Re: JLC's Internet TV was: accessible software to view 3000 television or radio stations?

Folks

Before spending money on one of these programs or investing time in 
learning a new piece of software, you may wish to visit

tv stations streaming worldWide
http://wwitv.com/portal.htm


Here, you will find links as to what tv is streaming which you can access 
with players you may well already have on your pc.
You may still decide that purchasing or downloading one of the dedicated 
players may make sense as a convenience; but just remember these players 
are just organizing things for you and are finding what already is out 
there.
Also, with one of these dedicated players, is someone minding the store, 
so to speak, as links can and do change.
If no one is updating the database, then you could eventually have 
problems.

Most people who try internet tv of this type end up disappointed as they 
aren't all that likely to find the content they were hoping for.
The major exception are those seeking foreign language stations from 
homelands as this is the type of station one is most likely to find.

Looking at the link I provided above, I note that there are 30 listings 
from Greece, 41 from Hungary, 
Korea (one from North and 25 from the South), 
43 from China, Colombia 14, -- well, you get the drift.
So unless you understand those languages, much of what is available is 
pure numbers of stations, not stuff you will be able to use.
For those fluent in a language, this could conceivably be a treasuretrove.

JLC's Internet TV was: accessible software to view 3000 television or radio stations?

2008-05-30 Thread Bobcat 
I use JLC's Internet TV with Jaws.  Sometimes it is hard to get Jaws focused 
in the right area.  Understanding the layout of the screen helps.  I wish it 
used the control tab or f6 to switch tabs.  Instead, I need to use the jaws 
cursor a lot to switch areas.

It's free but it installs a community toolbar.  It won't work if you 
uninstall the toolbar and you can not choose not to install the toolbar in 
the first place.

It does have system wide hot keys but you need to turn on numlock to make it 
work.

Have no other issues with Jaws or my computer so far.

 Hi Lisa,

 You might wish to try JLC's Internet TV.  You can get it from 
 www.jlc-software.com/index.php?page=internet_tv.html

 It works well with JAWS and on the page it states:

 JLC's Internet TV is a FREE program for watching and browsing thousands of 
 TV channels freely available on the internet. It's
 probably the biggest and most up to date database of channels ever, and 
 users are able to submit, rate and flag channels. And with
 the new flagging and rating system you'll easily see which channels works 
 and which is worth to watch and our goal is to bring you
 the best online TV experience out there!

 Regards,
 Barry Chapman

 Hi everyone,

 I had a sighted friend who showed me a program that allows you to view 
 3000
 television and radio stations around the world. I think this is really 
 cool.
 Does anyone know of an accessible software that would work with JAWS in
 viewing many of these channels? He says that the program he installed on a
 laptop computer is only usable with a mouse and not a keyboard. Any
 suggestions?
 Thanks for your assistance in this area.

 Sincerely,
