Hi Petrina.
I’ve become aware from other sources that Audible are coming down hard on
companies that offer book ripping and audio conversion services to deprotect
Audible’s titles. It wouldn’t surprise me if SoundTaxi has been one of the
companies who has been asked or forced to remove this functionality from their
offering. The VR Stream should be able to play Audible books natively; you wil
need to authorize your VR Stream with the Audible Download Manager tool, then
compy the books to the device either using Audible Manager or simply drag an
drop the file into the appropriate folder with Windows Explorer. I hope this
helps, contact Humanware if you need any further technical support or you can
call Audible on 0800 496 1081.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Petrina,
Have you asked Humanware if they have any ideas such as a firmware update? Or
even Audible who may well know of a solution?

Subject: [access-uk] Converting Audible books with Sound Taxi
Hi all,
I am running Windows 10 with JAWS 2018, on a laptop. Because my old Victor
Stream will not play my Audible books I use Sound Taxi to convert them to mp3.
So because I have just bought a new laptop, I had to purchase Sound Taxi again.
I have tried to convert a book, but when I press enter on the open button, I
get the following message. Media content is protected you must install Free
Media Processing plug-in to unprotect the content and start conversion. Then
there are two buttons, one says plug-in website, file(s) will not be converted
download and install plug-in. And the other button says later. But when I press
enter on the first button, I can’t find any think on the web page, to do with
Free Media Processing plug-in. Is there another program I can use to convert my
Audible books? or am I going to have to bite the bullet and buy a new victor
stream. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
All the best
Petrina
