Mary,
In my previous post, I said that I didn't have any experience setting up
Media Center in Windows 7; now I do. Sighted assistance would definitely be
preferred, but if none is available, I would suggest that the NVDA screen
reader would be the best choice for tackling the setup screens. I didn't
get anything with Window-Eyes. the OCR in JAWS for Windows 13 did give me
some usable text, but having to Use OCR on every screen gets rather tedious.
NVDA seems to read the setup screens pretty well, but you do need to know
how to get it to speak the necessary information.
Once set up, you can use your screen reader of choice to access the Program
Guide. I just press Spacebar to get a particular channel in the Guide to
play or pause. Page Up and Page Down can be used to change channels.
I'm enjoying having TV on my computer. I'll have to check out the recording
features next.

Oh, there is no way I'm paying that much for a tv app. Forget it. Do
you have experience with the Win media set up under win 7, Gary?
