The .ogg file name must match the .bmp and .ov2 file - I will post a full list later.

This will depend upon the camera download you are currently running, so I have listed three sets of file names for the ogg sound files:

For those using the Single file download:

pocketgps_uk_sc.ogg

For those using the consolodated by type file download:

pocketgps_uk_gatso.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile.ogg
pocketgps_uk_redlight.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs.ogg
pocketgps_uk_temp.ogg

For those using the Speed Zoned file type download:

pocketgps_uk_gatso_20.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_40.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_50.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_60.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_70.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_tba.ogg
pocketgps_uk_gatso_var.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_20.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_30.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_40.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_50.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_60.ogg
pocketgps_uk_mobile_70.ogg
pocketgps_uk_moblie_tba.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_20.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_30.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_40.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_50.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_60.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_70.ogg
pocketgps_uk_specs_tba.ogg
pocketgps_uk_redlight.ogg
pocketgps_uk_temp.ogg

Use the above as a tick list to compile your file list, most of the above are available already, only the mobile 20 and gatso 20 require creation for a full set.

Thanks. Done it - now to try it!

Can someone recommend me a programme that will make an .ogg file for say a .wav so I can try putting one in for Witherspoons!


Try this (shareware)

4Musics WAV to OGG Converter v2.1

Convert WAV to OGG in one click!

The beauty of using 4Musics WAV to OGG Converter is that it works from the right click menu on a file. You do not have to invoke a whole other program to convert WAV to OGG.

Simply right click on the WAV, select "Convert to OGG"! As easy as 1, 2, 3!

What is a WAV? This is an extension for Wave Form Audio File Format. WAV files are huge data files that take great amount of disk space. That is why you need to convert these huge WAV files to OGGs and therefore you need 4Musics WAV to OGG Converter.


You can use this full-functional program without any limitations during 15-day trial period absolutely free.
What's benefit after registering:

* you can use the program without any limited time;
* full individual support : you receive answers to all your questions about this program;
* delays between files during converting are totally removed;
* your purchase will help us to develop the program in future.

http://www.4musics.com/wav-ogg-converter.htm

Tried it, very easy to use.

Also, while I am on a roll, try this site to create digitised voice files (text to speech)

http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php#top

I made some for Tesco and Morrison supermarkets and it sounds ok.
Just type in what you want the POI sound to say.

As a footnote to the above post, just tried putting the (correctly) named ogg files in on my phone:

Details are:

Imate SP3 Windows Smartphone.
TT Mobile 5 v5.200 (4450)
Put the original data.chk file back in.

DOES NOT WORK on this setup, can only select the original sounds.

Once you put the files in to the folder you then need to go to Warn when near POI and select each POI category at a time, the action of re-configuring the POI warning appears to activate the new settings (this worked on TTN5,21) - not tried it on the mobile version as I don't have access to it - Mike

Just one other thought, for TTM the sample frequency of the .ogg files should be 16000Hz - I doubt it is this that is giving you the problem though - Mike

Ok, thanks

I have a curiousity question - Why would you choose anything other than "only warn if on route"? Why would you want to be warned of something not on your route?


One reason is that you will get a warning even when not following a route.

i.e. If you generally don't need directions to get to your destination, but DO want to be reminded of camera locations.......

I think you also have to go through and disable the old warnings first then re-enable them

Brilliant Just installed this on my TT5 using Liz's voice..... :D :D

Sounds better than the bells hoots and whistles..... :P :P

Might be worthwhile placing the ogg file sounds in the POI section of the website...just an idea...

Hi Guys,

I have been having a good old play with this and could have some great fun too. I started doing POI alerts a few weeks ago and they are already popular. Now with this the uses are endless.
Just to help you guys out try where you can, to record in OGG as the quality is better. If you get any problems just email me and I will happily convert it for you.
The alerts that i have already ie the Ozzy stuff and others just rename them accordingly.
Ok just one more thing I am sure many people are now putting new sounds etc on there TT so please let me know what kind of sounds you want for alerts, as I have a huge bank of files amased over the years.

Hope you are all well.

Regards

Stuart

Yes, I did that, only the original sounds, eg, bell, cow etc were available.
The ogg files were encoded at 22050hz though, so, I will try later with 16000hz ogg files.

Just tried 16000Hz ogg files, no success with those either.

I will try and get hold of a smart phone and try this later, but perhaps it only works using TTN, I will post later if I find anything on the Smart Phone.

For those of you trying this on TTN version 5 please remember the POI limit is 39 so don't get too carried away loading POIs.

For version 6 devices you can go up to 100 POIs.

This also overrides any TTS setup on the Go-910, but it wipes the entered text so if you decide to revert back to TTS style warnings you will have to delete the ogg file AND re-enter the associated text. The one big plus point for me is the red light warning which I never got to sound quite right using TTS, the ogg file is fine so I am using a combination of TTS and ogg warnings - Mike
