Problem to install TTS on IQ701

lduchene · 04-06-2011, 04:56 PM

Hi,
I downloaded one package (.pbi) from pb web site. The size of pbi is 75mo.

But the free space is only 30 mo on my pb. I can't install this .pbi on my SD card.

How can I install TTS on my PB ?

Thanks for your help,

lilian.

First, you need the 2.0.5 firmware.
If you do, you'll have plenty of space to work with.
You download the desired voice package, delete one you don't want in the settings app, and locate the new one in the file manager. Activate the package and it installs.
Then you too can listen to nicely pronounced sentences separated by 15 second pauses.

I wonder if it is usefull to install any TTS. I tried the english lady reading a piece for me.

1. It sounded horrible
2. Sometimes there is a severe stutter.
3. Worst of all, sometimes whole lines are skipped and read to you a few lines later, effectively mixing up the story for you.

Very nice, random words read out load for you ;-)

I don't think I bother to install a Dutch version, I'm afraid I'll die of laughter or frustration.

I install the new firmware 2.0.6 where TTS is already installed.
I added new languages as the US documentation explains;

TTS works fine !
