Hi All,
Ok, just done a quick internal (from my bedroom (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) ) test, using "Fly Over" mode.... and yes, it works... (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) So MioMap now has TTS.... (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) What this means is that when driving, rather than it just going...

QUOTE
At the next road, turn left onto Bank Street
After 200 yards, go over the round-about and take the 2nd exit onto London Road Basically, giving you clearer instructions, so you know that you are aiming for the right road... rather than, is it going on about this exit or that exit????? However, one thing..... its not the best of voices, its kinda like Stephen Hawking's.... still, it will get better...

Hi Reaps,
Yeah, Robot voices are cool.... I have a couple with my TomTom (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) However, this one can be a little off putting... (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Anyway, yes, this software has been around for ages.. (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) sadly, working happier on other devices for a long time.... It's not until now that I finally got it working on the Gizmondo.... proof will be in testing it, as I've heard it to crash some devices on route (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) lol Anyway, other SatNavs that have TTS include... Destinator (another projector I got going (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).... Cheers, Lister |

Hi Wizzle,
Well, I have just come back from work this evening, and given it another test. As I've heard.... (apart from crashing) it also has some interesting routing styles too... (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) As always, my life is go, go, gooooooo.... and so as soon as I get in my car, thats it.... I'm off. So didnt not really pre-check the settings.... but it seemed like it wanted to send me in the oppersite direction all the time. Kept telling me to turn around or turn back. Anyway, once I got close to my address, it told me I had reached my destination, so I must of set it up correctly. I shall test it once again before I am fully happy with it. And I shall change the skin for a better one too... As for Puggles, I assume he has a valid licence for the software too (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) One other thing, it is fun to hear it read the road names out.... but its like Stephen Hawkings on speed (not that I condone drug use!) (IMG:https://gizmondoforums.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Cheers, Lister
