So I've always preferred Loquendo TTS voices compared to Nuance TTS voices - Loquendo TTS voices just sound so much more natural (less "computerized"). Loquendo 6 voices always worked fine in iGo 8, but I recently upgraded to Primo. In Primo, you have to use the Loquendo 7 TTS engine if you want to use Loquendo TTS.
The problem that I'm having is that in Primo 2.4, the "you're speeding" message can also say what the actual speed limit is (using the "%s" variable in dictionary.voice) - which is kind of nice - the *only* issue that I have is that I can't seem to get the Loquendo voices to say "miles per hour' instead of "M P H". For example, when speeding, instead of saying "Slow down - the speed limit is 45 miles per hour", it'll say "Slow down - the speed limit is 45mph".
This is only an issue with the Loquendo voices. The Nuance voices will correctly say "miles per hour" using the same map files and the same lang file.
I've tried adding the line:
- mph="miles per hour"
to the dictonary.voice file for the Loquendo voices (as well as m.p.h., mp/h, m/ph, etc) - and no matter what I do, it just says "mph" instead of "miles per hour".
I have a 2DIN setup in my office that I use for testing this kind of stuff (instead of having to run out to the car!). I've been testing using the voice 'test sound' (so when you select a voice, I have it say "45mph" - works fine with Nuance voices (says 45 miles per hour", but not with Loquendo voices (says "45mph").
Anyone have any ideas?? While it obviously not a big deal, I would like to get it working properly...
Thank you!!
Thank you!
