A solution for TTS pronunciation for Go models (Loquendo)

So far there is no way into v10 files, the system is locked to MyTomtom and does not show as an external drive when connected to the computer - so I keep reading.

There is something else that has been bugging me for some time, I have looked here and no one else seems to have mentioned it;
When I enable read signposts. TT will always say 10 etc for motorway junctions. disable the read singposts and it will say junction 10 as it should. any ideas on this ?? Confused

Any more details, Romanzauk? Is this on a NAV2 or NAV3 model?

Can you give an example of where it happens with start and end points for a demo route (preferably as Lat/Long coordinates).

Shows how I'm beginning to lose track...
I didn't even think the Go300 had got signpost display!
It doesn't have full Reality View (lanes and signposts) images now does it?

When you run hacked software on a model, you need to expect some surprising effects.

Hi, I've been looking at but not understanding any of the last 16 pages! Is there anything the average TT owner should be concerned about? I cannot even begin understand what the problem is and even less the solution.
Is there a quick fix for us less mortals or is it best left alone.

Basically, don't worry about it, '1304'! (snappy name!)

It was just a way to improve the way that the computer voices said some words, and was always far more of an issue in the US than here.

Andy did say the US, not Canada Very Happy

The very first basic thing for all Go models connecting to Home2, was to convert the cphoneme.dat file in the map folder to cphoneme.old. This deactivated it, but kept it available if you subsequently wanted to change back. The result of this change was to i) get the voice to read out B road numbers, and ii) improve some pronunciation, though others were made worse. On balance it was felt to be an improvement.
