Hey. VLC is nothing like iTunes. It doesn't work in remotely the same way, I think, although actually my knowledge of iTunes is quite sketchy. I've always avoided it.
The way I do things, is that I have each artist in my music folder divided into subfolders, which contain albums. I don't' use VLC for music, but I use Winamp for that purpose and it essentially can work the same. I can add as many folders to a playlist as I like, or just play a single folder, or a single file -- all through file explorer in windows. VLC doesn't have any knowledge of the files on your computer. It just plays what you tell it to play. I don't know about exporting files from iTunes, because I don't know what sort of files they are, if they're copy-protected, or anything. I just got the impression that iTunes mucks about with your file system, which I didn't like, so I stayed far away. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Casanave Sent: March 1, 2018 7:59 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] VLC Media Player 3.0 Thanks again Casey, Is there a straight forward process for transferring the 3000+ songs I have in Itunes into the VLC Media Player?

I generally only use it for videos, though. However you can make playlists with VLC, import folders using the file explorer context menu, etc. It pretty much plays any format you can think of, without the need to download codecs. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Casanave Sent: March 1, 2018 7:12 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] VLC Media Player 3.0 Thanks for the update... does this media player handle audio well too? I'm about ready to eject ITunes from my digital life forever.

Some may remember I made several posts about how great this player was, but that certain things, like the advanced preferences dialog, were difficult to use with a screen-reader. I just want to report that I have installed the last stable build, 3.01 I believe, and not only does the player seem at least twice as fast to load on my Windows 10 64 bit machine, but the preferences screen is reading properly with JAWS. The advanced preferences now show as a tree view, and so far I no longer have to hit space on a checkbox to even hear whether it is a checkbox or not. So, good news for video users.
