- | =====Set Play Order===== | ||
- | |||
- | This begins the customization phase of your audiobook. | ||
- | |||
- | DAISY books expose track names to the end-user, so we need to make sure that each one of these tracks has a sensible name. | ||
- | |||
- | On this page, there are four main sections to help you rename and reorder tracks as needed. Please do these all in the following order: | ||
- | |||
- | - Play Order; this is where you can check and reorder the tracks in the DAISY book | ||
- | - Track Names; this is where you can trim track names or use the '' | ||
- | - Levels; this is where you can set up multiple levels for navigation | ||
- | - Final Check; this is the last step you do before you finish your book | ||
- | |||
- | < | ||
- | |||
- | ====Play Order==== | ||
- | |||
- | In this section, there is a dropdown menu in the '' | ||
- | |||
- | The '' | ||
- | * Change the rank | ||
- | * Edit the title of the track | ||
- | * Split the Track | ||
- | * Join the Track | ||
- | * Delete the Track | ||
- | |||
- | If a Track is out of order: | ||
- | * Select the file you wish to move and select the '' | ||
- | * This will take you to the '' | ||
- | * There is a drop down menu at the top of the page that asks you to set when this track will be played. Ensure you're happy with its title. | ||
- | * Select the order in the dropdown menu for '' | ||
- | * Press '' | ||
- | |||
- | Part of your workflow is to make sure that there are no tracks joined together, or separated from their respective parts. For example, the first track might have the Title Page, Dedication, and Prologue in the single track. In this case you would need to split the track. Another example, is a single chapter split over 2 or more tracks. Please see [[Join and Split Audio in Converter Plus]] for more information. | ||

- | =====Track Names===== | ||
- | |||
- | In this section, you can trim the lead characters of the tracks, or you can use Track Discovery to navigate through each title to rename them. | ||
- | |||
- | The trim feature is useful if there are extra numbers or punctuation before all the track names. For example, if the files are '' | ||
- | |||
- | To do this: | ||
- | * Enter the number in the text box for '' | ||
- | * Select '' | ||
- | |||
- | In our example, we would set this number to '' | ||
- | |||
- | If the tracks require renaming, then select '' | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ===Track Discovery=== | ||
- | |||
- | On this page, you can play the first five seconds from each track to give you an idea of what the title of the track should be. | ||
- | |||
- | The beginning of the first track should automatically play when you open the page. You can also select the '' | ||
- | |||
- | Rename the section based on what the narrator reads. For example, if the narrator reads the title you will rename that track to Title Page. If you find a track that has a Part named, make note of what chapter that part starts at, as you will need that information when you apply the levels. Then simply name the track for the chapter only. For example, if the narrator reads "Part One: The Beginning, Chapter 1: The first chapter" | ||

- | * Select '' | ||

- | ====Levels==== | ||
- | |||
- | After you have renamed all your tracks and made note of the Parts you can now apply the levels to the audiobook. | ||
- | |||
- | Some audiobooks have multiple levels of navigation, and we can set these levels with Converter Plus. A common example is a book that has multiple parts with chapters divided within these parts. | ||
- | |||
- | For example: | ||
- | |||
- | * Part One: The Beginning | ||
- | * Chapter 1 | ||
- | * Chapter 2 | ||
- | * Part Two: The Next Part | ||
- | * Chapter 3 | ||
- | * Chapter 4 | ||
- | |||
- | < | ||
- | |||
- | First, you will need to identify the names of the parts through the main project page. | ||
- | |||
- | * In the '' | ||
- | * This should give you the name of the Part. Note: if the playback is cut off too soon, simply press play in the player at the top of the page to hear more of the track | ||
- | * Write down the part name so you can enter it later into the levels section | ||
- | |||
- | <note important> | ||
- | |||
- | Once you have the names of each section you can rename the levels | ||
- | Go to the '' | ||
- | * On this page, you will see all the tracks in order with text boxes beside them. | ||
- | * If a track is a top-level track simply leave the text box empty. For example, '' | ||
- | * If a track belongs to a section enter the name of that section into the text box beside the track name. For example, for track '' | ||
- | * Tab out of the box, and you will notice all the text boxes below get populated with this section title | ||
- | * You will then need to go down to the track in the list that starts the next section and enter the name of that section into the text box beside the track name. For example, for the next instance of '' | ||
- | * Tab out of the box and continue down the list until you are done. | ||
- | * Remember if there are any tracks at the end that require to be top-level, then simply erase any text in the text box and it will be assigned top-level automatically. | ||
- | * Once you are satisfied you have named all the levels correctly hit submit | ||
