Ok. So I tried uploading the test file to the test site but receive this error.

KB Error SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

As an FYI I did make sure to remove all tags. But still receive the error.

Hi Larry -

Sometimes the uploader gets a little cranky. Just try entering the URL again and entering the login and try to upload again. If you get the error again just wait a few minutes and then repeat the process starting with refreshing the URL.

Let us know if you continue to have issues - best to post the 1 minute test on the Listeners Wanted page and also if you are having issues too.

Hi larry, in these cases you can best try again the next day. The uploader sometimes rejects files for no apparent reason (at least i cant explain it), but it magically works again after a few hours. Thank you!

Great Lynda!
All pick ups were cleanly done. Thanks for your efforts. *Smile*

Carolin.
I'm not even sure how to research an answer to this question, so please tell me.
What is the prefered way (if there is such a convention, or by personal preference) to let you know when a time stamp needs to be changed?
I know you can do it manually, but am not sure how to communicate with you the need.

As always, Many Thanks!

Thank you for any feedback you may have.
Section 13 is PL OK!
Nicely read, Maria; your reading well flows!

If you would like, you may add a note to your signature, along the lines of "CC (constructive criticism) requested."
Please do not be upset though if you receive little detailed feedback. Prooflisteners are usually required to keep critique to a minimum, and other readers may not feel comfortable giving peer notes. *Smile*

Having said that, I DO hope to hear more from you soon; there are several other short sections available here on this project.
CERTAINLY, you are invited to narrate any length of story, but when just learning, it can be helpful to select sections with fewer words.

Thanks for your contribution!

Hiya, im not sure i understand exactly what you mean, but the best thing is just to post in the thread :)
That said, differences of a second or two usually dont matter much. The duration of the final product is calculated by the system, based on the file and not on the notes. We use the duration in the notes field to let the proof listener know what theyre getting into, and for a final comparison when the project is complete- sometimes files can get cut off in transfer and so we compare the length reported by the reader with the length calculated by archive to make sure this didnt happen.

Thanks, Carolin. You answered the question AND taught me something new!
