I use VLC Media Player. It works great! Dell installed it for me when I could not play DVDs on my new laptop. I had to disable the CyberLink startup item for the Dell provided Media Direct application, because it enables Vista Sticky and Repeat Keys in JAWS. And for some reason, Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center refuse to play a DVD, because it can not verify that the video output is copy protected! I think this is a Dell problem.
Back to the point, the default keystrokes for VLC Media Player are: Play / Pause Space bar Stop s Full Screen F Volume Up Control Up Arrow Volume Down Control Down Arrow Mute M But on my Dell laptop the volume controls do not seem to work, even if I try to redefine them. The dialog box to redefine the interface is fairly slow and I initially needed sighted assistance. But you can eventually get the gist of it. You may have to tab through the dialog box and Shift tab back through them to have JAWS tell you what the combo box is defining. I think this dialog box scrolls and JAWS gets confused.
