Yes I'm using data.zip file. is dated 16/02/2020, 7225 Kb

I also use this data.zip but I can't find this alarm (speedcam_warn), sorry.

I also don't have this audio file, but looking in an ui_nextgen folder of an old version of Avic I found it.

The program searches for all the audio files that are scattered in the various folders and offers them to be able to set them.
The audio files are mainly found in the iGO / ui_nextgen / audio and iGO / ui_nextgen / audio / SCXXXX folder, in the data.zip in the ui_nextgen / audio folder and also in some plugins in the ux folder, for example in reached_your_destination.zip.

So I don't think the problem is that audio file, which by the way is set for Overspeed, but that he has not enabled "Use approaching beep" in the Alert Points menu related to that specific Speedcam:

1. In "Read TTS or Audio Speedcam" - Try by changing from TTS to Audio.

2. [autorad] must be disabled=1


3. If it is still wrong and, as @BIRBANTE adviced - You should check the enabling of "Use approaching beep" in all the Alert Types of spcams Selections.


@jorgeultra
For your ears ...

The dear friend BIRBANTE is correct in all his statements the only detail is that coukou as shown in the image of post #2650 configured !Alert6 for "approaching beep".
It is also clear that he is using TTS voice and in the Pongo archives of 21/05/2020 there is no speedcam_warn sound.
In addition to the reached_your_destination.zip ux the other ux that have the audio folder are: attractionsng.zip, driveralerts.zip, speedcam.zip and the_skin_by_pongo.zip
The data.zip file also has an audio folder.
So I'm suspecting that speedcam_warn has another origin and is not from the Pongo package.

To definitively end the question of [autorad] the correct one for users traveling through France the disabled parameter must be set to 0 (zero).

A suggestion
In the skin, in Saved Locations we have four options Home/Work/Other (exclude car) that can be defined and saved.
On selection lets say, HOME we still have to press Select as Destination and then Start Navidation for it wo work.
Cant it be simpler. When we press HOME/Work/Other, it just starts Navigation straightway.
Otherwise there is not much difference than selecting from option PLACES or HISTORY

Thanks

@aslbal
It's just a kind of shortcut in each catagory to have a few addresse easier to find instead of searching in the list but still,
before, the route has to be calculated first before navigation yes ?
Would be nice if it was possible to add one or two more addresses to each catagory but not more.

@rider, I cant remember which skin maybe WinCE (that i use) has this option. Once u select Home / Work / Other predefined, it calculates Navigation starts.
Like i said even in History we can save few favourite KMLS.
Having that option will be more of a safety factor, less selection of keys while driving.
Thanks
