Nintendo E reader

[rohar]

Thanks very much for the response and apologies for coming back at this late satge.

I have been trying to set up the DSiXl as a reader with mixed success and have finally come to a full stop.

I have all the necessary ingredients and have been downloading dslibris and dsreader from R4 and Sourceforge.

Initially i had somesuccess and was able to get dslibris working. In an attempt to improve the range of the programme I deleted all and now am unable to get back to the proper screens.

All I get is MENU and ?

Like you I prefer dslibris and have you come across Calibri, it is very informative.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

If you want to make it a more versatile ereader now, you will need a Flash Card, a micro sd card to store your content, and some software. You can buy a cheap DSTTi card (make sure you get an i version), and then you are free to use legal, homebrew applications.

On the flash card I reccommend DSLibris and DSReader. DSLibris is my favorite and supports epubs and XHTML formats. DSReader supports .txt format. Both allow you to adjust the font style and size, and also other screen options. However, DSLibris allows you to hold the DS like a book (why I like it the best), while DSreader only works with the standard orientation. They are both great, easy to use programs, and I have them both installed. There are other options out there, but those are the two that I find to be the best.

If you get one, let me know and I will help you set it up

Hi rohar

It might be best if you direct your problem directly to Noah98 through a PM -


I assume you've put "nintendo dsi" into the mobileread search engine and trawled through all the threads for ideas - problem may be that it is an unusual device for reading on these days ?
