Re: Including reader's name in the MP3 tags

id3 tags are not permanent. Or, they are just as permanent and public as the data that is displayed in the LV catalog pages. They can be updated, just need to re-upload the edited file. Take things down as in removing a reader's association with their recordings? But what if they had recorded their ...

Including reader's name in the MP3 tags

Is there a(n) (easy) way to add the reader's name somewhere in the ID3 tag in the final MP3 files prior to cataloguing? (Possible slots might be "Composer" or "Comment") It would be nice to be able to see who the narrator is with an easy glance, without having to go back and list...

Re: How to avoid the "I'm reading" voice

No one has to listen. (except the proof listener) Anne For my purposes (the reason for this post) I disagree with the idea that "no one has to listen, except for PL". Yes I understand that this is the LibriVox standard, but I'm (personally) shooting for a higher standard for myself. So my...

When you've been reading one unnecessarily long and complex sentence after another and you suddenly become aware that you're in the middle of yet another one and you have no idea where this sentence is going or how it's structured. https://librivox.org/uploads/bloopers/blooper_frustratingsentence.m...

I just noticed that section 17 is still showing as "assigned" instead of PL OK. Could you update the MW please?

thanks!
