Hi. As Has already been said, even though I just started using it the other week, it does seem that 3.0 is working a little better (read more consistently in this case) with JAWS (18, in my case) than version 2.2.whatever did. I have 3.0 64 bit here and I must say it also loads video files really quickly.
The most difficult thing from an accessibility standpoint seems to be using the advanced preferences dialog. When you first hit ctrl-p for preferences, you get the simple preferences box, with only a few options. You have to depress the "all" radio button to see the huge screen of about a million options. You select each category from there using a list box. Unfortunately the checkboxes, edit boxes and such within these categories do not always speak either their state or name data. Sometimes, you will have to hit the space bar before you can even determine whether you are in a checkbox and whether its state is checked or unchecked. T Hese options are not necessarily something everyone will want to play around with, though. If you want to save your own equalizer settings however, or apply any sort of advanced video or audio filtering, they are a must. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Ferrin Sent: March 20, 2018 10:18 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] vlc I am it would seem to be a late comer to this VLC program. I have known about it for a long time, I just haven't actively checked it out much as of yet. I have it installed and will start fiddling with it possibly today. If anybody has any getting started tips to send along I would be interested in reviewing them, thanks in advance. -----Original Message----- From: Mike B.

It wouldn't play MP3 or WAV files, & it was set to play all files. I uninstalled it, & went back to the vlc-2.2.8-win64 version. It's playing just fine now. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers!

In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. 4 ----- Original Message ----- From: Justin Williams To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Monday, March 19, 2018 7:19 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] vlc I downloaded vlc, but the dvd and cd won't play. I've set vlc as default, and when I try to plya the files, they won't play. It says audio tract or video tract is not available.
