Usability for vision impiared/blind persons

Postby modeus » 05 Mar 2007 21:56

Hi

My girlfreind is blind, and when she asked about a good media player i of course recomended VLC, but its giving her alot of problems, she cant get it to play DVD movies proberly.

The problem is she cant see the option to start the movie with her screenreader (Freedom Scientific Jaws 7.10), do anybody know if there is scripts or other options to make this posible


Sorry if my writting is abit in correct but english is not my first language

dvdsimple can be used in a script (batch file) but she still must be able to fine and run it just like a shortcut.
