This module has been tested with version 2.2 of RadioSure. Lowest versions are not supported.
No special configuration.
For some keyboard configuration, the basic input gestures using the "alt + control" modifier combination are not suitable.
For that, an option allows to use instead the combination "shift+ control" combination.

This editing area is in the form of an edit field and a drop-down list memorizing the previous search criteria. This editing area may not be displayed. In that case,the script causes a press on the Expand button to make it appear before moving the focus.
If the keyboard command is typed when the focus is already in the area, the script signals this.
This script is launched by the keyboard command control+alt+s.
Its purpose is to put the focus in the list of radio stations which contains the search result. The focus is placed on the radio station previously selected and it is announced, such as for example:
# Musik.12punks on RauteMusik.FM; Country: Germany; Genre: Rock-Punk; Language: German
This list may not be displayed. In this case, the script causes a press on the Expand button to make it appear before moving the focus. If the keyboard command is typed when the focus is already in the list the script signals it.

Its purpose is to press the "Exit" button.
This press results in user confirmation, closing the window and stopping the RadioSure application.
RadioSure allows you to filter stations using the contextual menu of the header of each column of the station list.
but this requires a set of painful maneuvers that the following scripts remove:
These input gestures can be modified using the NVDA "Input gestures" dialog.
Note: when a filter is applied, RadioSure signals this by preceding the label of the column header with a "*". Several filters can be applied at the same time.
In RadioSure, the space bar is provided by default to activate the buttons, but not the "Enter" key.
Now to press the buttons, you can use the "Enter" key or the space bar.
The module provides this possibility without preventing operation in all other situations.
When starting a station, RadioSure visually reports the progress and NVDA announces the changes of this progress according to the configuration of the choice "Progress bar output " of "Object Presentation" category of NVDA settings.
This is not of great interest and quite unpleasant in the long run.
Although it is possible by manually configuring this option and only for RadioSure using a configuration profile, to deactivate any announcement, the add-on offers to do so by default.
It is obviously possible to return to normal operation by unchecking the "Disable progress bars update" checkbox located in the "Options" category of add-on settings.
This script is triggered by the "alt+control+r" input gesture.
It randomly chooses a station from among the stations in the station list and starts playing it. If the station list is not displayed, it is displayed by pressing the "Expand" button.
To ensure that the playback starts correctly, it monitors the connection status of the station for the time configured in the "Random playing"group of the "Maximum delay for waiting connection" comboBox of the "Options" category of add-on settings.
At the end of this time and if the connection has not been successful, it starts over with another station the number of times configured in the "Maximum stations to check" comboBox placed in the "Random playing" group of the "Options" category of add-on settings.
By default, it memorizes stations with connection faults to exclude them virtually from the list of stations and thus do not choose them again. This operation can be deactivated by unchecking the "Skip stations without connection" check box in the "Random playing" group of the "Options" category of the add-on settings.
This group also offers a button to delete all the stored stations.
To shorten the search time for a good station, it is preferable to have as many stations as possible in the list that are connecting.
