<div dir="ltr"><div>The new xulsword (3.6+) which hasn't officially been announced yet, but which is available now as a google code download, has a module manager which handles audio. As of today, audio for WEB is available from IBT's audio "repository" where it can be downloaded in zip module format. However currently xulsword for Linux cannot play the audio (only the Windows version can, but this should be remedied in the future). This demonstrates one possible module manager implementation for audio. But xulsword expects no other special markup to handle the audio. It simply looks for an audio file for any chapter it's displaying, and if it finds one, it shows a clickable audio icon above the chapter.<br>

<div>Ok, this might be really nice for the
'protected' versions that a lot of people use (NIV, NLT, etc...)
I will forward this on to the rest of the developers as well.<br>
Thanks very much!!<div><div class="h5"><br>

<div dir="ltr">There is an online API, available from Every Tribe,

to gain access to this for the SWORD project, but it turns out
that every application developer would need to gain their own
API key and that this key is supposed to be kept rather
secretive so that someone else doesn't abuse the Terms of
Service with someone else's key. Thus, it doesn't seem too
amenable to use in open source projects.

<div>Alternatively you could use the OSIS methods specified or
use HTML elements. Most Sword applications render out HTML
into a reasonably modern display engine. You could cover a
great many Sword users by embedding audio elements into your
module for play. Controlling multiple such files on a single
rendering might be difficult and might require some additional
tweaking to applications.<br>

<div>Can you provide a link to any sort of API, or way to
include this existing content through OSIS (or just
point me to the correct header files so I can look for
myself).<br>
Thanks so much for the quick response!!

Subject: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles<br>

Hi, I e-mailed the Bible Time list about this, but I
thought I would e-mail this list as well.<br>
Is there support for Audio Bibles built into SWORD?
Are there any audio Bibles hosted already? If
there aren't any would it be ok to package some to
include in the repos, assuming Audio integration
could be included in most SWORD programs.<br>
I am specifically working on an Ubuntu Touch Bible
app, and would like to have an offline Audio Bible,
as "Faith comes by hearing". It would be great to
include this functionality. Of course if crosswire
wont host this, I suppose I might get a repo going
somewhere.<br>
<br>
The audio Bibles I have in mind are of course public
domain, namely <a href="http://librivox.org" target="_blank">librivox.org</a>.
Of course they contain an intro about librivox and
are not in verse by verse sections. There is also a
public domain KJV bible read by firemen (though I
can't remember where I found that one... something
like firefighters.org... not sure though)<br>
<br>
Anyhow thanks for any pointers you can give
(especially specific header files if they exist)<br>
<br>
May the LORD Jesus Christ continue to bless all of
you for your precious work!<br>
