The VectorReader Stream expects directory of a particular naming
structure on each memory card. They are as follows:
$VRDAISYNISO for directories containing DAISY books.
$VRMusic for music files, MP3 etc.
$VROtherBooks for directories of MP3 book recordings.
$VRText for ASCII text and HTML files.
iStream will create these directories if needed when the Stream is
connected to the Mac but it will not do so automatically. This is
because on a Mac, or even a PC, the Stream appears as an external USB
drive and there is no way for the Mac to tell it from any other USB
drive. Further some users will wish to add these directories to the
media by means of a card reader and not by connecting the Stream to
the Mac. iStream permits this as well.
To create the directories connect the Stream to the Mac or place the
memory card into a reader so that it appears on the desktop. Run
iStream and either select the menu item "Create Folders" (command-F)
or push the "Create Folders" button on the maine screen. iStream with
then ask for the location to create the folders, choose the root (top)
level of Stream or the memory card. The folders will be created.
Should you have some of the directories already on the card then
iStream will only create those that are needed.

i have read that now when i get a stream, i ahve to keep creating
the folders for the card when placed into the stream. can your
stream program be made for the mac, to detect the card when in the
player and you connect it to the mac, and then create the roo
folders automatically like the dtb folder, books or whatever the
folders are, as keep doing this for every card you may use will get
tiresome
i don't mean create all folders just the root directory folders,
hope i make sense
this would aid a mac user enormously save keep fiddling if using a
new card creating new folders all the time
will
