Raoul,
I appreciate your and Brian's look at the inability to track the
headings on this particular book.
I did locate the heading by jumping around using the time
feature. The essay "The Awful German Language" begins at 18 hours,
45 minutes 15 seconds. If the NLS didn't mark this up originally of
course I don't blame the Book Sense for not seeing it.
However, I did notice a little odd quirk when navigating to that time
mark. Once I cued up the start of the essay and press the pause
button I got the time of 18:45:15. However after pausing I pressed
the 0 key again to get the time and this time it reported another
time nearly six minutes earlier, 18:39 and change. The reading,
however, started right where things were left off, so somehow when
pausing and multiply reviewing the elapsed time output I get this
time difference. I repeated the task several times and it always
reported a different time the second time than when I first noted the
first time.
Any ideas?

Hello Brian. Thanks for letting me know this. It confirms that due
to the markup of this particular book, it seems that any DAISY
reader capable of NLS playback will experience the same thing.
Many thanks.

I'm not the Brian that originally posted but I took a look at this book
on both the book sense and victor reader stream.
The sections that appear to be skipped are simply not marked up.
The marks appear to correspond to the tone indexing information. The
headings not marked are within those sections.
For instance, the ascending rifelberg section has within it the piece on
the german language.
The short answer is, the booksense is tracking the headings that are there.

Hello. I've got this book and it's 31 hours long. Short of listening
through all 31 hours, can you give me some more details as to where in
the book are the skipped chapters? So when you find one which the
BookSense is not stopping on, can you press the 0 key to see the time
you are in so I can test this?
many thanks.

Folks,
I recently downloaded the NLS book "The Complete Humorous Sketches and
Tales of Mark Twain" and noticed that some chapter headings were seen by
the Book Sense and others not. I tried navigating by Level 1, by heading
and even by paragraph. At first it looked as if I could nicely skip
between chapters using the heading feature. However, quite a few
chapters just don't appear there. For example, the Book Sense doesn't
find the chapter about Twain's Notes on the German Language. But if you
read through the text you will find it and if you puddle around enough
you can find it by time navigation. Somehow the Book Sense is not seeing
all the chapter headings the NLS puts in. Will this be fixed with the
new firmware?
