Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Hi Curtis, May I please ask you if you know how to break up a single mp3 file by permanent track markers using a program like Wave Pad?

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
I would use mp3 direct cut, not wave pad because wave pad or any other editor takes the *.mp3 and makes it a *.wav file again, so you need to re-encode. Mp3 direct cut handles the mp3 directly. Do your editing in studio recorder or your favorite sound editor before making the *.mp3 files. on Friday 4/30/2010 01:12 AM, JOHNNY CHILELLI said: Hi Curtis, May I please ask you if you know how to break up a single mp3 file by permanent track markers using a program like Wave Pad?

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Hello List Members, I will add, that if you wish to make an mp3 file in Wave Pad, here is how to do it. After you've made your recording, do a control plus shift plus the letter s. If you're using JFW, you will hear JFW say, save as dialog, combo box wave *.wav. One of twenty. You can use your arrow keys to scroll up and down the different file types. The Lame mpg encoder *.mp3 is the next one down. Right after you do that, you can tab over to the set up options to set your mp3 file up the way you want it. Then after you are done with that, just click the save button, and you're all done! Hope this helps. My best regards.

How about you hitch your player up to the lnie in on your sound card. Set the thing as fast as it'll go and record it with some software.

I should mention that manipulating the NLS content so that it can be played on a device not authorized for it, especially getting it into mp3 format, is a violation of your agreement with NLS. You need to be careful not to do that, and also not to give out ways and means to others. It will hurt all of us as patrons if users abuse the system. Apparently something like this happened a few years ago with the Web Braille system, and it was shut down for a while, with dire pronouncements that it wouldn't return.

Hay Guys and Girls, If you really want to keep your NLS books, then why not put them on an external USB hard drive?

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Hello Howard, Let me see if I can clarify what I said in an earlier post. The NLS books are zipped by default when you download them. Even if you were to unzip them in to another folder on your computer, you won't be able to play them unless you put them on an NLS cartridge or some kind of a USB flash drive. Once they're on an NLS cartridge or USB flash drive, then you can play them on your NLS player. Hope this clarifies my earlier statement. My best regards.

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Goldwave also comes withthe Lame encoder which can be downloaded from goldwave.com as a plugin. I also commend Goldwave as a very easy to use and inexpensive sound recorder and editor. A licensed copy is only about $50 American or $59 Canadian. You can ddownload Goldwave as a free demo which will give you about 3 thousand key strokes before you have to take a decision to purchase or uninstall. For JAWS users there are scripts developed by Jim Grimsby and they work very well to create a very robust Goldwave Jaws Interface.

Do your editing in studio recorder or your favorite sound editor before making the *.mp3 files. on Friday 4/30/2010 01:12 AM, JOHNNY CHILELLI said: Hi Curtis, May I please ask you if you know how to break up a single mp3 file by permanent track markers using a program like Wave Pad? Do you recommend another simpler, more accessible, oh and yes not to expensive product for doing this?

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Sadly, I am compelled to agree with Matthew on this one. Finding clever techniques to circumvent NLS bard encryption will result in a permanent revocation of the NLS bard system. Don't think for one minute these lists are not monitored by big brother. Just a bit of unsolicited advice from one paranoid conspiracy theorist on The Third Rock. best regards Rob Tabor - Original Message - From: Matthew Bullis matthewbul...@runbox.com To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, April 30, 2010 7:27 PM Subject: Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player I should mention that manipulating the NLS content so that it can be played on a device not authorized for it, especially getting it into mp3 format, is a violation of your agreement with NLS. You need to be careful not to do that, and also not to give out ways and means to others. It will hurt all of us as patrons if users abuse the system. Apparently something like this happened a few years ago with the Web Braille system, and it was shut down for a while, with dire pronouncements that it wouldn't return. Please enjoy NLS content responsibly.

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
Hello Jim and list: Since I don't exactly know what a pin drive is..I may not be fully qualified to answer this question..but if I were to hazard a guess, I'm inclined to think that you can't as those files just aren't meant to be played on the computer! Of course I could be wrong, so am anxious to see what other list members have to say on this one!

Re: saving and playing audio books from my NLS player
High Tom, You are correct, you cannot play those NLS books on your computer. Like I said in an earlier post, the people at the Bard Talk website has those encrypted. So no you can't convert those to a standard audio file. But between you and me both, I wish we could. My best regards.

Of course you can save it as a *.mp3 file, just record it on your PC using GoldWave or Studio Recorder, of course it would be 1X, and you'll probably want to make chapter *.mp3s or some kind of markup so that you can at least use a minimal kind of book marking, but sure, it can be done, but not directly from the *.3gp files since they are encrypted.
