Hi Jim,

I purchased my iPod 30GB video last week and am a relatively new iPod user. 
  I used the Voicebox program yesterday to create names of files and 
directories for the first time, and it worked without a glitch.    
  Below are steps to go about the process. This is based on how I performed the 
task:

  1. Download the script to automatically create the .talk files for folders 
and/or file names from here:
   http://rockbox.aplcycling.org/voiceBox.zip
  2. Extract the zip file to a folder on your computer. It creates a folder 
called Voicebox.  
  3. Run the voiceBox.hta file located in the Voicebox folder.   
  4. Follow the instructions on the screen. This includes selecting the 
folders/files that you want to be voiced in your iPod. Ensure that you have 
your iPod connected to the computer before you start this process. 
  5. Once you finish selecting your options, activate the Run Voicebox button 
by hitting the spacebar. 
  6. Once the procedure is completed, you will hear a beep. 
  7. In the voice settings of your iPod, change the option for speaking files 
and folders to 'While hovering'.  
  You should hear your iPod speak out the file and folder names.
  I am not too happy with the SAPI4 voice used for this purpose, but do not 
know how to change it to a different voice.  

  Geetha

  Hi Folks:

  Has anyone had any luck creating names and directories using the SAPI4 
Voicebox program?

  Cheers.
