Can you provide more information about the book you are trying to play please? 
This error message generally means there are problems with the files that 
comprise the book. Either the file 00000000.smil is missing from the same 
folder as the rest of the book, or the audio file it refers to may not be 
available. I'm guessing the problem is with the 00000000.smil file not being 
available. 

If you can provide a copy of the relevant 00000000.smil file e.g. by attaching 
it to this issue, or by pasting in a copy of the file, then I can help you 
investigate the problem further. Please don't post the file if you're not 
permitted to do so by copyright restrictions (but do tell me if this is the 
case so I know what's happening and can provide you with appropriate advice).

Perhaps you could also confirm whether you are able to successfully play other 
Daisy books using the DaisyReader program? e.g. one of the sample books 
available online from the Downloads section?

Hi Julian,

The book is from the Danish library for the Blind, NOTA, and it is, indeed, 
protected by a water mark somewhere in the book with my personal info as a 
member. So, I would prefer to send it to you in an e-mail. Could you tell me 
how I should go about doing this?

OK, I happen to work with some of the Nota development team, so if you tell me 
the details of the book e.g. the title and any reference number they may be 
able to help us diagnose the problem too.

Also, as requested my email address is julianharty - at - gmail.com You will 
need to replace the - at - with the @ character. I assume you're familiar with 
this sort of substitution.

I hope this issue is now fixed with r282 of the source code 
http://code.google.com/p/android-daisy-epub-reader/source/detail?r=282 and with 
the current latest release of the DaisyReader 
http://android-daisy-epub-reader.googlecode.com/files/DaisyReader-283.apk

Please can you confirm the problem has indeed been fixed for this book (and the 
player still works with your other books :)
Thanks

Julian
