Hi all.
Sorry if this is off topic, but since it involves Bookshare I thought I'd
ask and see if anyone knows anything on the issue.
I just ordered myself the new Victor Reader Stream from HumanWare a few
days ago, and was wondering how to put Daisy books from Bookshare onto it
when I get it. I've tried downloading Daisy books once or twice, but when
you unpack a Daisy book you get about three or four different files with
different file extensions for the same book, which is one reason I've taken
to downloading books in .brf and translating them into .txt format. That
way I only download one file instead of about three or four, and .brf files
are also smaller.
Anyway, just in case anyone has this player from Beta testing it or
anything. how would I go about getting books from Bookshare onto the
player? I know you have to put them onto the secure digital card, but do I
just download the .bks file or which file should I put onto the player once
the book is unpacked?
If I do end up downloading a Daisy book, I just keep the .xml file and it
opens up in Internet Explorer. If anyone has any info on this issue I'd
appreciate it. Thanks all.
