Re: [orca-list] Accessible audio video DVD player

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

I've used Totem in the past to play audio and it does have ability to
map common media keys to control the program from outside the
program's focus.  Lately, I've come to like gnome-mplayer.  Basically
it is a front-end to mplayer itself and once inside the program, you
use the regular mplayer command keys to control it.  I'm not aware of
any to apply global keys to it like with Totem.

I've never watched any DVDs with gnome but I understand totem is a
regular "movie player".  Mplayer can supposedly play DVDs too.
