I have several ogg files that I can use on my TT GO 950.

Is there anyway I can test them to see how they sound?

Thanks for that.

I have just downloaded the codecs for Windows 7 Media Player and that works OK as well.

So I can now:

1. Download and install the ogg files.
2. test them whilst on the computer

I must now (if all goes well) set up the GO 950 to use them. I have read and digested the instructions given in the link given in another post.

My only remaining question is can I test the voice output on the GO 950 without taking it out on the road for a test run? (It seems not).

Once a route is planned and you are at the route summary screen, click on 'options' and one should be demo.

If you play that at 400% or less, you should hear the voice, recorded or computer, depending upon the voice you've selected.

That sounds a great solution.

This is a great forum and now I have reached the point where I almost expect to get a helpful reply within a day or so.

Please keep up the good work.

I didn't want to praise too much because it might swell your egos too much.

Quite often I have has replies "before the ink was dry".

We hear so much about the loss of community spirit - well here's an example of a great community.
