babyteen Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I was wondering, does anyone remember the commercial where they say something like, "Pace Picante sauce is made in New York City. New York City? Have you been too hard on 'em? Naaaaa!" I'd like to find an audio recording of that commercial, maybe even a streaming video would be cool. Anyone have any suggestions?

babyteen Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 The problem is, my screenreader has trouble with Youtube. Also, when I click on the play button, I hear nothing. Apparently, my screenreader isn't compatible with Macromedia Flash Player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth-Angel Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) Have you tried another screenreader? I know there are quite a few out there, there must be one which supports flash Screen Reader Accessibility There are three ways in which the Flash content can be made accessible to screen reader users: 1. Make the Flash content natively accessible to the screen reader. 2. Make the Flash content self-voicing, eliminating the need for the screen reader. 3. Provide an accessible alternative to the Flash content. By making your Flash movie self-voicing, you remove the need for the screen reader. In essence, you are taking over the role of the screen reader by conveying audibly any content that is presented visibly within the Flash movie. The screen reader user should be alerted that the program is self-voicing so the screen reader can be paused while the Flash movie presents the audio content. Any important content that is conveyed visibly must also be provided through the audio. You can relate this to listening to a sports event on the radio - although you cannot see the action, the commentators are providing all of the important details through the audio. You may want to provide a self-voicing movie as an alternative to a non-voicing Flash movie, or provide an option to turn self-voicing functionality on or off. Remember, if you are conveying any content audibly, that is not apparent from the visible display, then you must provide captions for the deaf and hard of hearing. The movie must also be made keyboard accessible. It is also important to provide an equivalent alternative to the Flash movie itself. This should only be done when the movie itself can in no other way be made accessible. It may be hard to justify that an HTML tutorial is equivalent to an interactive multimedia Flash tutorial. The key is to make the alternative content equivalent, not necessarily text-only. Instead of providing a text-only page with long running lengths of text, the equivalent should be a well-formatted and accessible web page with images, icons, paragraphs, and color. Just because someone accesses your equivalent alternative, doesn't mean that they are blind and don't care about what the page looks like or how it functions. Often, the alternative can be within the same page as the Flash movie itself. In some cases, you can give the user the option of turning on and off Flash content... ...Despite the problems Flash can introduce for screen reader users, there are accessibility techniques that can be implemented to make Flash more accessible. Microsoft Active Accessibility (MSAA) is used to send content from the Flash player to the screen reader. MSAA is a Microsoft technology that currently only works with Internet Explorer on Windows computers that have the Flash player version 6 or newer installed.

babyteen Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 The problem is, I'm totally blind, so I can't see any screens. And JAWS (Job Access With Speech) is the only screenreader that's best for me, since it's the one that I've been associated with for years.

Earth-Angel Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 I was hoping there was at least one you could use that would be compatible. Well, back to the actual query now! Guys, do you think this might be the right one? babyteen, I'll see if I can find a way to get a recording of the one you want Does anyone remember this commercial and how it looked? There are quite a few on YouTube to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babyteen Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Actually, the one I was thinking of is, after the guys say, "New York City", some other guy chimes in and says, "Have you been too hard on 'em?" Then the other guys say, "Naaaa!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth-Angel Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 The YouTube link I posted does make fun of one of the cowboys saying "New York City", but I am not familiar with the brand or commercials at all I'm afraid. It seems there are a few of them who mention NYC as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyteen Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the commercial I'm looking for came out some time between 1987 and 1989. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
