I need your advice on using the Andy Siddle voice with my tomtom programme. Is there anyone out there that can help me?
I have downloaded the programme from Rays tomtom site and inserted it into the map folder as instructed. I have changed the name of each AS file so that it matched the ov2 and bmp poi file

For example
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.ov2
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.bmp
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.ogg

Is this correct procedure or have I missed an important step?
Currently I can see the warning poi on my map as I drive but I get no sound.
I guess I have done something wrong because tomtom will still allow me to use their original sounds. Rays instructions say this cannot happen if the voice programme is running.

I am running tomtom 6 on an iPAQ 4700.

Look forward to suggetions. Thanks.

Hello afpe45

As you might have gathered I followed the instructions given on Rays tomtom site. so for example I entered the following

pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.ov2
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.bmp
pocketgps_uk_gatso_30.ogg

This would not work!

I noticed that looking at the ogg file I had ogg.ogg. My son tells me that Microsoft knew it was an ogg file and named it so...and so had I. So I entered pocketgps_uk_gatso _30 and hay presto problem solved.

I did note that any error that allowed the tomtom sounds to work stopped the voice working so double check everything.

See if the above works for you. Regards rabbitseggs
