MP3 player

[Today’s run: none]

I’ve been wrestling with an MP3 player.

This is a new area for me. I don’t listen to a lot of music so I have never gotten into the big music collection with play lists and randomized tracks and whatever other features of such things exist.

I’m trying to organize some free audio book files on an MP3 player. It is an audio recording of the KJV Bible, so there are 66 “books” each having from 1 to 150 chapters. Each chapter is an mp3 file. So, I have a tag program and I’m trying to get it such that I can select from the list of 66 books and then listen to whichever chapter I want. I also want it to be able to start at any point and continue on through the chapters and books in order.  I adjust the tags a bit, then download to the mp3 player to see how it presents the list of books and chapters.

It has been a bit of struggle. I think I am getting close though.

I did something like this with a little iPod Shuffle.  I thought it turned out pretty good, but then someone asked me how do you go to a certain book and chapter and I couldn’t think of a way to do it.  This time I’m using a Sansa mp3 player and if I figure it out I may try to revisit the issue on the iPod.
