Re: M4B-format audiobooks

[Gerardo Corripio]

Remember that the free version, allows for up to 12 hours of listening/reading time before needing to purchase. This is why I opted for the "BookPlayer", which by the way, I wish it had uploading content via WiFi!

Search for it on the Appstore, but I will leave the link to the paid version. I have to say that the only problem I got is moving  backwards for specific intervals of time, but you can definitely jump from one chapter to another both backward and forward. Besides, there are other functionalities. Particularly, I like the capability to add books via Wi-Fi  using a web browser, which is another important feature missing in Voice Dream Reader.

It does a fine job except for one thing, and this was an absolute requirement that I thought I mentioned originally: It ignores chapters in the original M4B file. I just tried it on two files, and although the conversion was fine, Kabuu made one big file out of the original, not one for each chapter. The markers are there, but Kabuu ignored them.   On 1/15/2023 1:03 PM, William James wrote: If you want to convert an m4b to mp3, I recommend Kabuu Audio Converter so you can listen in VDR.  More info below.   <image001.png> Kabuu Audio Converter fosshub.com     Sent from my iPhone Pro Max On Jan 15, 2023, at 12:24 PM, Thom Spittle <thom3...@gmail.com> wrote: Just as a sidenote. You can replace the bee with an A and it will be able to be played with more media players. You may lose some functionality, such as bookmarks and things like that, but that’s an option.

Most of the reasoning behind the M4B format is that a proper player can read the section marks--chapter, etc.--that your normal average everyday run-of-the-mill media player does not and cannot. Someone recommended the VLC Media Player. I haven't tried that one yet because I already know its accessibility is, well, below par. Sure wish Voice Dream Reader could do this. It's the ideal solution, as it handles other formats so well. Recommendations welcome.   -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.   If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.   Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.
