<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hison, that is awesome! you made my
day seeing that. I am glad to have that perspective about
illiterate peoples, as well. I simply listen to the Bible on my
phone through the audio program because, well you know the Bible
is the most amazing book ever, and always amazes me (even things I
have read or heard hundreds of times).<br>
I will continue to look into TTS as well!<br>
May our Lord continue blessing all of us, and enlightening our
minds to spread the good news and feed the illiterate and literate

is great! Siri, is of course only available for iOS,
so unless there was a SWORD TTS ( I remember using
some open source TTS once... but I don't think it was
as realistic sounding as that). But this would
obviously keep the file sizes down, and remove the
need for something like mp3 codecs (though ogg is most
likely what I would use anyhow).<br>

though I think some of those a proprietary.<br>
It might be interesting, this way all new modules
would automatically have an 'audio' component, and it
could all programatically be linked together (like
your word by word highlighting)<br>
Thanks for the food for thought<br>

<div>One difficult issue is the large size of
audio files. This makes it impractical for
most people to download all available audio
for a module at one time. It seems there
needs to be some way that users can be
notified when audio is available for a
module, but also be able to choose the
chapter(s) they want to download, and get
them only when they want them. Maybe the
SWORD module manager allows this already I
don't know.<br>
<br>
</div>
I should mention that xulsword did not use the
SWORD API for its module manager because it
would have been difficult to wrap the C++
functionality into Javascript, and doing so
would not have made XUL's RDF database coding
any easier, plus using Firefox's build-in
parallel download capabilities makes it
possible to work with xulsword (including most
of the module manager itself) and download
various modules all at the same time.<br>

<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>

Most Sword

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
moz-do-not-send="true"
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
<a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://firefighters.org/">firefighters.org</a>... 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>
<br>
