tldr: wrong bitrate in librivox software but checker ok means, that the files specs are ok and you don't need to edit the files - they will upload just fine!

Thank you. I hadn't seen that. I just saw the files failed and as I was headed out for the day did not have time to investigate further. It's the first time this has happened... I'll try uploading and see what happens 8-)

Edit: I see now they are 129 instead of 128. That doesn't usually fail the tests we run. If that's all it is, everything should be OK.

All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/six-little-bunkers-at-grandma-bells-by-laura-lee-hope/

Please note that not all chapters look right at Archive yet... this should sort itself out within the next couple of hours.

Hi Lynnet and Schrm - When I verified Chapter 18 , it showed as 128 in my checker. it shows as 128kbps 44,100Hz Mono.
Should i do something before the next upload? Just want to make sure I am doing the right thing.
Thank you :)

this is the important answer:

Don't worry about it -- it is a bug in the system that has been showing up since the last update. I was in a hurry and didn't have time to check things out properly before heading out.

uh no, sorry but that is quite not true :-D
so far, every one of my mcs asked back because of these files - with great power comes great responsibility and nobody is too perfect to ask...
:-)
and i ceased to write with every pl result "checker and pl ok" - i should do that..

so heads up lynne and thank you for the great and fast work you did with this book!
:9:

...and now im silent...

This is something that has been discussed is the admin forum. We need to check every time, but since the last update, our validation checks have been showing some files at the wrong bitrate due to a bug, blip, whatever you want to call it. It has only been happening since the last update. What I stated was true, even if I cannot explain it in technical terms.
And yes, I was hurrying out to visit my daughter 8-) I had hoped to set the cataloguing process going before I left (it takes at least a couple of hours after pushing the button, usually... that part is out of the MC's hands) but when errors were thrown up, I did not have time to investigate. Oftentimes, this investigation and sorting out takes over an hour per file. Now I know that in this case, it would not have done. I did not know that at the time.

ok, four sentences: still, you did your work properly!
if you were stressed, it was the best thing to do...
and i answered, eg. (me,who didn't post checker ok each pl...)
and i enforce my thank you! :-)
