Hi!
I've written about Airfoil on list before so just to summarise, Airfoil
is a piece of software which allows the streaming of audio/video from
the computer it is running on. This content can then be received by
another computer or IOS4 device running Airfoil Speakers, an Airport
Express, Apple TV and so on.
The Airfoil software for the Mac is accessible right out of the box but
the same cannot be said regarding Airfoil for Windows.
I have found ways with Window-Eyes to make the software usable and I did
this by reclassing the "custom controls" to "Trackbars", now when you
use the "Tab" key to move about the Screen Reader will tell you where
the focus is.
Suppose for example you have Airfoil Speakers running on your Iphone and
you're tabbing around in Airfoil on your computer, WE will announce your
Iphone by the name you've given it in Airfoil Speakers on that device,
at that point just press the spacebar and transmission of the
audio/video from your computer is started to your iphone.
The source menu is perfectly accessible and you know when focus is there
so you can set the source of audio/video to be transmitted.
I know a lot of you use JAWS, not sure of procedures here as I don't use
JAWS though I'm sure that JAWS users will be able to adapt what I've
written to suit their needs.
You can download a trial of Airfoil and Airfoil Speakers from
