Hi Doc, I'm a new GW user, but I think I've got this under my belt now.
You can do it in 2 ways. Either, get goldwave to search the file and split it automatically for you, I.E. by long silences, (go to effects, filters, and set the silence duration, (I think that's where you do it). Might not work well with a book though, although it should, if the books been divided up into chapters. More predictably, and the way I know, is to open the file, fast forward to where you want to make the first break, press right bracket, (]), and cut the selected part of the file. Open a new file, paste the selection in, and save that as say bible1. Return to your original file, and fast forward through again until you want to get to the next break point. select cut open new file and paste as before. Save this as bible 2. Do this till you reach the end of the book. I believe there is a way to jump through using time, however I don't know how to do it, though I'd like to. That way you could break the file up into predetermined lengths. You can however vary the speed of the fast forward, so if you can set it at 20 times, you could press fast forward, leave it for 3 minutes, and you'd know that you'd gone through an hour of the book. Oh you and others might want to know that there's a goldwave list now, [EMAIL PROTECTED], put subscribe in the subject line. It's a new list, so is still expanding, but we have quite a good knowledge-base developing.

If you are referring to the table showing the differences between the players and recorders that RockBox will work with, then the url is http://rockbox.haxx.se/docs/devicechart.html Note that the devices and features are in a table, so make sure you use your screen reader's table navigation or you probably won't make much sense out of it.

' Subject: RE: Archos and Rock Box Sarai, Below, I have pasted in a message that Aman posted to the list quite some time ago outlining the instructions for enabling a full set of talking menus, and folder and file navigation. I just did this myself, and it worked great. I now have an Archos with talking menus. ---snip snip--- Hi. This seems to be somewhat on topic, and I've received a few requests to send this info, so I'll send it to the list. To activate the talking menus, you first need to download the daily build of RockBox. This is not the stable version 2.2, but a later build, and is available at http://rockbox.haxx.se/daily.shtml Make sure to download the build for your unit, whether Player, Recorder, FM Recorder, or Recorder V2. Then install it as you would any other version of RockBox. Make a .RockBox directory on your Archos, expand the zip file into that .RockBox directory, and copy the archos.mod file (player), or ajbrec.ajz (recorders), to the root of your archos. Now download the english.voice file from http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/speech/voicefont/english .voice Make a langs directory inside the .rockbox directory on your archos and put the english.voice file into that. That is, the path to the english.voice file should be j:/.rockbox/langs/english.voice Assuming your archos is assigned drive letter J. Now disconnect your archos as usual, turn it on, and hit menu. You should have talking menus. Stay tuned to the rockbox list, subscription information for which is on the Rockbox site, for future improvements.
