As this project is intended for personal/friends & family consumption (otherwise, copyright clearances would be a nightmare), I'm not so concerned about support on a wide range of platforms. What I'm getting more concerned about is the hardware requirements. As I mentioned, I used a small portion of the book to create an epub and imported it into (what I believe is) a fairly robust tablet (Lenovo A10-70f) and loaded it into Gitden Reader. To the limited extent that the media/popup elements worked in Gitden, it appears (now that I have played with it for a number of hours) that the tablet just chocks on the file. It takes a noticable number of seconds for some popup boxes to actually popup, and sometimes the content of the popup appears in the box a good number of seconds later (sometimes after the Close button on the box is pressed). If that's indicative of the hardware needs of a multimedia file like this, it would probably work (to the extent it does as a software matter) only on 2-in-1 tablet/laptop combos with I3 or better/8 GB ram hardware.
Imagine what would have happened had I tried to incorporate a video file as well...
