  Playing music or mp3 books on your NLS digital player.

The NLS digital player has been out for a few months now. I have been 
asked this question countless times. How can I play music or MP3 books 
on my new NLS digital player?

As you know music and book files can be saved as mp3 files. These files 
can be ripped from CD's to your computer. As you already know, you can 
play TalkingBooks either from cartridges or from a flash drive plugged 
in to the USB port on your NLS digital player. Here is the way to get 
your device to play MP3's.

You need to create a folder on your flash drive. This would either be 
the optional cartridge you can transfer data to or a flash drive. These 
drives may be called a memory key, thumb drive or jump drive. After the 
folder has been created you can place MP3's in to that folder and your 
player will play these files.

The folder name you need to create is:
Audio+podcasts

Editors note:
Do not spell the word plus when creating this folder. You must use the 
plus sign on your computer. The plus sign is entered when you press your 
shift key in combination with the equals sign. The equals sign is 
usually located to the left of a desktop 101 type keyboards backspace 
key. Also you must spell the word podcasts with the letter S at the end 
of the word podcast.

When you place MP3's in this folder your player will play these files. 
You can also play multiple folders as well.
The folders *must* be inside the audio+podcasts folder for them to be 
played.

To learn how to do this and navigate the Book Shelf consult your user's 
manual. Press the play stop button down, until a beep is heard and you 
hear bookshelf. To know how to navigate this bookshelf consult your NLS 
digital players manual by pressing and holding down the diamond shaped 
key until you hear user manual. This key is a toggle and pressing it 
again will take you out of the manual.

This Minny tutorial should aid you in playing MP3's. Return To The
