System requirements

After downloading, in order to play RFB&D's AudioPlus books you will need:

  • A DAISY player (software or hardware) that supports RFB&D books and is authorized to play them
  • A computer with a USB port (for flash memory DAISY players)
  • A computer with a CD burner and associated software (for CD DAISY players)
  • Playing AudioPlus books on your computer

    If you have a software DAISY player, you can read your books after download right on your computer. When opening books, navigate to the My Documents\RFBD Media Files folder. Books are stored in folders by RFB&D product number. All AudioPlus books have product numbers beginning "DL-". Under the product folder, there will be subfolders for each CD of the original CD release. Navigate inside these folders to open the different parts of the book.

    For those larger books that originally required multiple CDs, you will be prompted at times to "Please insert CD 2" (or 3, etc.). When this occurs, just open the book from the appropriate CD subfolder and continue reading.

    Playing AudioPlus books on your flash memory DAISY player

    If you have a DAISY player that uses flash memory storage for books, you can just transfer the files from your computer to the player following the manufacturer's instructions. Books are stored under the My Documents\RFBD Media Files folder. Books are stored in folders by RFB&D product number. All AudioPlus books have product numbers beginning "DL-". Under the product folder, there will be subfolders for each CD of the original CD release. For books with multiple CDs, you will need to transfer each of these CD folders separately to the player.

    For those larger books that originally required multiple CDs, you will be prompted at times to "Please insert CD 2" (or 3, etc.). When this occurs, just open the book from the appropriate CD subfolder and continue reading.

    Playing AudioPlus books on your CD DAISY player

    After downloading, AudioPlus books can be burned to CD(s) to use in compatible DAISY CD players. Books are stored under the My Documents\RFBD Media Files folder. Books are stored in folders by RFB&D product number. All AudioPlus books have product numbers beginning "DL-". Under the product folder, there will be subfolders for each CD of the original CD release.

    When burning CDs, put all of the files within the individual CD folder into the top level of the CD. Do not burn the CD subfolder itself. You must burn CDs as "Data CDs", not as audio CDs. For books spanning multiple CDs, you will need to burn the contents of each CD subfolder onto a separate CD.
