I've tried increasing the volume factor to 100% as it was set on 25% and it hasn't resolved the hissing problem. I don't like the other voices but I will have to put up with another voice as this hissing is rediculous. It's really making it's presents felt.

I have successfully installed Talks and Eloquence onto my Nokia N95 8GB phone. I must say the quality of speech is much improved. I've left the volume factor for the phone speaker and headset at 100 percent and there is no crackle or hiss. One problem I have is when trying to play downloaded podcasts. when I have the audio priority set to 2 Talks keeps repeating the elapsed time and I have to mute speech to hear the file. My phone uses its music player when playing files opened from the podcast client and file manager. If I set the audio priority to 1 I hear the file but Talks is still repeating the elapsed time. I can play music files through the music player. I didn't have this problem with the previous version of Talks. any suggestions most welcome. thanks in advance. Best wishes, Clive Pallett
