That is something we have given some serious thought and some resources =
into. I will tell you now though that it will be veeeery slow. Remember, =
we have to decode the mp3, tsm it, then (the slow part) re-encode to mp3.
The good news is that this approach actually results in a smaller file =
that ends up on your device.

Hi,
I wonder how hard it would be to implement the following approach for
speeding up MP3 audio in the BookPort, Since no hardware/firmware =
capability
is presently available in the machine.
Could the bookport transfer software have an option for doing a one-off =
time
compression of the audio file by a percentage, prior to sending the =
sped-up
file to the Book Port?
That is, if you know the file is read slowly, the transfer software would
let you pre-determine how fast you want it, and have this sped-up version
sent to the bookport.
I don't know if APH already has PC-based algorithms for speeding up audio,
without adjusting its pitch.
Thanks
Tim
