Another Winamp Question
|
Tom Behler
Hello, everyone.
Within the past few wekes, whenever I try to play an audio file from my external hard drive with Winamp, I get a message that says something like: “Winamp has detected a an external drive; do you want Winamp to access this drive?”.
There is a yes/no button, but I can’t get to it.
I have tried enter, and the space bar. I also have tried rooting the Jaws cursor to the PC cursor, but have had no luck.
Occasionally, after trying, I can get the message to play, but then I get an error message about reporting the problem to Winamp.
And, once I get these messages, the only way I can get rid of them is to completely shut down and re-boot my computer.
Has anyone experienced this issue? If so, how can I respond, or better yet, how can I turn this anoying notification off?
I’m using windows 10 version 1809 with the latest build of Jaws 2019.
Thanks!

I have not found a way to shut off the device detection
setting in Winamp, however, you do not have to turn your computer off to fix the
issue.
Simply bring up your task manager with control+shift+escape
and arrow down until you hear Winamp. Pressing alt+E will end the process
and you can then use Winamp as normal from then on.
You don’t have to arrow down the list though, you can just
press the W key until you land on Winamp, then end the process.
I would be interested if anyone is able to turn this feature
on and off with Winamp.

Hi Tom,
First I don't use Winamp so my suggestions are
only that. Have you tried pressing, Alt + Y, for yes, or pressing, Alt +
N, for no? Also you could try tabbing to see if you can highlight the Yes
and No buttons or try the Touch Cursor to see if you can sneak up on
those rascals.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! I believe that everything happens for a reason. Usually, the reason is that somebody screwed up.

Hi Mike,
I’m afraid the dialog box is completely inaccessible with any

I’ve tried Jaws, NVDA and Narrator but to no

Hi Dennis,
I am using 5.66 and I’ve not found a way to turn this feature
off and I’ve been using it since forever. Smiles.
I don’t know what the new version is like, so I can’t say if
it does the same thing or not.

Hi Tom & Victor,
Came across this on another
list. Hope this helps.
From: Bill White
Hi,
Tom. Try the following,
In the Winamp program, go to Preferences > Plugins > Portables > look for the USB one, and hit the uninstall button
Or with Winamp closed, delete pmp_usb.dll from the Program Files (x86)\Winamp\Plugins folder.

In my recent exploration of Winamp, I noticed a plug-in called Device Manager. I wonder if this could be reconfigured or removed. Do this at your own risk. If things don’t work well, you may have to reinstall Winamp. Good luck.

I have tried tabbing to get to the yes/no button, but had no luck.
This computer does not have a touch screen, so that’s not an option.

My version is 5.666 build 3512.
I tried a newer version, but found it to be less usable overall.
Once again, I started experienceing this issue several weeks ago, so it is fairly recent.

