That hasn’t been my experience, though granted I don’t watch described movies all that often and so the number of subtitled ones I tried were very small. Some movies simply don’t have enough quiet par

HI. I read the subtitles on a braille display. It isn't automatic so it means I have to really concentrate on followign the dialogue with my ears as well as my fingers even if I can't understand the l

Hey. I go on the internet and find a file with an extension .srt that is a a text-based subtitle file. You can find them for a great many movies, but probably not newer netflix stuff. There are databa

Hi. I just started using uBlock Origin, which was already mentioned. I think it is working pretty well and have noticed it block a few things. It seems configurable through a standard web-based menu.

I haven’t figured this out. I thought there was only the one big button, which some people seem to call a “power” button, maybe because of the way it looks? Anyway, I need to spend some more time with

Hi. I will give this a try. My NVDA instalation appears to be broken at the moment, but once I fix that..*grins*

Brian, that makes sense; I thought it must be something like that, I was just leary of using the term “power button” without any sort of context for what that meant.

In addition to what you mentioned above, geography can also be a factor in determining what site you "get" to view. Some redirect according to IP address. I think Amazon used to do this, though it doe

I used MIRC very successfully with JAWS until recently; I think it would work well with NVDA too, but you’d probably want to use screen review a lot.

Of course, with any software, but especially something like a torrent client, it’s always advisable to know both the implications fo what you are getting into, and how said software works. I don’t kno

You got your answer. This topic made me laugh for some reason. I'm sure sometimes these lists cause a lot of facepalming. :P

The problem I found with the 1core voices was that there was always a really long pause between sentences, and a shorter but still annoying pause after commas. I was able to get rid of this by editing

I noticed this started happening with the new firefox update. Can’t be a coincidence, then. I must say I prefer it this way, but there probably still is a way to get it to autoplay.

There have been a lot of messages on the list about this, but the explanation seems to be that firefox does not autoplay by default. This change is welcome by many of us, including me. As for internet

Just curious, but why wouldn't one use goldwave 6? Maybe if you were still on XP, I could understand sticking with an old version -- in that case you can no longer keep NVDA up to date either. I am us

Hi. I'm not arguing, but I wonder if you could explain this? I work with both .wav and .mp3 files using version 6.31 of this programme, and although I don't use all features, it works as well or bette

I just came to this thread now because I’m one of the idiots who reads the messages in his inbox backwards, but that was a pretty interesting post. I understand the anger but the “log of misbegotten t

I asked this question too. What are we missing?

Hi Robert. Thanks for passing this on, looks both useful and interesting. Maybe time to actually give Reaper a shot.
