Haven't heard much about how good the voice recognition is.


Recommended Posts

One of the major reasons why I wanted to upgrade to the F-Series.

 

mine's weird. it understands 'change source to {whatever}' and can do the dial pad but the 'play artist {whatever}' and phone calls are just awful.

 

Same here. "Change Source to ..." works. "Call " works. "Play " works. But "Call " doesn't.

 

Oh... and no GPS Voice recognition. So you can't tell it to "take me to sexy mama". Sadness....

From what people are saying, it works pretty well for all the things it was meant to do. There are a couple of small problems, but they're not that big of a deal, and could be fixed easily when Pioneer issues a firmware update.

 

The biggest complaint I've heard is that it only works with bluetooth and ipod/sd/usb, and not with the navigation... but it's not like that's because there is a problem with the system or anything, it was never meant to be used with it. Most likely because the navigation features weren't meant to be used while the vehicle is in motion in the first place, making voice recognition useless in that case.

 

Also, 2000th post!!!!

voice recognition worked for me....once...

 

"play artist pennywise" was the only time it worked. It hasn't worked ever since. Even when I tried saying pennywise again. I hope they get this VR Catalog thing fixed so we can take advantage of what the F series is supposed to be all about.

same here...i got it to play artist disturbed, system of a down, and kashar. then i took it for a spin to check out the nav features and an error msg came up saying reconnect the ipod. since then it hasnt worked...and my fiance's wouldnt work at all. we tried taylor swift, brad paisley, etc (shes a country lover) we just got that "sorry....i didnt get that...".. i swear, that annoying voice is gonna follow me to the grave.
