Replay Media Catcher 3.11 : Use Firefox

Setup is
Replay Media Catcher 3.11
Vista Home Premium
JAWS 11
Firefox Browser
This applies only if you use Vista OS.

You must use Firefox browser in order to capture on demand (not live)
audio/video with Replay Media Catcher 3.11.

Internet Explorer 8 browser will not work. Whether you try it externally or
within RMC's 'launch browser' option within the Record menu bar. In both
cases the Internet Explorer 8 browser webpages are invisible with JAWS 11
which means you can't find your audio/video content.

Don't know why this is.

Solution
Install Mozilla Firefox browser. You will need to install Adobe Flash Player
10 from
http://www.adobe.com

Flash Player for other browsers is the one you want. And uncheck the box for
the McAfee product located near the bottom.

When it asks you for the active x type install quickly press alt+a.

It was kind of tricky to install the Flash Player 10 for Firefox. Best to
have a sighted person around but I managed on my own. Save yourself some
time.

So to capture with Firefox browser and RMC.

1. Run RMC
2. Press alt key
3. right arrow
4. Down arrow one time and enter on start recording
5. minimize RMC.
6. Make sure Firefox is your default browser.
7. run Firefox
8. go to the website you want to capture
9. Play the on demand (not live) stream for 10 seconds
10. play as many streams you wish for 10 seconds
11. RMC is capturing those streams silently in the background for you.

Finally when you run RMC you will get this message everytime it starts up
unless you told that message to stop bothering you,
