This may sound silly, but what voices do i put to what cam? i mean some of them say 30, 40, 70, how do i know which voice to put with the correct speed cam.

I've installed the camera files and new warning sounds and it all worked fine using the superb instructions from the Pocket PGS Team - THANKS GUYS!

One appeal I would make however is to have at least one non speedcamera related warning sound to use with other POIs...... the buggle would be good as I used to have that to tell us when a decent pub or petrol station was nearby. Maybe replace the Gatso 20 mph warning? there are so few 20mph limits and associated speed cameras that this one can't be that vital for most of us. Nobody should be speeding in a 20mph zone anyway as they are usually outside schools and anyone getting caught out by a camera at low speeds needs better glasses not a warning device Rolling Eyes

Any chance of a new version of the sound data.chk file with one general warning sound instead of one of the less used speed camera warnings? Pretty please :D

It would be fantastic if we could get a sound before the spoken alerts polite 2 would be great
Is there any chance this can be done ?

There's always a chance... Anyone know of a good program that can merge OGG files together?

Wavepad from NCH Swift Sound is free and feature-rich:
(http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/index.html) handles OGGs and also gives you a visual representation of the sounds for precision editing.

You may need the 'Masters Edition' to handle OGGs - I'm not sure if they are covered in the free version.

There is no batch utility but if you are only merging half a dozen files for the POI warnings, this shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Best,
TTTim

It may be feature rich but it needs to convert everything into WAV...

Anyhow, I have changed one of the sounds. Let me know which build you need, and for which device.
