I use the TitanTV.com website. It works very well with JAWS! It can
display a 6 hour grid of your favorite channels in a true HTML table. This
makes it very easy to move through the channels and to the next or previous
show. Additionally, the channel name or time is announced as you move
through the grid. Just hold down the Alt + Control as you arrow around in
the table. You will need / want to create a free account so that you can
set your provider, preferences and favorite channels in one or more channel
lineups. There are many preferences to adjust display and text sizes if you
have any vision.
I have a DirecTV R22 DVR, which can be programmed to record shows or
download Video On Demand shows from their website. I prefer the TitanTV.com
TV listings. I have written JAWS scripts to make moving around in the grid
even easier. I get to the grid by pressing "T", to move to the table. I
then press Control + Shift + T, to enable my "Table Navigation Mode", which
holds down the Alt and Control keys while you are in a table. Press the
combination again to exit this mode. The scripts also perform a lookup of a
show that you want to record on the DirecTV DVR Scheduler mobile website if
you press Control + Shift + R on that show in the grid. Of course, this
only works if you have a DirecTV DVR. There are also handy hotkeys to open
the current page in Firefox (Control + Shift + F), which is useful if you
encounter a CAPTCHA that you want to solve with Webvisum, and a hotkey to
open the current page in Internet Explorer (Control + Shift + E).
The scripts work for Internet Explorer and Firefox. They are available at:

Note that this package also has scripts for the DIRECTV2PC application and a
set of scripts to adjust the application's volume. The volume scripts
currently only adjust the JAWS voice volume due to a technical roadblock.
If you install these scripts, you may want to respond "No", when asked if
you want to merge AppVolumeDefault scripts with default scripts.
