Mine is set to HumanWare protocol, because as far as I know, automatic detection doesn't work with OpenBraille. But you should be able to set the driver to HumanWare brailliant bi in NVDA manually, an

I use this all the time. I just plug it in via USB and it works. Did you install the USB drivers from humanware?

I'm not sure. I have all three of those voices here, and I just installed them in the same manner you describe. But, weirdly, the default is always the UK voice, because Windows does not have a Canada

Interesting. What display do you have? I find that with the latest iOS 13 if the screen locks automatically it disconnects the display and I have to unlock the phone and wait for the display to reconn

I don’t think NVDA can do that because I don’t think Windows knows about the braille display. The only reason Windows doesn’t go to sleep for speech is because it’s running through the sound card. But

Yes you can tell NVDA to output through a specific card. And you can tell your music playing program to use a specific card as well, and then all other sounds would go to the Windows default. The opti

Yes, I’ve hit this as well. Just make sure the power plan is high performance, or that nothing can cause the computer to sleep. If the screen saver or sleep activates, then this would occur. The bigge

Yes, jaws and voiceover have similar braille support, and that may be the one feature that causes me to investigate jaws subscription. But I'm not sure about a detailed comparison. It'd be nice if bra

Ok, good to know. Then you just need to download the braille extender add-on and take a look at the assigned gestures. The documentation is very poor, in terms of grammar, but all the commands are lis

There is but only if you have the braille extender add-on installed. If you want to get something useful from NVDA I recommend you install the add-on. The commands are a bit weird though. Nothing at a

I've gotten used to the screen layout. At least for braille it works well. Are there instances where it's better to have things on their own line? I've always wondered how the custom formatting of thi

It happens with every braille display / screen reader combination I have tested. Braille input has never worked for me on any device. I'm not sure where the bug is, or maybe I just type too fast, but

I don't think so. I've never seen any useful formatting indicators in braille with NVDA, but you could play with the document formatting options. I haven't done that. But in PDF's and other places whe

Have you had a look at the Braille Extender add-on? It probably does most of what you want. I know you can switch tables with a hotkey, because I do it frequently since UEB is useless for a lot of thi

If you find it, ping me as well, as I might be interested in a Windows 10 tablet possibly. I'm looking at different things because iOS seems to be getting more buggy so it's time to rethink devices ag

Are you using the Windows 10 Skype that is built-in, or the desktop version? I'll test here, and see if I can figure something out.

Have you tried using the 64-bit Thunderbird? Also unsubscribing from gmail's all mail helped. Telling Thunderbird to expunge old messages also helps. I have no problems here since I did these things.

If you don't have an applications key, you can usually press shift+f10 to get the context menu. Control+c is also the shortcut key for copying text, files, or anything else that has been selected in W

Yes, that’s very weird indeed. I have seen no problems with braille here, so I’m not sure what’s going on. If I run into anything though, I’ll let the list know. Thanks for the heads up!

Which version of the screen reader do you have? I have a Brailliant BI 40 here and it seems the driver is still here, but I can see if I can figure out what’s going on. If worse comes to worse you can
