playlist editor.

If you find that you've used the control+tab keystroke twice, and Jaws didn't 
say playlist editor, then that means you have the playlist editor closed.

You can open it in one of two ways.

You can press the keystroke of alt+E, or you can press alt+F, then arrow down 
to playlist editor and enter on it.

I think you'll find the alt+E keystroke is easier.  Smile.

In any case, once Jaws reports that the playlist editor is opened, 
control+tab up to the playlist editor.

Now, this is going to sound weird, but go with me on this.

Once you land in the playlist editor, press control+A to highlight everything, 
then press delete.

Don't worry if Jaws doesn't say anything, what you've essentially done is 
delete any tracks that were in there from the last time you used Winamp to 
listen to something.

Unfortunately, Winamp likes to leave residual ghost images of files it's played 
in the last instance, and so, in order to create a clean playlist, you have to 
delete what was previously there.

So, now that you've done that, press the letter L for lists, and this will open 
up an open dialog box.

Those of you familiar with downloading from send space, or saving as and the 
like, will be familiar with this dialog box.

When this dialog box opens, you'll land on the filename edit box.  Do a 
shift+tab to go to the file list window just above the filename edit box.

Now, depending on where you last took Winamp, you won't know where you'll be in 
the file list, so a good rule of thumb is to press the backspace key seven or 
eight times until Jaws stops talking.

When he does, do a say line command with insert+up arrow, and Jaws should read 
out, "Not Selected My Documents".

This means you're on your desktop, and you can now go to the folder where the 
files are that you want to play.

So, if the files are in a folder three levels deep into your my documents 
folder, let's call it Thea's audio files, you would press the spacebar to 
select My Documents, press the enter key to go into that folder, then arrow or 
find the folder titled Thea's Personal Files, highlight it, then press enter.

Once in that folder, find the next folder, called Thea in Hawaii, enter on it, 
and finally go to Thea's audio files, and press enter.

Be careful here, you don't want to make a common mistake that everyone makes, 
even me before I realized it, smile, do not touch any of the arrow keys, or the 
spacebar key, or anything on your keyboard until you've done a select all with 
control+A, and I'll explain later.

Once you've done the control+A, tab to the open button in the dialog box, and 
press the spacebar to allow Winamp to place all the files you just selected 
into the playlist.

There is an even easier way to create a playlist, if you aren't selective about 
what it is you're wanting to play, in other words, if you're not actually 
trying to create a playlist for a party, or just want some music playing in the 
background while you're cleaning house, or a book playing while you're knitting 
or something like that, you can just go to your desktop, without opening 
Winamp, navigate to the folder where the music files are that you wish to play, 
now, this could be a music album, or an audio book of some kind, and highlight 
it without going into the folder.

Once you do this, press your applications key, which is generally the first key 
to the left of the right control key (*keep in mind your keyboard configuration 
my be different from other configurations*), and arrow down to "Play in 
Winamp", or press the letter P for playlist, and Winamp will open up and start 
playing the tracks in the folder from the beginning, and in alphabetic order.

I'm confused as to why people have stopped using this program?

Just because it's not being supported anymore, doesn't make it any less of a 
great media player.  It just means we won't see anymore versions past the 
current one.


Is there any reason people are stopping it's use?

Just curious because if I'm missing something, then maybe I should stop 
using it also.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] music stuff and more.

I have a couple of questions which may or may not be related, or even
relevant. I am running windows 7 and jaws 16.

I am currently using winamp as my music program. But, since it’s no longer
supported I’m thinking of using something else. I have VLC on my computer,
and it works fairly well, but I miss the enhancements that jaws scripts give
to winamp. I also have a copy of windows media player on my hard drive, but
I hate it with a passion, but I might be talked into updating it and trying
it again. So any recommendations for a replacement for winamp?

Second question, what are rapsody and spotify? Does one work better than the
other with jaws?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Bob
