Re: Can Jaws 2021 latest version open M3U files using VLC media player?
Milton Ota
First, you might have to set the VLC Media player as your default media player if you need help, just go to the Start button, press enter, type default, press enter, tab until you come to the choices for audio media files and select VLC Media Player.
For the person who was having trouble checking for update of the VLC Media Player, sometimes it takes a while for it to check. If it finds an update it will begin downloading. You can also do a version comparison by checking the www.ninite.com website for the latest version posted there.

Good evening everyone,
I should have indicated in the post that I posted this morning, That the specific file or stream that I wanted too listen too, was our ACB New York state convention. Even when I tried too attempt too do a check for updates, It wouldn’t let me download or install any updates that were available for VLC media player.

Yes it can.

How many files did you try? It’s worth noting that what you’re doing is not actually opening a file on your computer, but a little text file that points to a url where the data is streaming from. So, it could be that the stream itself isn’t working at the moment. It happens.

Good morning everyone,
Between yesterday morning and this morning, I’m unable too open ACB media seven radio stream, using the VLC media player. Is this particular player unable too open M3U files as well? I can’t even open this stream using the older windows media player.
Thanks in advance,
Al

problem filling in a PDF
Madison Martin
Hi all,
I'm trying to apply for a new Canadian passport, but I'm having trouble filling out the application, reading it isn't going supper grate either. I open pdfs using Adobe, any ideas of anything I can try so that I can fill out the application? I know I could get sighted help, but I'd really like to try filling it out on my own first if at all possible. Using latest versions of Jaws and Windows 10. Really hope someone can help me!! Thanks Madison

He seems to think the world will end if he can't run Windows 11. You are of course entirely correct, installing Windows 11 by some sort of hack is probably the worst thing you can do and there is absolutely no reason for it. I still hear of things like File Explorer being fairly sluggish with all screenreaders in Windows 11 and while I am also curious about Windows 11, I am in no particular hurry and have a feeling that once I do maybe install it on the one computer I currently own which says it can run it I will be underwhelmed and find that on a day-to-day bases it will make little difference.

Why would you want to install an unsupported operating system? My understanding is that if you do, you may not get security updates. I'd install the latest version of windows 10 and be content, even if you
really want 11, you probably don't want it for the first six months, unless you like using your computer for a door stop instead of a computer. Leave the first little while to those with spare computers. On 10/14/2021 22:31, Marvin Hunkin wrote:
