This forum is to report, and check (everyone is encouraged to help check!), technical problems with LibriVox files, such as:
- problems downloading
- significant deviations from the text
- truncation of files
- corrupted files
- bad links
- bad metadata (file names, ID3 tags)
- inaudible audio
- etc.
Also please note, Archive.org hosts our files and occasionally has hiccups. Often download problems sort themselves out after a day or two, so if you have troubles with a download, the best thing is to check again later.
