Andy's voice for the EU

etters · Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2010 2:36 pm Post subject: Andy's voice for the EU

Wow what a great DB I have downloaded every thing for the EU and it works great on my garmin 760 however I went out this morning to try it out, I heard Andy tell me that there was a Gatso ahead and the speed (great) but then about 2k further on where I knew that there was a gatso all I got was bong bong and no Andy, Could some kind person try to tell me why that was and were did Andy go. I know that I am 73 years old and maybe a bit thick but this got me going and I dont understand it. I did switch off the garmin camera's before i started so it cant be that.
regards

etters, Have you checked the location of your known camera on the submissions map? (Click on the big "We Need You" finger to the left of your question). If it is not there, that is why Andy didn't give you any warning. If it is there, I'm afraid I do not know enough about Garmins to begin to suggest why you got a Bong and not Andy.

Don't forget to submit the camera if you can't see it on the submissions map.

Sorry that was not the cause etters. I'll keep my TomTom nose out of it from now on if that's Ok? and leave it to the Garmin users to help you.

Can you identify which cameras?

Also when you upload the files using POILoader does each CSV file have a corresponding MP3 file?

i.e.
pocketgps_uk_gatso.csv
pocketgps_uk_gatso.mp3

pocketgps_uk_redlight.csv
pocketgps_uk_redlight.mp3

etc??

Hi paulB2005
when I downloaded the DB everything was ok I then downloaded Andy's voice unzipped them and then put them in the same folder as the DB as per instructions but then noticed that there were a lot missing, about half of them and not all the files had andy with them, however I opened poi loader and put them all on the garmin ok. I have just checked the files again and noticed that before I put the Andy voice in the folder all the voice files were there but when I put them in the same folder a lot were missing. i hope that helps

Well I have downloaded all the files again and have done the same thing as before, and now all the files are on. I will try tomorrow and see if it is any better, which I suspect it will be, dont know what happened but thanks to you both for help and will post again tomorrow after the test.

I have just returned from testing my Nuvi 760 with the Andy voices for the EU, after reloading all camera's and voices, I found that there is still a problem with some Gatso's. I am still getting the Bong bong instead of the Andy voice on some camera's but not on others, dont know the problem but I suppose that I will have to live with it as I do not know what to do now.

Double check Andy's question from above?

When you upload the files using POILoader does every CSV file have a corresponding MP3 file?

Hi AndyP
I have just had a look at all the files, and no they do not have all the files.
there seems to be 32 voice files but a lot more camera's some of them seem to have as many as three mp3 files and a lot have none at all.

Hi Andy_P
Thanks very much for all the info, I also downloaded the files again and got the same result as you, so as you say I will wait until you have sorted it out. As you cannot find the word provisional how about (pending) that might do, otherwise I really am not sure.
Look forward to hearing from you and thank you once again.
regards

Ha Ha I see what you mean. it was 1.52 in the morning here and I was in my thick mode. and here I go again. Can you put the words that you have anywhere in any sentence ie. can you make up a sentence with what you have?? if you can, can you add something like (Warning temporary mobile ahead) then a sound. but I'm sure that whatever you do will be great.
