Hi,
I see that it is now 'mandatory' to use the RTÉ 'Flash-filled' Catch-Up
Player if we want to watch a previous edition of a programme like, , say,
"The late late Show". Oh well. I hav had to clear my personal settings,
i.e., enable Flash for the RTÉ site, , etc., in order to better access what
is going on with the player while I'm 'viewing' last night's edition. The
audio/volume is better than under the former set-up, so it has that much
going for it, anyway.
mark, could you also please try JAWS (latest version is 10) and see how
things compare with and without JAWS? And the on-screen information, the
same? I wish there was a way to fast-forward and/or rewind while in the
player, but I don't see any suitable buttons (these buttons which are given
numbers, as they appear) for this. One would have thought that, within a
programme of 1 hour 50 minutes and 15 seconds duration, such navigation
should be possible?
[Note: I have an advantage in that, as well as speech from JAWS, I also have
braille with JAWS. that's how I got the time information. there is also
some kind of clock or monitor button with which you can see the time elapsed
as it goes second by second.]

RTÉ launches catch-up TV service
Hi Mark,
Thanks for all the very useful info.
I use Zoom Text 9.1 so no problem with text magnicaacation. the video worked
ok on the adds but the programs would not open for me here, a network issue
probably.
The big problem for me was the audio, ZT did not read anything on the web
page, like the player buttons or the names of the programs etc.so that was a
big drawback for me.
But it looks a great idea so I hope they get it sorted.
Tony
