Pipeline
Hello, I am considering using Audacity and the Pipeline to convert cassettes to DAISY 2.02. I find that I can make a valid DAISY 3 version of the Audacity project using the pipeline but when I try to use the DAISY 3 to DAISY 2.02 BETA I get an 'UNEXPECTED ERROR' Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Thanks in anticipation. Phil.

The Pipeline doesn't support this workflow at the moment. The DAISY 3 book produced by the Audacity converter creates an audio-only (aka NCX-only) DTB, but the DAISY 3 to DAISY 2.02 converter supports only full-text full-audio DAISY/NISO 2005 DTB. You would have to find an alternative, perhaps importing the audio-only DTB into an authoring tool like Obi and then export it to 2.02 using Obi's built-in functionality. Romain.

Hi Romain, Thanks for the clarification. I will try your suggestion with Obi. Phil.
