(It's in the Now Playing menu, and some of the library settings. Hit ctrl+tab or go to the Play Menu to activate it.) I like WMP, particularly the facility (in the now playing menu) to increase the speed/rate of a recorded stream (a podcast or other mp3 file), without altering pitch. In some cases you can double the speed and still be able to clearly understand speech. The Winamp Pacemaker plug-in, for that purpose, tends to be buggy. In addition, David bailes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has made available for reading or download his tutorial for Windows media Player 11: there's a Jaws guide for WMP 11 which includes adjustments which make it easy to use the library with a screen reader: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Windows-Media-Player-11-Guide.html ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Jeffrey Turner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, July 30, 2007 5:12 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] how do you fast forward and rewind in windowsmedia player If the material is broken into tracks, you can go forward by using the control+F command, and go backward by the control+b. When the sound is playing, use the control+p to pause, and hitting it a second time will resume playing. This will avoid restarting at the beginning of the file every time after you've used the control+s to stop. If the podcast isn't separated into tracks, tab around until you hear a slider control that reads a percent. If you're focused on that, right arrow will jump you ahead, and left back. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to adjust the increment for the jump, so you can move rather large distances when often you'd rather go back just a little bit.

I am trying to work out how to pause, fast forward and rewind when listening to something with windows media player on my desktop. For example, I like to listen to podcasts such as that on Blind Cool tech etc. I sometimes listen to these several times, especially those which give instructional information I want to follow. I did an incert H to look at the hot keys for the program. Using alt S will stop the podcast. Alt P will start playing it again. However, it starts from the start of the podcast. If I have already listened to the podcast before, I may want to skip forward to the secttion I want. Using the hotkey of alt F doesn't seem to do anything. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Being able to pause, fast forward and rewind, will be very handy when trying to follow David's very helpfull tutorials. At moment, I often use a hand recorder to do the job. I am using windows XP home, Jaws 8 Pro and windows media 10 I think it is, but not sure. thanks a lot Jason Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
