Hi Keith, a daisy book is only an mp3 book with navigation files. Just unzip,
and separate out the mp3 files. RNIB sometimes change the order, so you may
have to reorder them, but you'll hae your mp3 book to play with winamp.

Hi Ain,
Thank you.
Yes, what I am downloading is a zip file, but pressing enter on it the files
are .sml file.
I play all my sound files using Winamp, so I wish to have .mp3 files.
With best wishes,
Keith

Hello ueith
What you have downloaded is a zip file. What you need to do is unzip it into
a folder and you should then be able to use Winamp to play the folder.
Alternatively , If you are a JAWS user, you will already have a DAISY book
reader in FSreader. This will allow you to play the book and gain access to the
navigation allowed by DAISY.

Hi all,
I would please welcome a little help with the new Reading Services program.
I used Overdrive with no problem whatsoever.
I first used Internet Explorer with the new site, but couldn’t download a
single book.
I am now using Google Chrome where I E has problems.
I can now download a book, but it’s in Daisy format, and I wish to download
a book with an .mp3 extension, to play using Winamp.
Could someone kindly tell me how I choose to download an .mp3 file?
With many thanks.
Best wishes,
Keith
