[gui-talk] NLS Player

[Dean Martineau]

I don't know if the right answer has been posted here yet, but to see other
books on the player, hold down the play key until it beeps.  

My favorite trick about the player is that the cartridge is just a special
usb device, so if you have the manual dexterity to do it, you can put a usb
drive into the cartridge bay and nothing sticks out.  I have my 32-GB usb
drive in there.  It takes a little doing to get it in and out, but it works.

You can play music and other audio files on the player if you put them into
a folder called audio+podcasts.

You can play RFB&D books on the player if you  authorize the player as
directed.  RFB&D membership is now free.

One important thing I forgot to mention in my previous message is to check 
which firmware version is installed on your NLS player.  To play more than 
one book on a cartridge, you need firmware version 2.1.1 or later; 
otherwise, the player will only play the first book on the cartridge.  To 
determine which firmware version is installed on your player, turn it on, 
and without a cartridge inserted press the Sleep key rapidly 10 times.  The 
player will announce the serial number followed by the firmware version.  If

the firmware version on your player is earlier than 2.1.1, you need to 
update it to the latest version which is 2.1.3.  To do this, visit the web 
site below and follow the instruction in the Frequently Asked Questions 
section.
