I have just loaded the voice warnings for speed cams, followed all procedures and activated on my mitac mio, rebooted mio and new settings relating to voice warnings have not been saved. can anyone please advise me? am I saving to wrong place? had previously deleted all speed cameras and reloaded latest version direct into gb file, all seems ok until reboot.

Check you haven't accidently locked your SD Card.

can confirm that sd card was locked but after unlock I altered one of the speed cams to the appropriate warning and the change was not stored after ending program and restarting. Any more views please? appreciate help

The .bmp, .ov2 and .ogg files should all go in the appropriate map folder on your storage card.

sorry for the mistake, I should have posted on tt5 forum, I have the mio 168. I used the new system from Ray which installs the voice warnings into the data chk file in the programs/navigator file on palm. all the warnings work fine and I can put them onto the appropriate camera but when I close the program down and restart the program the warnings have not been saved (I have same trouble with saving home destination)
regards

I have moved the whole thread to a more suitable location.

Locate the file with an extension of .cfg (it will be in your map folder) copy this to the PC, right click it and select properties, untick the Read Only check box then copy the file back to your map folder. This will fix the POI warnings and the saving Home location etc.

I would look at using the ogg file method for warnings as this is easier than the data.chk swap and it works on TTN vs5, please try This Page for some details as to what you need to do - put the original data.chk back in place first though - I am some what confused when you mention Palm though as this is a different platform to the mio you started the thread with?

Please don't convert files to ogg type as this is not required, if you follow the instructions I gave earlier that will sort out the read only file problem - once this is addressed and fixed we can move on to the next phase.

The spoken camera warnings are easy to install and configure, follow the link in my post above and read the instructions, they will lead you to the ogg download page where you can select a file set and siply install the warnings which are supplied free of charge correctly named to match the speed camera database - Mike
