Hi Folks,
Well the subject says it all.
We know that with the QT interface VLC is somewhat accessible but things like 
access to the screen-draw with Jaws cursor is completely not available to Jaws.
This means in some cases you can access a control via keyboard shortcuts and 
make changes, but not see the value of those changes.  In my experience for 
example, Control up and down arrows (using the pass through first) will change 
the volume, but if you want to specifically set it to 0 DB and not go above 
that, then you’re out of luck.

Anybody knows of a work-around for these problems?  I’m particularly interested 
in activating the Dynamic Range Compressor so that my family can watch movies 
at a constant level despite the fluctuating dynamics of today’s videos.  
Anybody has any tips on how we can do this and have access to the controls of 
the compressor such as threshold, ratio, attack, release Etc?  I’m an audio 
engineer so I know the functions of these controls so no need to explain those; 
I just need to know if any of you have managed to find accessibility tips that 
could make using these possible in VLC.
Would also be nice if using the equalizer in VLC has some accessibility tips 
someone could offer.
Thanks Guys.
I’m using Jaws 14.0 and also 17.0 on Windows 7 32-bit SP1, if this helps at all.
Any Jaws scripts, HSC sets, or just good old advice, anything at all would be 
appreciated.
Kind regards to everyone,
