Hi, I'm using a Nokia 6680 with TT5MV5.2. Mostly it works fine but occasionally when a voice camera warning is followed by a voice traffic direction, the 2nd voice (currently Liz) becomes a drunken bass.

My guess is that it is the processing power of the 6680, however any ideas on how to correct?

Regrads, John

Ive only noticed that problem when i use the comedy voices but i guess its probably the processor power as you said.

You could try reducing the burden on the hardware by altering the bmp images for the cameras, I have seen a few posts where people have resorted to flattening the images to just pure black and white, this reduces the file size considerably - Mike

Thanks, both, for your suggestions. Mike, does the bmp have any effect with the voice in use? I'd assumed it was only read from the memory card during voice selection. But, I started getting unexplained crashes when I had 7/8 comedy voices and it is much more stable with only 3.

Similarly, do unselected POI categories affect the phones/TTM5 performance? Once again I'd assumed only selected ones, but now you've set me wondering.

Hammer, I think I'll run with the standard Jane for a bit and delete the others off the memory card and see what effect that has.

Thanks for the ideas, guys.

Regards, John

The only way I cured this was to unselect all POIs in the "Enable/Disable POI" section - you don't need the speed cameras enabled to be warned - just select the speed cameras in the "Warn when near POI" section