Hi Tom,
Just for the future, you don't need a touch
screen to use the touch cursor. Below is the touch cursor
explained:
From: Rebecca Lineberger
I’ve had this stored for a while, and can’t remember now if this came from the Help Menu or from the Vispero website. It mentions Windows 8, but I think the information is still relevant for Windows 10. Object Navigation Using the Touch Cursor Certain applications, especially many of the
modern-style apps found in Windows 8, do not always work as expected with JAWS
when navigating with the standard
cursors such as the PC and Virtual PC cursors. Activating the new Touch Cursor enables you to use the ARROW
keys on your computer's keyboard, or the
controls on your braille display, to navigate through the actual objects in an
application similar to using gestures
on the touch screen of a tablet. Application objects include everything from menu bars, toolbars, and progress bars, to form controls, regions, links, etc. Press SHIFT+NUM PAD PLUS
, or
SHIFT+CAPS LOCK+SEMICOLON
if using the laptop keyboard layout, to activate
the Touch Cursor. To turn it off, activate one of the other cursors, like the
JAWS or PC Cursor. Pressing
the PC Cursor command ( NUM PAD PLUS
) will cause JAWS to say "Touch Cursor" and the
Touch Cursor will remain active. If Tutor Messages are enabled, JAWS will also
speak the message "Double
tap to activate PC cursor". Press the PC Cursor command twice quickly to turn off the Touch Cursor and activate the PC Cursor. The Touch Cursor is enabled by default in
certain Windows 8 applications to improve navigation. These apps include News,
Weather, and Store. Whenever you
move focus to one of these apps, the Touch Cursor is automatically activated. To automatically enable the Touch Cursor in another application, press INSERT+V
to open Quick Settings while focused in the
application where you want to use the Touch Cursor, expand the Touch Cursor
Options group, and then select
Automatic Activation. You must do this for every application where you want to have JAWS automatically turn on the Touch Cursor. Once the Touch Cursor is active, pressing
RIGHT
or
LEFT ARROW
will move to the next or previous object on the
screen. This is the same as doing a left or right flick on a touch screen.
Pressing
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
will move to the previous or next object by
type. By default, these commands will move by region, or group if you are on the
Windows 8 Start screen. This
is the same as doing an up or down flick on a touch screen. To change what object type these commands move by, press PAGE UP
or
PAGE DOWN
to cycle through the available types. For
example, if you want the
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
keys to move by headings, press
PAGE UP
or
PAGE DOWN
until you hear "headings". Now, pressing
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
will move to the next or previous
heading.
Press
CTRL+HOME
to move to the first object and press
CTRL+END
to move to the last object. To announce the
current object, press
INSERT+UP ARROW
. To perform a Say All, which will cause the
Touch Cursor to move through the application and speak each object, press
INSERT+DOWN ARROW
.
As you navigate using the
ARROW
keys, the system focus does not follow the Touch
Cursor. This allows you to freely navigate objects without changing the position
of the PC Cursor or mouse
pointer. Pressing SPACEBAR
or
ENTER
on the current element will move focus to that
element and perform the appropriate action similar to double tapping on a touch
screen. For instance, opening
a menu, selecting a check box, or activating a button or link. In addition, a rectangle will be displayed around the currently selected object to visually indicate the location of the Touch cursor for sighted users. If the Touch Cursor is on an object containing
text, such as the body of a news article, you can press
INSERT+ENTER
or
NUM PAD SLASH
to enable Text Review. In this mode, you can use
the
ARROW
keys as well as all other standard reading
commands to read the text as if you were reading a regular document. Pressing
the
ESC
key will exit Text Review and return to Touch
Cursor navigation.
A good example of using the Touch Cursor is in
the News app, where it is enabled by default. Once the app launches, you could
press
DOWN ARROW
to move to the /Top Stories region and then
press
RIGHT ARROW
to move to a particular story. When you find the
article you want to read, you can press
INSERT+ENTER
or
NUM PAD SLASH
to switch to Text Review so you can use the
ARROW
keys or the braille display to read the article.
Once you are finished, press
ESC
to close Text Review and then use
RIGHT
or
LEFT ARROW
to select another article from the current
region, or
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
to move to a different
region.
Touch Cursor Navigation Quick
Keys
While the Touch Cursor is active, you can use
Navigation Quick Keys to quickly jump to various types of objects, such as
regions, headings, links, form
controls, and so on. These commands are similar to the Navigation Quick Keys that are used when navigating HTML and PDF documents with the Virtual PC Cursor. By default, Touch Navigation Quick Keys are not
enabled when the Touch Cursor is activated. This allows you to fully use
applications that support typing
in the main window. For example, the News app lets you type so you can quickly locate specific stories. If you would like Touch Navigation Quick keys to
be enabled automatically when the Touch Cursor is activated in a specific
application, press
INSERT+V
to open Quick Settings while focused in the
application, navigate to the Touch Cursor Options group, and select Touch Quick
Keys. You can also press
INSERT+Z
while the Touch Cursor is active to temporarily
toggle Touch Navigation Quick Keys on or off.
Advanced Object

For advanced users, specifically those who may
be involved with developing applications, Advanced Navigation provides more
detail about all objects in
the UIA (User Interface Automation) structure. With the standard Touch Cursor, you can only
navigate objects that are visible on the screen in the current application. In
Advanced Navigation, the Touch
Cursor traverses all UIA objects in a hierarchical manner. All Objects, whether visible or not, can be traversed in Advanced Navigation. To enable Advanced Navigation, press
NUM PAD STAR
, or
CAPS LOCK+A
if using the laptop keyboard layout, while the
Touch Cursor is active. Once active, use the
LEFT
and
RIGHT ARROW
keys to move to the previous or next sibling
object and the
UP
and
DOWN ARROW
keys to move to the parent object or the first
child object. To view more Advanced Navigation commands, press
INSERT+H
while this mode is active. Press
NUM PAD STAR once more to turn off
Advanced Navigation and return to the standard Touch
Cursor.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! I believe that everything happens for a reason. Usually, the reason is that somebody screwed up.

I have tried tabbing to get to the yes/no button, but had no luck.
This computer does not have a touch screen, so that’s not an option.
I will try your Alt Y or Alt N suggestion the next time I encounter this problem.
Thanks much!

Hi Tom,
First I don't use Winamp so my suggestions are only that. Have you tried pressing, Alt + Y, for yes, or pressing, Alt + N, for no? Also you could try tabbing to see if you can highlight the Yes and No buttons or try the Touch Cursor to see if you can sneak up on those rascals.

Hello, everyone.
Within the past few wekes, whenever I try to play an audio file from my external hard drive with Winamp, I get a message that says something like: “Winamp has detected a an external drive; do you want Winamp to access this drive?”.
There is a yes/no button, but I can’t get to it.
I have tried enter, and the space bar. I also have tried rooting the Jaws cursor to the PC cursor, but have had no luck.
Occasionally, after trying, I can get the message to play, but then I get an error message about reporting the problem to Winamp.
And, once I get these messages, the only way I can get rid of them is to completely shut down and re-boot my computer.
Has anyone experienced this issue? If so, how can I respond, or better yet, how can I turn this anoying notification off?
I’m using windows 10 version 1809 with the latest build of Jaws 2019.
Thanks!

