Thanks. I just realized that the downloadable music setting was not turned
on so expect this may have been part of the problem.

I had a problem with one book, but noticed that it went away once I made sure there was no compression in any selectable form (time and pauses), and I have the download as music setting turned on. Haven't had a problem since.
Format 4 is all I've ever used, and any weirdness. like crappy sound quality I think derives from the original source rather than the format.

Hi:
I noticed the same thing after I downloaded The Broker in format 4. I'm not
using the compression feature so wonder if the problem lies somewhere else.
My new laptop was having some problems down loading and staying connected to
the IP server here so I thought that may have been partly the cause. I have
been an Audible subscriber for over 4 years and have never encountered a
similar problem downloading in their compressed formats 2 or 3 to my old
Audible Otis MP3 player. Two other downloaded books from Audible did not
exhibit any of these problems.

I'm just guessing, but I suspect the pause compression is the problem. This can happen if the recording is of low quality. Try sending a small section with pause compression turned off.

Hi Larry and all,aruell@xxxxxxxxxxx 03/08/06 10:03AM >>>
I just downloaded and read The Lincoln Lawyer on my bookport. I noted that
the ends of some words were clipped off. This has not occurred in other
files to my knowledge, but was quite noticeable. I both compressed pauses
and used time compression when sending the file to my bp. Any thoughts?

We have just uploaded what we hope is frozen code that will constitute the
next release of software and firmware for Book Port. This will probably be
called 2.2 when it is released.
If you have any issues, please let us know.
