Jaws, as with Cobra, scripts come as part of the Jaws install. That is what several Jaws users have told me. Brian Hartgen's scripts are in addition. Be all this as it may, Soundforge 12.5 is not working with NVDA and that, for me, is a huge issue. What is the process in NVDA to start discovering a solution for this?

can edit, mix, master, etc. I've been able to ever since version 4.5 way
back in the days, which is when I first started using it.
Anyway, I mean this with all due respect, but, alas, I digress.

Yes, I am told that Jaws works well with the Version 12 series. Brian
Hartgen,
I believe, has a comprehensive set of Jaws scripts and tutorials. Cobra had
its
own scripts for Soundforge 9 and 10, but 12 is new and Baum had developed no
replacement before its current dormancy.
Soundforge has always required scripting and I sincerely doubt one can get
anywhere by contacting them about accessibility issues.

Does anyone know if jaws is OK with the new version. I was not aware that
nvda had been tested with any version since it went mega commercial.
I'm using Goldwave here, but obviously the program you are using has a
chequered career and has been written by lots of different folk over the
years, I'd not be surprised if accessibility is quite low on their radar. We
would normally say, if you are a paying customer and it used to work before,
that you should be able to have a word with them about changes like this.
I think the general advice is to contact them, and then if they seem not to
want to fix it, take either further action or see if anyone can write a
patch for nvda, but if the program costs money it can be difficult to find somebody to do it.

Subject: [nvda] Sound Forge 12.5
Hello:
As some will know, Magix now owns and updates Sound Forge. The most
recent release is 12.5.
This version is not working very well at all with NVDA. Even the
simplest of activities, highlighting a segment of audio and getting it to
play back is not working for me. Also, my position in a sound file
tends
to jump around in ways I don't understand. Suddenly, I might find
myself
2-3 minutes into a file for no reason at all.
Anybody know of a fix for this?
Chris
