Hi all, S Ince we are going round in circles a bit here lets look at the editing of daisy information.
When you edit the information on either a CDR or CDRW (its actually imaterial with the PTR1), you record sequentially to an MP3 file (that is, you record from start to finish). The file will just grow in length. There is one MP3 file per book/title/whatever you want to call it. You may not insert or delete from that file directly; all this is done in the DAISY control files. When you are working with the DAISY files on the PTR1, ensure you save them regularly to disk, as a lot is done in memory - it will save if you switch it off after making changes, but if it crashes (which is highly unlikely) the changes to the DAISY structure could be lost. When you finalise the disk, a number of things happen: 1. The TOC (table of contents) are created, giving the position of the most up to date DAISY control files (as these can't be just physically removed from the CD either). 2. XML generation is done for standard DAISY compatibility. 3. Optionally the disk will be closed for editing. You can then play the disk with any DAISY player, or put into the PC for editing with PRS, fr for use with the PRS export function which will generate proper audio files in relation to the DAISY structure. The only difference with a CDR and a CDRW is the CDRW can be totally erased from the disk - i.e, you can only go on until the CDR is full, then it needs either archiving or binning; not with the CDRW. Hope this helps, Andrew. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
