Then I give way to your superior knowledge on the matter Steve.

I explained that in an earlier post.

 

The books come down in two separate folders, one per CD.

 

Dolphin tries to import them as separate books.

 

What would be easier, would be for RNIB to make them all one complete book.

 

All the best


Steve

Hi Steve

 

My husband has downloaded several longer books from the RNIB Reading Services 
page without issue.  Yet people are struggling to do likewise with Dolphin 
EasyReader, so how is it RNIB and not Dolphin if it doesn’t work correctly on 
that app?  I’m just curious that’s all, I don’t use EasyReader but know the 
problem has been around for months as Iain says.

 

Kind regards,

No, it is not Dolphin, I believe it’s RNIB, and it’s easy to fix.

 

All the best

I don’t have this issue as I don’t use the EasyReader method, but it is 
probably as much to do with Dolphin given it is their app?  It does seem to 
have dragged on for a long time though.

Is the long book problem not within the power of the RNIB to fix? Surely all 
they need to do is rebuild the books. Given that Easy Reader is the most 
straightforward way of accessing books and the method which RNIB are pushing 
hard, it seems to me not acceptable that a significant number of books cannot 
be properly accessed. Which was an issue which was pointed up in testing last 
year so it has been a known issue for a considerable time.

Hi Jackie,

 

I would agree with you, the service is fab.

 

I only wish they could fix multi-disk books with EasyReader, I am one who likes 
to listen to everything on one device, my phone, so I use EasyReader.

 

All the best

Hi Mandy

 

It’s up to you if you choose to download books with EasyReader, I don’t 
personally.  I download all my books which then go into the Downloads folder on 
my PC.  I then unzip them, and copy onto the card for the VRS.  I must admit I 
love the service, with the slow-down in receiving Talking Books on CD through 
the post, the Reading Services website is just fab! I appreciate it has a 
couple of quirks yet, but I’m very grateful to have it.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jackie Brown

I have no problem using RNIB Reading Service, however, I like having talking 
books on my Victor Stream so how do I accomplish downloading books onto the PC 
so I can then copy them onto my Victor Reader card?

Do I still use EasyReader?

Mandy.
