ebooks

 

Anyone know of a way to play ebooks that are not Garmin on a nuvi 350?

I uploaded an ebook but it doesn't work.

What gives?

Ebook

Do you mean eaudiobooks? My understanding is that the nuvi MP3 player only supports the MP3 format. Most of my eaudiobooks are wma. I know you can download free converters, but I haven't used one. Perhaps someone can recommend one.

WMA to MP3 Converter

I did not know most audio books were WMA format... thanks...I'll definitely check into it.

As for a WMA to MP3 converter.. Here's one I use...
It's a freebie...which makes it pretty great for me...

Jodix Free WMA to MP3 Converter. I don't remember where I got it, but you can google it.

Also you might want to look at Audacity.exe. It is not a converter, but it can be used to "dress up" a sound file. And it's a freebie also. You can google it also.

I like freebie... smile

Ebooks

Thanks. I get my audio books through my library which uses Net Library and the wma. I sure wish Garmin would accept both file types. Converting is a PITA.

You can also import .wma

You can also import .wma files into your itunes library and it will convert them if you have mp3 selected as the default file format.

Will the mp3 files play on my ipod?
