Hello all you broadcasters out there . I use to be a DJ a few years back using
magnification either from zoomtext or later on the the built in one that windows provides
while using SAM Broadcaster. I'm wanting to teach a friend who's a JAWS user how to
use this software but I don't know the tricks and tips. Would anyone mind helping me
out? I know the basic of jaws software but I'm unformikat with curses and which ones are
to be used while using Sam broadcaster?
Thank you kindly in advance !

I have some experience of using this software with jaws. It was a little while ago. As far
as I can remember, you don't have to adjust any cursers when you are using this
software. You can pretty much use hotkeys for everything, F12 for mute, F11 to start or
stop streaming etc. F4 will crossfade into the next queued track, that kind of thing. Don't
know if this has been any help to you. Hopefully it has. Good luck.

I'd switch to Station Playlist.
Not only is it accessible, it comes with help and totorials.
It cost, but they'll let your friend pay a little at a time.

You can tab between the queue and some other features as far as I can remember. It has
been a while since I have used it as I said. Sorry I can't be any more help.

Sam broadcaster has already been purchased and installed.
I've tried tabing to go throw windows but no luck. Should I have it set to a certen curser?

I only ever had to use it with PC cursor.
