Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 10:48:29 -0400 I think personally I would prefer having the music pause while accessing the WPS menu, but I would also be ok with lowering the volume of the music so that the voice was easily heard. Kind of the type of thing you hear disc jockeys do when talking over any music they have playing. I think they call it "ducking". --Best regards, --Rick Alfaro --rick.alfaro_at_comcast.net -----Original Message----- From: rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se [mailto:rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se] On Behalf Of Rocker Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 10:48 PM To: Rockbox Subject: Re: Need opinion about voicing for software codec targets Hi Brandon you wrote: The current playback code plays the voice clips mixed with audio if you are playing audio. Is this good, or would it be better to play the voice _instead_ of the playing audio? You are referring to the WPS right? I love the quick access to the menus from the WPS with the voice UI. Pausing the playback would be nice as long as it won't slow down the whole process to much. I'm use to hearing both the file and voice simultaneously but I do rewind after accessing the menu from the WPS so pausing or muting would be better for me. Even directing more of the volume to the voice UI would help so the spoken menus can be heard easily. hth...rocker ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brandon Low" <lostlogic_at_lostlogicx.com> To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 7:03 PM Subject: Need opinion about voicing for software codec targets The current playback code plays the voice clips mixed with audio if you are playing audio.

I'm about to start working on getting voice into a releasable status on swcodec, so I'm interested in opinions on this before I get too deep into it.
