@CormacB thanx actually the link above to download voice and map was outdate I found this working one.http://www.hpsblog.com/2009/07/direc...0-without.html

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

@Cormac last update tell me that I failed to load voice.

" failed to load voice config.xml from english for language EN-GB "

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

Ah. I thought you were using an indonesian language setting but you are just using the usual english one. So much for automatic language detection :)

The solution is easy if you know how to use a text editor in linux. Open up index.html and replace the line

"en-GB": "english",


with


"en-GB": "indonesian",

If you have problems let me know and I will make a custom index.html for you.


Edit: I just realised that maemo doesn't support the same set of languages a ovi maps so most languages will require editing of the file :(

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

so ovi maps voice guidance only work an depend on maemo default language. cmiiw.
anyway I want to know what command u put at last after put my voice.
sorry my english bad. Im so sleepy.

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

No idea what you are saying, but the attached index.html will use the indonesian voices :)

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

Tested few and latest CormacB's index.html works perfect and POI fast. But still cant make voice navigation to work.
html folder contains index.html and english_us voice
/usr/share/nokia-maps/html/index.html
/usr/share/nokia-maps/html/english_us with all .wav files and config.xml still no voice.

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

I copied the sound files and ran the command "for f in *; do mv $f $f.wav; done" the folder english_male

but the files were not converted to wav
and i dont have any voice guidance

Update: managed to convert the files to wav but i still dont head any voice guidance

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

You can test your wav.files by Browser.
Launch microb Browser and then browse to
file:///usr/share/nokia-maps/html/english/english_male
Pick up some file. It should start your player and you should hear the voice

By that way I found my installation faults and got it working.

Thanks for everybody who have contributed this beta. It's good and actually quite easy to make work

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance (early development)
 

koijann: was it my version you got working?
ed00 & lifenexus: do you get a message about not being able to load config.xml?

I will work on a version with more error handling so it is easier to find problems.
