[Ct-nfb] VR Stream question

[Blindhands at aol.com]

I believe if you take out the memory card and turn on the stream the manual 
 is installed on the stream and by hitting play it will start reading it.   
When I first got mine that is what I did.  I am not sure where the file for 
 the manual is located, but when I first got the machine and before I put 
the  card into it I listened to the manual.

Hi Chris, 
 
I haven't used the Victor Reader in a litttle while, but I believe there  
is a play/stop  button, I think in position 5. There is also a way to  
advance by different levels - like chapters, or sentences, etc. I think that  
function is in positions 10 or 11. 
 
You could advance by chapters until you come to the one you left off on.  

You should have received a users manual on disc when you got the machine.  
If not, there is a phone number to call for help. 
 
After writing all this, I hope we're talking about the same machine - the  
Victor Reader Stream. 
 
Hope this helps. 
 
Janet

Howdy, Victor Reader users out in cyberland. Today I was listening to  
Nicholas Nickleby by Charles Dickens, a 40 hour book downloaded from NLS,  and I 
was about 23 hours in when I leaned against a chair with the stream in  my 
pocket, accidentally pushing the 'go to page' button, then exacerbated my  
mistake by hitting the fast forward button when pulling the unit from my  
pocket, sending me to the end of the book. When I hit 'cancel', it was too  
late, and I just went back to the beginning of the book.
 
Now, I only know the basics of the unit, but there must be a way to  'undo' 
what I just did, or if not, does anyone know how to advance the book  in 
hour increments, instead of 5 minute increments, which is  excruciating?
 
Thanks,
 
chris
   
PS - I know I should have locked the unit, but the problem with that is  
there's no way to pause it if the phone rings or if your lovely spouse  
decides to nag you about the mess you left in the bathroom...
