Mobile Vista 1.3 (cooked 3.14 ROM 19209) - Text to Speech

[championc]

Is Text to Speech a feature of WM6.0 (or 6.1) or was this something that you bundled into this ROM. It could be very useful especially while driving when messages are read out but is there any way to slow her down - she speaks at a rate of knots and so I find it very difficult to hear unless I was ready and waiting for the message.

please post in the appropriate thread. Stu is more likely to see it there.

I appreciate where you are coming from but I felt that the original thread would be more suited to installation difficulties (as indeed the latest message is) and also, since I have no idea if this is a Stu special or a general feature. I tried searching for "text to speech" but never turned up anything

The "text to speech" software is Microsoft Voice Command 1.6. One of the standard features is to read out incoming calls, texts and e-mails (subject and sender). It was included in the leaked AT&T 19209 ROM and I left it in there for my ROM. There is a reg entry that slows down Voice Command's speech but I don't remember it off the top of my head. I do remember it's on the "Pocket PC Tweaks" website so you might have to Google.

Just to back up what P1T said, I do look at my ROMs thread whenever I can (and more than I look outside it) so any questions should be kept in an existing thread if you can. :)
