Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2005 14:01:14 -0600 Well, I've seen jaws describe some pictures on certain web sites. For example, lets say there is a picture of a lab sitting by a pool, I've seen jaws read yellow lab infront of a pool. Now, I wrote another list asking how this works. I'll forward a response. As for playing movies, some players have the capability to store movies, I'd like rockbox to read the titles when scrolling down so you can pick one, and watch it. I mean if this is a feature on the new IRiver players. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Manuel Dejonghe" <limbus_at_gmail.com> To: "Rockbox development" <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2005 12:41 PM Subject: Re: iRiver audio hardware The fact one of the voices sound familiar is most probably the fact that jaws is installing one of the already existing text-to-speech-engines. For the rest, I feel like missing something. What would you expect to HEAR when a picture is displayed ? Manuel On Thu, 6 Jan 2005 12:19:48 -0600, Sarai D.
