Editor's review

Mozekty is a free fast tool to play, record and share audio streams, podcasts and radio stations for blind and visually impaired people, you can also get a list from of latest radio stations on the internet and save your favorite stations.

Pros: Mozekty lets one play, record and share audio streams, podcasts and radio stations for blind and visually impaired people. It is also possible to get a list of latest radio stations on the internet and save favorite stations.

This full featured player plays radio stations on the internet from all around the world. The programs that can be listened to, include other streams and podcasts too. User can edit the list of stations one wants to listen to by editing, adding, deleting. This list can be shared to a internet database so that others can listen to them. Finding stations is through the bitsnips.com site.

You could record a radio stream while listening to other audio streams. Full information and statistics is available for the currently playing stream. When minimized the application is still available with its full controls from the system tray.

The user interface is quite good. The text to speech system speaks out the complete menu as one mousse over the options. That facilitates use by visually impaired people.

Cons: The text to speech system is supposedly for the blind and the visually impaired people, I guess. While it is generally good, it still takes quite a bit of getting used to. Besides situations where it speaks out the menu choices, while a particular channel is playing, is not very clear. Thus it can cause confusion. The message bar seems to be an interesting thing. However, this is not accessible to the visually imparted people as there is no means of reading these out. I am not very clear how completely blind people can use this application.

The message bar talks about a bug, if the URL contains a Unicode character it is not parsed correctly.

Overall this is quite an effort, a nice application. It is rated at a good 3 star level.
