Hi Sandy. Question. How does MP3 Merge know how to order files if they are
not numbered or placed in some logical order? Do you know what its order
parameters are?
Thanks much.
Neal

You could use a program called, MP3 Merge to merge those files into one
file. I don't have the link for it, but I am sure someone on list does.
The software is easy to use.

Rob, That might work as you state and probably does, and if you have
the time to sit and rename over 100 files then that is great, however,
when I want to read a book, I do not want to have to spend all that
time to rename file names. I'm not trying to cause trouble here and
what works for you is fine, it just doesn't happen to work for me
especially when I have a device that I don't have to do that for.
Don't get me wrong, the booksence is a great device and I'm sure it
will do nothing but get better in the future. I just have very little
spare time and I do not want to spend it doing unnecessary things.
I do appreciate your advice however, and happy that it works for you.
Have a great holiday season.

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.

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>

11For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord,
thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope
in your final outcome.
12Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I
will hear and heed you.
13Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital
necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.(A)
14I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will release you from
captivity and gather you from all the nations and all the places to which I
have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from
which I caused you to be carried away captive.
