easton Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 I hit the home button on the navigation to test it out, and noticed that there wasn't any "text to speech" of the street names. Is there some kind of setting I need to change for the speech to be on? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Settings-->Region-->Voice Language-->Select TTS file. It is there in the manual. I am not sure about if you would like TTS voice though( pretty bad), nevertheless give it a try.

SDIS3 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I don't mean to thread jack but have you found a way (or anyone else) to change the TTS to a better one? The voice is really awful... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The voice is really awful... I agree. This is really awful. Even 3 years old cheap portable NAV has better TTS voice than this. I thought I saw some modified Samantha TTS files some where in F-Series forum, but I can not seem to find those any more. I did downloaded some TTS voice editor softwares, but Pioneer TTS files are not compatible or supported by those editing software. I am still open, if someone can post link to an editor, or post TTS files, I can experiment and post the results. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
