I did every thing you said and it doesn't work. I used WinZip, and your
right, it has several folders. Under the lang, English is one of several
choices. I added the voice file, but still no luck. Not sure what I am doing
wrong.

Sarai,
Again, I don't have a recorder, but I believe the file for those units is
called ajbrec.ajz . This file should be placed in the root directory of
your unit. Off of the root diredctory you should have a .rockbox directory.
If you don't have punctuations turned on with your speech, there is a period
in front of rockbox. Under the .rockbox directory, there should be at least
a langs directory. In the langs directory you should have the files
english.lng and english.voice.
Actually, if you use Winrar or Winzip to extract the archive you downloaded
for your model to the root of your archos device, those folders along with a
few others should already be there and all you have to add is the
english.voice to the .rockbox/langs folder.
Hope that helps...
Best regards,
Rick Alfaro

I think I did it wrong. I used these steps you posted. I created both sub
dirrectories and pasted the language file in to the language directory. Now,
I think I messed up when I copied the recorder file to the Archos. I'm not
sure. Sarai and Rosie, Proverbs 3:5,6 "Trust in the Lord with all your

Hi.
Sorry, but I don't know how to make the instructions any clearer than they
already are. Didn't you say you already had installed RockBox on your
device? Basically, you are doing the same thing here, but using a later
version, and installing an additional file called english.voice. I suggest
you go to the web site given in the instructions and browse around there. I
think you will find there are some good FAQS that may help you. Since the
Voice stuff is still technically a beta version, there isn't a whole lot on
using the voice menus, but once you get them installed, most of it is self
evident.
Best regards,

My questions are below. I am a newbie to this type of thing so be patient.

Sarai,
Below, I have pasted in a message that Aman posted to the list quite some
time ago outlining the instructions for enabling a full set of talking
menus, and folder and file navigation. I just did this myself, and it
worked great. I now have an Archos with talking menus.
---snip snip---
Hi.
This seems to be somewhat on topic, and I've received a few requests to send
this info, so I'll send it to the list. To activate the talking menus, you
first need to download the daily build of RockBox. This is not the stable
version 2.2, but a later build, and is available at
http://rockbox.haxx.se/daily.shtml
Make sure to download the build for your unit, whether Player, Recorder, FM
Recorder, or Recorder V2. Then install it as you would any other version of
RockBox. "How?" Make a .RockBox directory on your Archos, expand the zip
file into that .RockBox directory, and copy the archos.mod file (player), or
ajbrec.ajz (recorders), to the root of your archos. "Again, how do I do
this?" Now download the english.voice file from
http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/speech/voicefont/english.voice
Make a langs directory inside the .rockbox directory on your archos and put
the english.voice file into that. "Huh?" That is, the path to the
english.voice file should be j:/.rockbox/langs/english.voice Assuming your
archos is assigned drive letter J. Now disconnect your archos as usual, turn
it on, and hit menu. You should have talking menus. Stay tuned to the
rockbox list, subscription information for which is on the Rockbox site, for
future improvements. Aman
