Audiobooks and Rockbox
« on: January 03, 2008, 03:57:19 AM »
Hi,

I have a 5.5g iPod and have recently loaded the Underground Build (I've also had the EvilG build on, along with regular Rockbox).

It all seems to work fine, however I cannot seem to find my audiobooks from Audible.com in the File system or Database. If I switch to the regular iPod software it's there under "Audiobooks."

Anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to play my audiobooks, or is there something wrong on my end?

Thanks.

1) As the forum rules CLEARLY state, do not ask questions about unofficial builds in the main forum.

2) Audible DRM encrypts their files. This prevents Rockbox from being able to use them.

Okay, my apologies for posting in the wrong forum. Although it seemed to be a problem with the regular Rockbox as well.

Thanks for the info, that helps.

the "problem" isn't with rockbox however, it's with Audible's files.
