Hi Steve
You state:
“I still say it’s much easier to do Audible on a cheap tablet or phone.”
You don’t seem to get it! Some audible customers like myself like to listen to
our books on Desk top players with physical buttons, tone control etc. don’t
forget some blind audible customers don’t possess smart phones or tablets or
get on with finger gestures.
Isn’t it all about what Blind Audible users consider best for themselves, and
employing the best method of listening that suits their needs?
Best wishes
Henry

Hi David,
I think it would be a moot point though, since you can’t activate specialist
players using the app. I thought it was the activation process that people are
holding onto for grim death.
I still say it’s much easier to do Audible on a cheap tablet or phone.
All the best
Steve

I was interested to see that Jaws Scripts for the Windows 10 Audible app have
been developed.
See
http://www.dlee.org/
This may be useful if people are interested in using the Windows 10 Audible app
on a laptop, tablet or even Desktop machine.
This of course does not currently include any option to authorise specialist
players.
However after researching on Audible Help pages I see that it is possible to
specify the download folder for your books.
I have also seen discussions that these are the same format files available
with the legacy Audible Download Manager, making it theoretically possible
then to continue to use your specialist player via Inaudible or I guess Open
Audible interface.
I don’t want to disturb my current working Audible arrangements on Windows 10
but it would perhaps be useful if someone from TAVIP grabbed a spare machine
to install a setup using these scripts to test out their viability.
