Ah well what ever you recall of your DVD experience just get yourself a
Blu-Ray player heck just even borrow a few disks from a library and it's
all good. It's the same. Just even install the trial of Any DVD HD to
unlock the disks cause VLC can't actually officially play Blu-Ray, run
it in the Back ground and wamb there ya go. I'v tried the Passion of the
Christ Blu-Ray and a few others. I think I even watched Godzilla 2014 on
my PC this way. But yeah I tryed this cause Cyberlink's Power DVD is
totally unusable for someone blind now. The last real usable 1 was
version 9. Then it got worse and worse the newere it got.

I'm not sure about that. I use it to play DVDs and yes, it's very usable for
that purpose. I particularly like how easy it is to select audio stream/tracks,
subtitles and so on. I don't own any blue rays or a sophisticated sound
system...just your average 2.1 stereo setup. I've got surround on the stereo
but I never use it. Haha

Yeah I use VLC for internet radio. But also I found as long as you have
something like Any DVD HD going in the background it's a verry accessible
Blu-Ray player. Obviously DVDs too but I was amaised that it's about as easy as
Windows Media Player use to be when it played DVDs. Thing is I don't know if
VLC can handel UHD BD or the Dolby Atmos bit streams on said disks. If it can
then so glorious.

Hi.
I have no idea, sadly. Maybe you should sign up to the VLC forum. Someone there
might be able to help, particularly if the crash report contains some useful
data (not sure if you can see a log or what). I've never experienced this
problem, but I generally only use VLC for video files, and play one at a time.
For music, I use winamp, although I've been looking into foobar. Winamp still
works great, though, and you don't need to use the tab key for a single thing.
I love VLC because it'll play any video format pretty much out of the
box. The preferences screen has some accessibility issues, I find.
There are probably ways to fix this since the program, even the
interface, is so configurable. But I haven't really found any blind
expert VLC users to offer tips. A lot of people just get by fine using
it for simple things, but the kind of stuff I'm having problems doing
with it, like saving my own equalizer settings, are not intuitive and
it's pretty hard to get help. VLC is kind of one of those programs,
like Gimp, that has a certain amount of obscurity behind it. Haha

Hello, I've used VLC Media Player on my Windows 10 machine because I like the ease of
being able to easily go forward or backward through a file without doing a lot of tabbing
as with Windows Media Player; however, every few files I listen to I get a message
saying: "VLC crash reporting; oops, VLC Media Player has crashed; would you like to
send a crash report?" I tell it yes, and VLC plays as normal; I get this message
every two or three files I play; I've tried resetting preferences, but that doesn't make
that behavior go away; I use the latest version, 3.0; what's the best accessible way to
keep VLC from doing the crash thing so much? Thanks for any tips or tricks for this.
