[QUOTE="nallan, post: 46142, member: 19604"] [b]speech enabling mp interface for the blind[/b] I've been reading with some interest this thread. I'm totally blind and am currently on a quest to find a pvr application that is actually useable by a totaly blind computer user. Unfortunately due to the interface all these pvr applications use, the screen reader which provides a speech feedback interface don't seem to be able to read items as you arrow through them. Would a speech plugin for mp be able to do this? The standard screen reader "jaws" is capable of reading any actual text on screen. If anyone is interested you can download a fully functional demo from [url]http://www.freedomscientific.com[/url] It would be prefered that jaws handle the speech, but a speech plugin that would allow navigation around the application would help a lot. What do people think. is a speech plugin for navigation a possibility? is it even possible? [/QUOTE]
