If you convert the audio to MP3, you can play it. I don't know if you can
do that with video files, though.

Hi folks,
By way of introduction, my name is Eamonn O'Connor, and am living in Dublin.
I've had my Bookport for about a year, but have just recently subscribed to the list.
I'm wondering if there is software which will strip the audio from audio / video files, so the audio can be played on the Bookport?
I downloaded some files, (marking the 25th anniversary of radio Netherland's "Media Network programme.)
While the audio plays fine in Windows Media Player (and I think Winamp as well,) , the video is really jerky, like a strobe light. I'm not worried about the video, but would like the freedom of listening to the audio while on the move.
The files are available in both Quick Time and Windows Media formats. Below is a link to one of the files, in case anyone feels like experimenting!
Regards with thanks,
Eamonn
