Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

Still no luck with uploading Section 4 so it will open. I'm wondering whether giving the file a slightly different name might be a way to get around it but it needs to be a name that can be found. With Martin not around, I have no proof listener, so there's no urgency.

Sections 7 and 8 uploaded.

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

Section 6 uploaded.

I'm still struggling to get Section 4 uploaded in a way that it can be listened to. It says https: in the Magic Window but when I click it it adds %20 before it and can't open.

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

That is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. Sorry to bother you again but what should I do to change the bit rate to a constant 128? As for Martin, I am connected with him on Facebook. He often posted in the past but hasn't posted anything in a long time. I know he has had health problems so ...

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

I take it that Martin is ill. I haven't seen him ranting on Facebook lately about the evil Conservative Party (despite the amount there has been to rant about!). I hope he gets well soon. There's no hurry as this is definitely a long term project and I am happy to keep sending sections to wait for p...

Re: Download figures

I recognise that any statistics are going to be inaccurate but please could we have some? It's encouraging to know that somebody's listening to our work and broad trends (eg twice as many views as four years ago) can be informative.

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust

Should I not mention the translator? I know I named him at the start of every section of Within a Budding Grove. I think he should be mentioned at least at the start of Section 00 and at the end of the final section.

I'm having difficulty uploading. I've tried both my Legamus password and my Magic Window password but neither work for the uploading screen.

Re: How to download

When I click on download from that page it plays the section but I don't think it downloads. Maybe I'm just being stupid but I can't find a new file on my computer that I can move to my MP3 player.

How to download

So far as I can work out, we can either play Legamus files on our computers or download a whole book as a zip file and then open it. Is there a way to download chapters/sections rather than a whole book so that they can be listened to on a MP3 player? The book I recorded is nearly 27 hours long whic...
