Hi, Correct, what would a folder which holds NLS books only be called on a plextalk then???

The difference here is that with the other machine it has to create these specific folders. If you insert an sd card into that machine on which you already have material but which is not organised into this specific folder structure it will probably not work properly? -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Otto Zamora Sent: 27 June 2012 06:43 PM To: 'Plextalk User Discussion List' Subject: Re: [Plextalk] plextalk Hi, But do you not create folders on the card, so you know where your material is?

I'm not sure about the hole process as I'm not having those services available to me, but it should be quite strait forward. Don't worry this list is quiet at times. Irti is great and they could give you more clear directions if needed, I'm not sure if you have to contact plextalk for the key to be send to you. Goodluck. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Otto Zamora" <donttreadonme@bellsouth.net> To: "'Plextalk User Discussion List'" <plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 1:29 PM Subject: Re: [Plextalk] plextalk
Morning,
Glad to finally se a post on this list, thought maybe that I had messed thing up and never subscribed. Having said that, when purchasing a plextalk, where does the authorization key which is necessary to read NLS books come from?? Does it come from Freedom Scientific or IRTI, or the actual company which makes the unit?? I am attending the ACB convention long enough to look at and buy a plextalk, but know I must have a key before I can put NLS books on the machine. Thank you very much for all of the help and effort in advance. Otto

Wel, if you go to media management and press on delete, it won't just ask if you sure you want to delete, but also announce the file name, and in the case of a daisy recording it will play the first fraze, so maybe you were a bit quick when pressing enter before the tts could announce the file name. Unfortunetly the pocket is a bit slower than the BookPort.

O, boy, I was planning on deleting item 5, but instead I nuked item 1. I thought I had highlighted item 5 but then as I went in media management, it seemed to find its way back to the first item? As the woman inquired of whether I wanted to delete, I must have been confused among select-and-cancel? It nuked the wrong item, but since I mostly record Live
News-Programming, I really would like it back. If you don't have something like a recycle bin, could I put the card in my Linux machine--and-run recovery software based on an ex2 or ex3 file system? Maybe 16months or so I have both a Plex-and-BPP, but as long as I just punch a record button, pause, and stop, I'm ok, but much of the navagation
seems not at all intuitive! At times it reminds me of windows explorer, but worse. Next, I suppose there are no ways on the unit to re-arange titles, or really re-record a title? At times I am trying to switch over to recording on these units, but goophups like this are probably more errors than I've ever had on an open-reel machine in 43years. I think it would be more helpful to re-arange the prompting for deletions,
so that maybe an involved title is mention nearer to the beginning, which
would be lots easier to comprehend. Thanks so much in advance for any-and-all insites Hart
