Kurzweilo should not be taking that long to convert a book! Smile,
something is definitely wrong there, mine may take at the maxium a half an
hour but usually much less than that.
So... not sure what is going on there.
Try Text Alloud if you like.
Though i suspect that your problem is not software specific, in other words
I suspect Text alloud is going to be really slow, and it may be time to give
the fine folks at Kurzweil a call.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Reading books downloaded from the loving BookShare
Hi Everyone,
I hope these aren't stupid questions, but I'm trying to deside how I should
read my books that I'm downloading from BookShare.org.
Right now, I read them either on my Voice note or my computer, but I wanted
to make some of them into MP3's and I have had problems with doing that
with Kurzweil 1000. It's like it took almost a day to convert one book to
MP3, as it had to read it. One Star Wars book, it took 2 days. lol.
I know I'm doing something wrong, so please don't laugh too hard. lol.
What is the best program to make mp3 files out of brf files.
My next question is this:
I have the PlexTalk recorder from Plextor and I love it! It was one very
expensive item that I bought after arriving home from Oregon in June of
2003, and one loving item that Vernon brought out to me outside on that
night of June 24th, 2003, when we were hit with that awful f4 tornado.
My question is this. If I download the daisy player from BookShare, can I
put these books on my PlexTalk and read them as well in Daisy format?
Also, what book reader are you all using when reading books on your
computers?
Thanks much.
Pat Ferguson
