I don't know about newer versions of osx, but it used to be, that with
quicktime (I don't think it was a pro only option) you could simply
open the smil file for the daisy book in question, and quicktime would
handle the book just fine. This assumes of course, there's no
encryption to deal with, and the smil file was properly configured. I
discovered this by accident way back in the tiger days when reading
the hunt for red october which I had purchased on cd from brilliance
audio. Since I'd purchased the mp3 cd, I copied it all to the
computer, and went to see what was in the folder. I found the smil
file, clicked, (more out of interest than anything else) and quicktime
opened it right up, and gave me the list of chapters, all in their
proper order.
I don't use daisy format much, so I don't know if either quicktime or
osx has changed this behavior, but just something for those who may be
able to use this solution.
