At first sight the file does not seem to have familiar format but I can see its structure. This one seems to have about 60 implemented codes (places associated with some audio). I'll take a more closer look tomorrow.
 
^ Thanks bt84,

If this is a lengthy process, then dont worry.
I am already grateful for all your help so far, so if this is too time-consuming, then dont stress.

I don't personally know them. I just found several vendors online who are selling these so I asked if there is a way to download the file from them. A lot of the pens say they come with Afasy as one of the reciters (I believe that's who you want right?). Its weird why yours doesn't have it.

Most pens do come with Al Afasy on it. I was quite surprised when i realised that mine didnt.

Apart from this, the pen also has Sahih Bukhari and Muslim, tafseer (commentary on the verses in the quraan) and tajweed (pronounciation rules) - all of this is in arabic, which I am not able to understand well.
Which means that over half of the capabilities of this pen are wasted in my case : (

I had spent hours in the past trying to locate the direct manufacturer of this particular pen (vs the suppliers), but I have not been successful as yet.

I trust that if Im meant to find a solution to this, then it will become possible.
Otherwise, perhaps its not meant to be.....

JazakumAllah khair,
 
I have a guy who says he has the files. Which language / reciters do you want exactly? He can't send everything because its too large so only a few at a time. Let me know and we'll see if he actually sends them.
 
^ Wow, really?

Ok, here goes:

I only need one recitor: Sheikh Mishary Al Afasy
(My other favourite is Muhammed al Luhaidan, but I dont think he is provided as an option for these pens....)

Also: Tafseer, tajweed and hadith in english

^I would be happy with any of the above, if he has it available.

The dropcanvas.com seems to a great way to share files with others.
Perhaps he can upload them there and provide us with the link.

JazakAllahu khair!
 
I was able to extract individual files from 32990.DPR but they aren't in straight mp3 format. It seems it's been encrypted in some way and can be played only by the pen.

I hope you had seen the English translation of Quran reading at h t t p : / / w w w . a r o m a h . c o m / ? p a g e _ i d = 2 1 8. You can extract individual mp3 files from it and listen to them on you laptop while using your pen at the same time for listening to verses in Arabic. Or alternatively you can extract files from your favourite Sheikh Mishary Al Afasy's reading and listen to them in parallel with the English translation.

Thanks for trying bt84.

The quran pen was meant to help with memorising the quran (by being able to repeat a certain verse over while reading the quran), and ensure correct pronounciation.....as well as having the english translation and commentary of the verses available at the same time.

It doesnt look like this is going to be possible.... (unless brother Vito's contact is able to help out in shaa Allah).

Ive noticed other buyers complaining on-line, about not being able to download the required software as well.....
Its quite disappointing that they make so many empty promises : (

Thanks again for your help!

All the best
 
The pen simplifies the process but people were memorizing Quran long before the pens were invented :). You have the reading in Arabic, you have the translation in English and you can certainly do this with little effort without the pen. One way would be to create a playlist in your audio player (most players allow creating play lists) where you would interleave readings in Arabic with the translation. Then you could start the player and listen in Arabic immediately followed by the corresponding translation.

When you extract the mp3 files from two different tbl files you can notice that each file in one set has a matching file in the other, with the identical number portion but different prefix. For example, in 51893_Mishary-Bin-Rashid_05Jul12.tvd reading there is a file e002009.mp3 and in French translation 51910_French_11Jul12.tvd there is a file fr002009.mp3. The number portion 002009 tells you that the file corresponds to 9th verse of the 2nd Surah. The same applies to all other extracted files. So you can create a playlist for each Surah, and for example you can order the files in playlist for 2nd Surah as
e002001.mp3
fr002001.mp3
e002002.mp3
fr002002.mp3
etc

While playing a file in the playlist you can always press a Repeat key and repeat the verse in each language as many times as you like. While listening to the audio you can also have Quran at hand and follow the printed verses.

Of course this is just a suggestion, you will certainly find a way that best suits you.

Lol, yes I do realise that people were memorising Quran before the pens were invented : )

Thanks for the suggestions......it takes the fun out of the pen, but I will give it a try in shaa Allah.
 
These guys are having issues uploading the file. I gave them another website to try. It takes a while because they are on the other side of the world so the time difference doesn't really help. Hopefully this will work

Here is the English file:

http://uploadingit.com/file/ixfp3d1q3l2z3stm/32997engilsh.DPR


Try this out. They didn't want to upload the reciter because they wanted to see if this works first. Let me know

imsad Ive uploaded it onto the pen, but it doesnt seem to work : (

(Im assuming that this it is the file that enables ahadith to be read in english....)

Maybe the recitor will work?
In shaa Allah, Im keen to give it a try....

:jz:
 
They tried to upload the other file but they said its taking too long because of its size so they decided not to upload it. I can't say for sure but, if the translation file didn't work, chances are the reciter wouldn't have either. Sorry I couldn't help.

Hi Zaria and bt84,

I have also bought a Quran Rader Pen to help me memorise the holy quran.
I have downloaded .tdv files from the website that bt84 has mentioned and I want to convert them to .mp3 files,
so that I can listen to the Quran and the translation in my own language on my pc.

I have tried to dowload the tvd-to-mp3.exe and tvd-to-mp3xp.exe files but they have both been deleted from the filehosting servers.

Could you (Zaria or bt84) please upload these files again. (I am using windows7 btw.)

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much
 
:sl:

Unfortunately brother, the above files did not work.

I still have not found the solution to converting the on-line files to mp3 format for use on the pen.

In shaa Allah, if you can find a means to do so, please share it with us.

Thank you for your fast reply, Sister,

I just wanted to extract the mp3 files from the tvd file so that I can use them on my computer. To listen to them through an audio player program.

If you can please upload these conversion programs, I will try to extract the mp3 files from them. I will also try my best to see why it is not working on the pen itself. It might be that the converted mp3 files have a different bitrate or so?

Thanks in advance
