Hi, as I am visual impaired, this is very cool. I don't know how to generate playlist, anyway I used the mediadisplay module and cck media display, in order to make a form where the user can upload its audio files, then with litle adjustment in php you can display each files with own properties. I installed the Audio module, but I wasn't able to see the player, and this is strange because also if flash player is inaccessible, I should see some words as "start flash" or "end flash", so I give it up.
Anyway, Drupal 5 is one of few cms really accessible for blind people also from an admin point of view, including all the administrative tasks. I didn't try drupal 6, I think that drag and drop with blocks will generate lots of problems. Bye.

Hello,
I've been trying to set up the Audio module to run on my website. I'm currently using Drupal 5.7. However, I have discovered that the built-in players that ship with this module are inaccessible to screenreaders and therefore, as a blind user, I can't access the audio that I upload, nor can any other blind visitors to my site.
I am particularly looking to add audio posts to my blog.
My question therefore, is there a way that the audio module can instead generate a playlist file like an m3u file, that would open in the user's player of choice?
Kind Regards,
Stuart Lawler.
