Hi Terrie,

 

You can access MP3 books with the Audible app and Audible has a button for
Narration Speed at the bottom right of the screen. Your choices are 0.75x,
1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x and 3x.

You can also play MP3 files/books in the Downcast app and it also has speed
control. However, it is not a free app.

Sieghard

Hello!

I have just joined this list. I will search the archives, but wanted to ask
for recommendations for an MP3 app to use for mp3 books that I can speed up
the speech in. I am also writing to make sure that I am subscribed.

Thank you for any ideas you can suggest.

You can not use the Audible app unless you have an audible account. Speed up 
player pro speeds up mp3 files very nicely.

RE: MP3 App that Can Be Speeded Up

2013-09-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Terrie,

 

Yes, you don't need a subscription to use the app itself. First of all, you
can buy books from Audible at full price without a subscription and download
them with the Audible app. Accessing books synced to your phone via iTunes
is also no problem. At the top of the app are 3 tabs:

 

Cloud: This shows any Audible books you purchased

Device: This shows Audible books you purchased and downloaded to your device

iTunes: This is what you want, it accesses books you synced to your device
via iTunes.

 

The current version of the Audible app is the best it has ever been.
Voiceover support is 100% and fantastic and I think for listening to audio
books it doesn't get much better.

Sieghard

Kristeen,

 

I beg to differ. You can use Audible just fine. If you sync audio books to
your device via iTunes and select the iTunes tab at the top of the screen
it will show these books and you can listen to them.

Re: MP3 App that Can Be Speeded Up

2013-09-02 Thread Kristeen Hughes
It's true you can buy Audible books at full price. That's no problem. When 
talking about mp3 files that are not in the audible format, however,   getting 
iTunes to sync and make these files work properly is not an easy task on the PC 
side. Also, though I have tried this method with my Mac, I could never see the 
files on the iPhone or iPod. It's been my experience that a straight-forward 
player app such as Speed up Player Pro was a lot more friendly.

 Hello!
 I have just joined this list. I will search the archives, but wanted to ask 
 for recommendations for an MP3 app to use for mp3 books that I can speed up 
 the speech in. I am also writing to make sure that I am subscribed.
 Thank you for any ideas you can suggest.

RE: MP3 App that Can Be Speeded Up

2013-09-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Kristeen,

 

I don't want to dispute what you say and if the app you mentioned works well
than that's great. However, I just thought I better back up what I say about
using Audible and I found it straight forward. I am not sure how you get
books into the Speed Up Player Pro app and whether it's a free or paid app,
however, here is what I did to play a book in the Audible app:

 

1.   I opened iTunes on my PC.

2.   I selected Add Folder to Library from the File menu, browsed to a
folder containing an audio book in MP3 format. In my case I chose a book I
downloaded a long time ago from the CNIB, it is the book The Mediterranean
Caper by Cliver Cussler and my version consists of 5 separate MP3 files.

3.   Once I clicked on Select Folder, I heard the familiar tri tone
iTunes makes when it's done with a task. I now went into the list view of
all my songs in the music library.

4.   Since the files had no ID3 tags, they show up at the very bottom of
my list of songs. I highlighted all 5 files, then pressed Control+I for Get
Info and gave them a proper name, entered Clive Cussler as the artist etc.
I then went to the Options tab and specified them as Audio Book. After I
pressed OK I heard the tri tone again and now the files were gone from the
music library.

5. I went to my Books library, selected to see Audio Books and here was
now my book.

6. I now connected my iPhone, clicked on it and checked the Books radio
button. I have Sync selected books checked, I tabbed to the treeview where
I see all the audio books in my Books library. The book was now listed, I
pressed the space bar to check it's checkbox.

7. I now tabbed to Apply and pressed the space bar. It took maybe 30
seconds for the 5 files to sync to my device.

8. I now opened the Audible app, refreshed the library and double tapped
on the iTunes tab. The Mediterranean Caper was listed, when I double tapped
on it I saw the 5 parts/files and double tapping on the first started the
book.

 

Including spending a few minutes adding the ID3 tags to the files it took me
maybe 5 or 6 minutes to do this. Normally I use Chapter and Vers to convert
all my old MP3 books with multiple files into a single file M4B book. This
is also a bit of work, but once it's done I can sync a book to my device and
it goes straight into the Books library and I can skip the first 5 steps,
all I have to do is check it under the Books section of my device and sync
it. As I said, I am not saying this is the way to go, it is everybody's
choice, but I have the Audible app on my device anyways and use it all the
time to listen to my Audible books. If I want to listen or re-listen to the
odd book I got as an MP3 book then for me this is how I choose to do it. One
thing to remember is that you do have to refresh the Audible library either
by swiping down with 3 fingers or by going to Settings and tap on Refresh
library.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

It's true you can buy Audible books at full price. That's no problem. When
talking about mp3 files that are not in the audible format, however,
getting iTunes to sync and make these files work properly is not an easy
task on the PC side. Also, though I have tried this method with my Mac, I
could never see the files on the iPhone or iPod. It's been my experience
that a straight-forward player app such as Speed up Player Pro was a lot
more friendly.

Hi Terrie,

 

Yes, you don't need a subscription to use the app itself. First of all, you
can buy books from Audible at full price without a subscription and download
them with the Audible app. Accessing books synced to your phone via iTunes
is also no problem. At the top of the app are 3 tabs:

 

Cloud: This shows any Audible books you purchased

Device: This shows Audible books you purchased and downloaded to your device

iTunes: This is what you want, it accesses books you synced to your device
via iTunes.

 

The current version of the Audible app is the best it has ever been.
Voiceover support is 100% and fantastic and I think for listening to audio
books it doesn't get much better.

Sieghard

Hi Terrie,

 

You can access MP3 books with the Audible app and Audible has a button for
Narration Speed at the bottom right of the screen. Your choices are 0.75x,
1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x and 3x.

You can also play MP3 files/books in the Downcast app and it also has speed
control. However, it is not a free app.

hi Terrie,
Good to see you on this list.
Depending how fast you want to speed them up, the native music app will allow 
some speed adjustment.
I have not tried speeding up  books with Audible, but that might work.

You can also use the Music app to do this, although it only works with files 
that are tagged as audiobooks.
