Thanks Chris, Steven, and Kevin, for the help. Chris as far as sound quality goes this is a computer voice so there isn't alot too loose. Smile When I make Text aloud split a book, I tell it to only make five k files. That way the tracks to my book are only about five min long to listen to if I were to loose my place. When text aloud makes the WAV file it is lick-idy- split! The progress bar flies through the WAV making part. It only takes a second to zip right across the screen. When the MP3 con version starts it takes 15 to 16 seconds per track i.e. wave file. Is it just the nature of the beast? I mean is there something just faster about WAV files than MP3 files? I wish I could just use the wave files but my Panasonic cd walkman type player doesn't read WAV files. It will read cda or MP3 on cdr and cdrw but not WAV.
I was just wondering if it was the text aloud MP3 converter that was just slow and if there was another converter that could and would do the converting from WAV to MP3 faster. That way I could let Text aloud make the WAV files and use another something to make the MP3 files without taking half an hour to an hour waiting, and in the making I can't do anything else. I know I sound like I am impatient and only good things come to those who wait but, I hate waiting. Grin.
