Hi where can I find information on what DAISY books RNIB produce? I'm thinking of taking up reading, including magazines, and thought I would make the most of my JAWS purchase by using FSReader to read the DAISY books.Thanks for any information you might have.

It's just not behaving like a DAISY title at all on my system, just a text reading facility at the moment.The audio files are physically present in the appropriate folder but theyjust don't appear to be linking to the FS Reader programme and playing when I load the various books. If I load an audio only DAISY title, again there's no audio output. Using Jaws 11 (most recent build), Windows XP Home and FS Reader 2.0.

Iain -------------------------------------------------- From: "Jamie Cuthbertson"<jamie.cuthbertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 23, 2010 11:51 AM To:<jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [jaws-uk] FS ReaderHi there, Previously I've not bothered to try to use FS Reader but would now like to use it more because it claims that, for Jaws 11 onwards, it can play other DAISY books beyond the Jaws training materials.I've been trying to use it and can only list the text of full text DAISYtitles but can't get any of the audio, either from the Jaws training materials or from other DAISY books. Has anyone any magic tips on how to get FS Reader to speak the recordedaudio? There doesn't even appear to be any controls in the programme forcontrolling the volume and so on. Perhaps my understanding of what FS Reader is supposed to do is completely wrong but I had thought it was supposed to be a fully functioning DAISY player for Jaws 11 onwards. Any thoughts?
