[Athen] RFBD question of a tech nature

Susan,

I think you may be looking in the wrong folder.  The files you want to burn to CD are in the RFB&D Media folder, not the RFB&D Download folder.  See if that fixes it for you.

Subject: [Athen] RFBD question of a tech nature

We have started downloading DAISY books from RFBD this semester.  The instructions seem pretty clear and I have the downloader installed and have downloaded a couple of books so far.

However.  I cannot seem to figure out how to put 1.6 gb worth of files onto a 700 mb CD.  In fact, I know this to be impossible, yet the instructions clearly say I can burn these to CD.  I also noticed all of them are .zip files.  I anticipate students not really being able to use these files as intended on their DAISY players considering how they are being presented to me.

What the heck am I missing here?  I have sent a request for technical assistance to RFBD and got an "out of office" return message.  I need to get this resolved soon.  Anyone have some tips/procedures for me to use?
