Hello
This is my first post, but I have often browsed and found answers to some minor problems with my p910i with success thank you all.
I am trying to put some talking books in mp3 format on my 1gb memory stick (my eyesight for book reading is not as good as it was).I can play them from the m/stick but have to click on each individual track as the next track will not auto start. I have been looking at the manual/help files & can't get it worked out.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards
Mike

Hi,
Welcome to Esato!!!
Assuming that you are using the standard music player on the phone, you can simply create a folder (ebooks?) within the Audio folder of the Memory Stick and copy all of your audio books into there.
Start the Music Player and chage the folder to the ebooks folder that contains the MP3s.
Andy hey presto, you should be able to play each one after the other automatically or one-by-one.
Hope that is of some use.

Matt69 thanks for the reply. I am using the standard player that came with my P910i
Thanks for the help Jon
I have now created a folder within the audio folder on the memory stick.When I start the music player I can see the folder under "external storage" in the all dropdown menu.I cannot seem to open my ebook folder from there or change it in any way(this is the bit I can't get my head round). any further tips would be welcome.
Regards
Mike

Does this picture help? or is this how you have the structure?
This screen shot is of the music player - i pressume that you have selected the (in this case) audio book folder that is highlighted.
I think that the answer may be shown in the 1st image - I think you may not have put the MP3s into the audio folder within a folder. ie - you need to make a folder within that AUDIO folder.
If this doesn't work then I think I'm out of ideas! I hope it works. I know that video files all need to be in seperate folders for each video, and can sometimes be a bit of a trial & error excercise.
Good luck
Jon

Also you can't put another folder inside the ebooks folder.
So if your first MP3 file is called "Chapter1.mp3" it should be located like this:
Audio/Ebooks/Chapter1.mp3
Then you can play it by selecting the Ebooks folder.

What you could also do is simply to get PowerMp3 or other 3rd-party application (which supports playlists) and make a playlist with the audiobook in it...
