I'm wondering if anybody has done anything with tiflolibros www.tiflolibros.com.ar/ You have to register and give proof of disability to get books (most of them Spanish) but I'm not sure if the format of the books is a text file of some kind that theta or festival could read or an audio file and since they don't mention linux I don't know if there are any problems downloading, though the downloads are apparently zip files which should not in and of themselves be a problem. Also, they had something up to which one could listen, using wmp. When I tried it on mplayer on this machine I got the start of cache fill and it looked like it was going to work; then I was told mplayer had crashed due to poor use of cpu, but since I play all sorts of other things with mplayer I wonder if it's this machine's setup or something else. Haven't tried it on my laptop yet, where I just recently freshly installed mplayer and a bunch of codecs. If somebody has time, could you check out either of the two urls below and see whether you can play them. Thanks. mms://www.jawsesp.com.ar/shua1.asf mms://www.jawsesp.com.ar/tato1.asf -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
