 Posted: Sun Jul 06, 2008 3:14 pm Post subject: TT speed camera alert volume |
 |
|
Hi
I have just got a 520 and, for the moment, am using the TT speed camera alerts. The normal spoken directions are fine but the volume of the camera alerts is too low. I can't figure out any way to increase it. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks

What method are you using to warn when the camera is in range?
If you can use a computer voice and the option to read out a warning based upon what you have typed in the volume should be the same for the warnings and the navigation voice, that said I am not too sure what options you get for setting warnings up with the TomTom database as I only really use the POI sets from this site which are considerably more comprehensive and accurate - Mike |

...and if you are using one of the built-in sound effects you can replace it with a sound file you can add yourself. You put it in the "sounds" folder... it can be a .wav or .ogg sound file at 11,050Hz sample rate.
TomTom 'Home' also offers some sound for download, but beware as some are corrupted or even in the wrong format! |

The volume on my warnings is the same as the volume on directions. I use the camera data base from this site on all 3 of my TTs. I wouldn't bother with TT's data base, its a joke. How they have the cheek to charge for it is beyond me. Its not fit for purpose.

Yeah, I'm planning to get the PGPS one, but have been using the TT one for now. Using the standard 'Bell' alerts.
