Thanks, it installs fine.
Was able to try it out for the first time tonight.
Selecting the folder manually worked well.
However...
It doesn't remember where in the file I stopped playing (like Panucci does).
The stop/start button at the bottom sometimes said stop when it was stopped and play when it was playing.
The forward/next/back buttons are not large enough to be finger friendly if that was the intent. The UI is simple (which I don't mind) but arranged on the screen in a rather unpleasing way.
It also didn't display what min/sec I was at..out of how many min/secs in total.
To sum up my first impressions:
I feel like a debbie-downer but I feel that the most efficient way would be to enhance Panucci with the option of selecting a folder to play. That would give a full-featured audio-player capable of playing audiobooks in folders.

Thanks, it installs fine.

Edit: Oh yeah, awb files are MUCH smaller than MP3s.

Hi all-
I just installed 8.1.0 and it seems the icon did not get uploaded correctly and is just a white square. Everything else seems to work as it did in 8.0.3.

Can you spell out in the manner of Maemo for Idiots just what you do? Is the "*" an "*" or does it stand for something? I take it that "book" is the name of the book, but is it a folder, too? Are you running this command from the folder where the "book.m3u" folder is? Have you pre-made such a folder or is it created by this ls command? You get the idea: I'm not looking to get those questions answered but just to get a clear Idiot's guide of a step-by-step.
Thanks!!

Also, although development on Panucci for Diablo has appeared to come to a halt, there is a Panucci 0.4 that requires some manual installation hurdles, but supports adding a directory.
