Standard video and audio Container: The audio track is played by M312 Ace, unless they are
encoded within the MP4 file to AAC; This is usually the case. Please note that MP4 files
require a certain initialization time.
Digital, compressed audio file used by iTunes. (Apple Lossless is not supported)
Digital video format of iTunes. Milestone plays the audio track of the video. Please note that
M4V files require a certain initialization time.
To listen to music, please activate the "Selector" button on the application "Audio". As described in the
chapter "Folder navigation in Audio", you can select your music files and play them. If you have found the
desired file, press the "Play" button. The same button will execute the pause function when it is pressed
again during playback. Use the arrow keys to move from one file to the next. Hold the arrow key to fast
forward or rewind. For example, if the "Right arrow" is pressed, the fast forward starts after about one
second. The fast forward speed increases the longer the button is pressed. If you hold the "Left arrow",
Milestone rewinds accordingly. When you release the arrow button, playback is performed at the normal
speed.
Note: In the "Local Settings"of the "Audio" application you can activate the random playback. Select it
first with "Mode" from the folder that contains the files you want to play in random order. Then open the
"Local Settings" and choose at random playback "Yes". M312 Ace then generates the file "RANDOM.YES"
and activated by pressing the "Play" button in the folder and its subfolders. If you go with the "Rec" button
up one level, and then press "Play", the files are played in the normal order.
4.1.3. Play Text
Audio includes a text-to-speech player that can read the following file formats:
Plain text file, saved in specific codepage (1250, 1251, 1252, 1253, 1254 or 1256). Unicode
Versions are not supported.
Standard Microsoft Offce Word Dokument. (DOCX not supported)
M312 Ace works with the powerful text-to-speech software from Acapela. This provides you with a wide
variety of different languages and authentic, natural sounding voices available.
Please note that when you play a text file, the file name will be read first. Then press "Play", playback of
the actual text takes place. When you open a file in .doc format for the first time, the conversion may take
a few seconds. Please be patient when using this type of file. The conversion process is signaled by a
ticking sound.
Dealing with text files is similar to music files. You can select the text file with the arrow keys and press the
"Play" button to pause. If you hold down the arrow keys, Milestone will rewind or fast forward. During fast
forward, you hear periodic clicks. With every click you jumped a step forward or backward. How big such a
step is, depends on the setting, which you can select during playback of the text file by pressing "Rec" or
"Mode". You have the choice between "Screen" (equivalent to approximately 25 lines), "Paragraph" or
"set".
