AudibleManager Forum

Hi all,

I will be tying to find methods to make Audible.com's software at least passably usable under Crossover/wine.

So far, I can install Audible Manager without a problem. It runs with problems and occaisionally hangs. I have a kludge for downloading content (see Tips & Tricks) which can probably be polished up a bit. CD writer is not recognized and probably won't be under the Wine environment (for now). So, while Media Player and Audible Player work, a workaround will need to be found to burn content to CD. I will be experimenting with moving the content to the Pocket PC or Palm environment and installing appropriate players.

So, I see the goals here as Downloading content, burning to CD, and exporting to Pocket PC or Palm.

Let me know what else you would like to be able to do with this application and any success you may have had.

Version 3.5 (and I am sure v4) works with the same cosmetic problems as before but at least now I get the downloaded files in my inbox. :) BTW, this is with the 3.1 beta. So watch for this to be repaired. :) I will keep you posted on progress.

One last note for those using Audible and iTunes, the iTunes connector appears to be working and sending the files into iTunes.
