Hi,
Beta of the new kid is more accessible - buttons are properly labeled, yet a
few issues (some major ones) remain (if only scripters can access the API...).
Cheers,
Joseph

Unless of course there's beta stuff floating around with further accessibility
tweaks?

Hi,
SAM Encoders: major screen readers have scripts for it (I'm responsible for one
of them). As for it becoming accessible, I don't think so.
As for the new kid on the block, I sent a message to developers to see if NVDA
users and devs can assist them with compatibility and testing. Based on some
testing, it appears both SPL and the new kid is written in Delphi and uses
slightly more accessible GUI framework (TDK to be exact), although certain
fields doesn't have any labels at all (the new guy does need scripting in the
end).
Cheers,
Joseph

I'm not a programmer myself so can't comment but - last I heard - SAM
Broadcaster couldn't be made accessible due to the programming language it was
written in.
I did myself use SAM Broadcaster for quite a hwile - even at that time - it did
require some skill at mouse manipulation but Window-Eyes at least did have most
of the tools for that.

I look forward to this. I'd also like to see Sam Broadcaster made
accessible.

Alternative Broadcasting Software to Station Playlist Hep, subject
line says everything and this may be round the corner.
I wanted to forward the original eMail on this subject to the list
however the author of same - as it stands - hasn't given me
permission to do so as yet and I respect that.
It is hoped that the product will be available with full
accessibility soon, the developers are actually using JAWS to test
their product to see just how accessible they can make it.
The other good news will be the price, instead of $499 that you pay
for the full Station Playlist suite you'll only need to pay $199 for
the laternative.
Those who are helping the programmers are professional DJ'S and
Broadcasters in their own right having worked in the field for longer
than 10 years so they know their stuff.
I hope to be able to bring the list good tidings in the next couple
of weeks though someone else may beat me to it by forwarding a press
release <smile>.
