This is correct, if it starts playing automatically it's fine, but the
flash controls and content will not read. Adobe has made it clear they
have no interest in fixing this on the mac. One thing you can do in the
case of youtube, go to http://youtube.com/html5
Click the option to join the html5 trial. Once that is done, many of
the videos will play using html 5 instead of flash and this will make
the controls accessible. Eventually flash will totally be phased out in
favor of html 5 but this may take a while.

Thanks, that does sound like a good tip. I'll try it. Hopefully it wont
block plugins I actually use.
So, am I right to conclude that apart from flash players that are
controlled by HTML controls and players that load automatically like
youtube, flash movies are completely inaccessible for VoiceOver users
on the Mac?
Cheers,
Nic
