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

Sorry I haven't been on here more: I've been coding more at my day job, so I don't have as much interest in coding in the evenings right now.

You don't need to change the XML files to put in the...

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

I'm happy the language selection works for someone :)

Yes, I've noticed there is a problem with lagginess. This is partially to do with the lagginess of ovi maps itself. I find I need to overlock...

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...

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

In GuidanceModel._updatePosition the parameter is called data and I used data.position and data.speed. But the parameter is really an event which contains a data field! So the parameter should be...

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

Hmmm. Last night everything was working well, but this morning not so much.

It seems to work better when "simulating" by dragging the view around than when actually tracking the device position. I...

Nope, and I think one would have to decipher the map data to find the end of a street.

Argh, after some actual testing this is not working right at all. Somehow it only works for the road outside my office.

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance Beta!

I think calling it "beta" was a bit premature. I would not recommend trying this stuff yet unless you are a developer.

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance Beta!

Google Chrome wouldn't play the no extension files. Bizarrely it downloaded them.

I know just about nothing about sound on webpages: I copied the first snippet I found that worked :)

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance Beta!

I think you'll need to put the files in a webserver, not just read them from the filesystem.

This does not describe the text section as it is not interesting for speech.

Re: Ovi Maps Extra Features - Now with voice guidance Beta!

I found a slight problem with the python server: it doesn't set any cache control headers so "/Turn Left" gets cached :D
