Chris: you're close; in Winamp, you have a deal where you can hit a command (control-J" and put in a specific place to go in a file, thus, if you know (and of course this has to be learned beforehand) and it's no problem, for Winamp has a way were you can look and see where you're at in a file; you hit that "control-J" and it'll take you to the exact spot where you left off! Now Winamp may have a "bookmark" thing too (not exactly sure of how this works) but the method that I have described works well for me! I'm not saying that VLC doesn't do this, but I've yet to figure out how you'd do that with VLC! Tom Kaufman

I believe what the original guy I think it was Tom? is talking about is being able to take a very long audio file, and placing a timed bookmark in it so if you close your player and re-open it, you can jump right back to the same exact spot you were when you closed it. Think of it like placing a bookmark in a book so you can find the correct page. I know JAWS has this functionality, and Window-eyes does too, but I don't believe NVDA has an add-on for Winamp with this functionality...and if it does exist i haven't seen it.
