Modifying voice instructions

When you approach a roundabout (rotary/traffic circle) then voice  instructions are given 800, 300 and 100 metres prior, but only the very last one tells you which exit to take. It would be much better if the 300 meter announcement would contain the complete instructions, including the number of the exit to take.
 
So now we are going to change the voice instructions. The voice file is stored in the map voice, every zip file is a voice you can select in I-go or Miomap. In the zip file you find an file called commands.csv. We have to modify this file, extract this file to yoour pc with full file path. after the modifications we have to add this file to the zip file also with full file path.

Look for following line in the file:
,"300[equal,minsilence=10,if_not_2]","*prepare_to_enter_roundabout",
"prepare_to enter roundabout in %dist"

Replace this line with following:
,"300[equal,minsilence=10,if_not_2,exit]","*enter_roundabout_exit",
"in %dist enter roundabout take %exit exit"

Now we have a voice command in 300 meters prior to the roundabout telling which exit we have to take.

Great articles, need information for modifying maps if possible for country use where detail is poor or non existant. I am in Australia and there are vast areas not properly mapped. Need help with map updates etc.

Very Interesting, is the commands.csv file syntax explained in more detail somewhere ? I'd like to do some adjustments - for example when leeving highway, miomap first notification is "in 300 meters..." which is a bit late. I hope this can be improoved by modifying the commands.csv...

I would love to be able to remove some prompts. I am a bit annoyed at the amount of prompts for exiting, turning etc. I think two or three seem ok but the last two prompts are too close together and too annoying and distracting. Can i achieve this by removing a few of the lines like ,"50 ,"200 etc?

I am also getting a bit annoyed by the numerous prompts,, particularly in town,
so i have done some modifications to the commands.csv and file,
I think I have understood the basic genral structure of the file, but I would not know how to explain it,
all I can say is : always keep backups of your zip files , because if you make mistakes the whole "miomap" software can fail to start,,


does anybody here know the meaning of the keywords [more, minsilence=3] ?
