View Full Version : book marks in WMP10?

I am trying to listen to audio books from my local library on my SMT5600.

No problems downloading my first .wma file, but it contains 11+ hours of speech with no apparent chapters or sections.

I can't find any way to book mark a point in the wma file (like I can with Audible). Am I just missing it, or is this feature not in WMP10?

If WMP10 can't do this, are there other players that support wma and bookmarks?

Thanks

I moved your post to the software forum. I think it's a better fit here, and hopefully someone has some suggestions for you. Sorry, but I don't. I haven't really needed bookmarks, so I don't have any advice on this for you. Hopefully someone else will. :)

Not that this is going to do you any good right now, but...

The Windows Media Mobile SDK does support this. If someone wants to cook up their own player with bookmarking support this bit of sample code is a good place to start:

Making a simple player that was oriented around listening to books and other lengthy content (such as podcasts) would be a pretty simple affair - for a developer that is.