Hi Tom,
Just for the future, you don't need a touch screen to use the touch cursor. Below is the touch cursor explained:
From: Rebecca Lineberger
Certain applications, especially many of the modern-style apps found in Windows 8, do not always work as expected with JAWS when navigating with the standard
ARROW
keys on your computer's keyboard, or the controls on your braille display, to navigate through the actual objects in an application similar to using gestures
SHIFT+NUM PAD PLUS
, or
SHIFT+CAPS LOCK+SEMICOLON
if using the laptop keyboard layout, to activate the Touch Cursor. To turn it off, activate one of the other cursors, like the JAWS or PC Cursor. Pressing
NUM PAD PLUS
) will cause JAWS to say "Touch Cursor" and the Touch Cursor will remain active. If Tutor Messages are enabled, JAWS will also speak the message "Double
The Touch Cursor is enabled by default in certain Windows 8 applications to improve navigation. These apps include News, Weather, and Store. Whenever you
INSERT+V
to open Quick Settings while focused in the application where you want to use the Touch Cursor, expand the Touch Cursor Options group, and then select
Once the Touch Cursor is active, pressing
RIGHT
or
LEFT ARROW
will move to the next or previous object on the screen. This is the same as doing a left or right flick on a touch screen. Pressing
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
will move to the previous or next object by type. By default, these commands will move by region, or group if you are on the Windows 8 Start screen. This
PAGE UP
or
PAGE DOWN
to cycle through the available types. For example, if you want the
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
keys to move by headings, press
PAGE UP
or
PAGE DOWN
until you hear "headings". Now, pressing
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
will move to the next or previous heading.
Press
CTRL+HOME
to move to the first object and press
CTRL+END
to move to the last object. To announce the current object, press
INSERT+UP ARROW
. To perform a Say All, which will cause the Touch Cursor to move through the application and speak each object, press
INSERT+DOWN ARROW
.
As you navigate using the
ARROW
keys, the system focus does not follow the Touch Cursor. This allows you to freely navigate objects without changing the position of the PC Cursor or mouse
SPACEBAR
or
ENTER
on the current element will move focus to that element and perform the appropriate action similar to double tapping on a touch screen. For instance, opening
If the Touch Cursor is on an object containing text, such as the body of a news article, you can press
INSERT+ENTER
or
NUM PAD SLASH
to enable Text Review. In this mode, you can use the
ARROW
keys as well as all other standard reading commands to read the text as if you were reading a regular document. Pressing the
ESC
key will exit Text Review and return to Touch Cursor navigation.
A good example of using the Touch Cursor is in the News app, where it is enabled by default. Once the app launches, you could press
DOWN ARROW
to move to the /Top Stories region and then press
RIGHT ARROW
to move to a particular story. When you find the article you want to read, you can press
INSERT+ENTER
or
NUM PAD SLASH
to switch to Text Review so you can use the
ARROW
keys or the braille display to read the article. Once you are finished, press
ESC
to close Text Review and then use
RIGHT
or
LEFT ARROW
to select another article from the current region, or
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
to move to a different region.
Touch Cursor Navigation Quick Keys
While the Touch Cursor is active, you can use Navigation Quick Keys to quickly jump to various types of objects, such as regions, headings, links, form
By default, Touch Navigation Quick Keys are not enabled when the Touch Cursor is activated. This allows you to fully use applications that support typing
If you would like Touch Navigation Quick keys to be enabled automatically when the Touch Cursor is activated in a specific application, press
INSERT+V
to open Quick Settings while focused in the application, navigate to the Touch Cursor Options group, and select Touch Quick Keys. You can also press

Strange, I do vaguely remember this message but don’t recall having accessibility issues with it. It was annoying though. Winamp does not need a plugin to access a USB drive/stick/whatever as this is comletely operating system-dependent, normally. So, I uninstalled the plugin quite some time back, I think.

Hi Jean,
No, that’s not what I meant.
Winamp has a portable device detection plug-in that recognizes
when the computer is connected to a USB device. The problem is that Winamp
doesn’t distinguish between external drives, USB sticks or other devices, and so
it brings up the dialog box for every thing that’s plugged into the USB port,
though it doesn’t seem to think my printer is a media device.

That is exactly what I meant though. I haven’t seen this prompt/message in years, and I have multiple USB mass storage devices that I plug in and unplug every day. I seem to remember being able to dispense with the message 8before* I got rid of the plugin, but now, yeah, I’m not toally sure. I disposed of two or three plugins because I noticed that Winamp suddenly became slow to load; this was one of them that is easy to sacrifice, since there’s no reason Winamp needs to know or care what kind of storage device you are using.
