I'm not sure any tool is going to enable your screen reader to read the onscreen menu the sighted see. But, various players will allow you to access the content. It's not as elegant but it works. Or, alternatively, get a copy of DVD Audio Extractor and rip the audio from your discs to mp3 or some other audio format for listening. This at least saves hard drive space. Chris |

I forgot. I'm too used to doing things the other way.

WinDVD has a right click menu which is accessible. It's not free, but,

like PowerDVD, has been a popular OEM for several years. I haven't seen it, but am sure their current version supports the latest high-def format. It's customizable, with a nice feature set, but don't be surprised if it hides much of its control panel under Media Center. I looked for some of those features for a year. Don't overlook RealPlayer. It handles some tough titles about as elegantly as one could wish--even MASH. It took me years to master that one, and the computer was a great help. Also, when attempting to watch "The Searchers: a while back, WinDVD stalled, but RealPlayer didn't even blink. Ted -----Original Message-----
