Chapter and Verse

Chapter and Verse is an intuitive application, designed to help you create personalized audiobooks that can be played on your iPod, as well as iTunes and QuickTime. It allows you to add chapters at custom intervals, edit metadata and insert artwork.

Although the application can only create audiobooks from AAC files, it can also automatically convert other formats (MP3, WAV and WMA) using iTunes.

Once you have loaded a list of files, you can listen to them with the application's built-in audio player, automatically sort them or manually change their order.

Chapter and Verse features an Autobuild function that, when activated, automatically updates the virtual audiobook depending on the changes made to the input files and chapters.

You can add chapters at regularly spaced intervals, between separate audio files or at custom positions. These can be named and numbered automatically, according to certain specified rules.

It is also possible to assign images to every created chapter. This artwork is displayed when the audiobook is played on iTunes, QuickTime or iPods.

You can edit the resulting audiobook's metadata manually, download it from the internet or import it from an XML file.

If you choose to download the information, Chapter and Verse searches for it online and allows you to compare it to the existing file metadata. You can then choose which entries should be replaced. You can save project files that contain information about the current audiobook, chapter and metadata settings, then open them at a later date.

When the audiobook creation process has been completed, you can choose to have the application automatically add the output file to your iTunes Library.

Overall, if you need an easy-to-use application to help you create create audiobooks with custom chapters, metadata and artwork for iTunes, QuickTime or iPods, you should try Chapter and Verse.
