17.1.3 How to play Media files.
Opening a media file to play is the same as opening a file anywhere else in KeySoft. The steps are
laid out below. In this procedure, it is assumed that you know how to select a drive, folder or file
from a list.
1. To open the Media Player, press FUNCTION with M anywhere.
2. The BrailleNote QT will display one of the following two prompts:
a) KeySoft prompts “Play media file in which folder? Press ENTER for (folder name)"
where the folder name is "General" the first time you use the media player, and after that, it's
the last folder accessed. Go to step 3.
b) KeySoft prompts “Continue playing (file)?” where file is the last file you paused while it
was playing. To start the track playing from the same point it was paused, press Y. To select
a different file, press N and refer to a) above.
c) If the Media Player was already playing in the background, it will continue to play. Stop the
track by pressing ESCAPE and go to option a) above.
3. There are three possible actions at this point:
a) If the folder you want was offered at the prompt, simply press ENTER and go to step 4.
b) If you want a different folder on the same drive as the folder offered, press SPACE and
select another folder, then go to step 4.
c) If the folder you want is on a different drive or on a card, press BACKSPACE and select the
drive or card from the drive list. Select a folder from the list of folders, and go to step 4.
4. KeySoft will prompt for a file name. Go to a file in the list. If you want to play only this file,
press Enter and the track will start playing.
If you want to play several files, one after another, press CONTROL with SPACE to mark the
first file you selected and want to play. Continue to select files from the list and mark them with
CONTROL with SPACE until you have selected and marked all the files that you want to play.
Press ENTER to start playing all the marked files. For more information on marking and
unmarking files, refer to. 15.8 Selecting Multiple Files
5. When the track or tracks finish, KeySoft will prompt,
"Media file to play? Press ENTER for (file name)" where file name is the name of the last
file played. At this point you can select another file, or exit the media player by pressing
ESCAPE.
