Tony,
When trying to play a book that consists of multiple mp3 files such as the
one you describe, and I have more than 200 of these, you *MUST* make sure
that all of the file numbers have the same number of digits.
That is, if there are over 100 files, you absolutley have to add the leading
zeros from 1 to 99.
Your numbers have to be
001.mp3
002.mp3
003.mp3
and so on, adding only one zero after your reach the number ten, as: 010.
I am positive that, if you do this, and then put all of the files into the
folder for that book on the SD card in the Audio Book folder, your Book
Sense will read it in the proper order and will keep its place and allow the
use of book marks.
I have been reading a couple of books that consist of over 250 files already
today and am very happy that it now works properly.

Subject: [GW-Booksense] New Firmware Issue with playing Multiple Files
I was very excited to hear that the BookScence was now able to play a folder
of multiple mp3 files but after copying a book over to it and turning it on
to listen I find out that it is playing them all out of order.
Here's a run down:
The book was called Dead After Dark and they were numbered, Dead After Dark
1 all the way to Dead After Dark 118.
Now the BookScence sorted them like this:
1
11
12
13
And so on. All the files that started with a 1 were grouped together and all
the files that started with 2 were all grouped together and so on. You can
see where this might be a problem if you like reading your book in order.
The weird thing is when I took the SD card out and looked at the folder all
the files were grouped together correctly. I even tried removing all the
file name except the numbering and still had the same issue. It seems that
the bookscence has it's own way of sorting file names even though they are
correct originally.
Unless there is something I am missing, this new feature is useless if you
have more than 10 files in a folder.
Please tell me I am missing something! <smile>
