Thank you, I have downloaded the glob TTS but it only alert me speed camera & incidents and other alerts in kilometer, is there anywhere I can change the kilometer toi miles?
Thanks

Of course you can change to miles. Go into Glob preferences and in "Info Bar" parameters select "Miles" in "Kilometers or Miles" option.

The TTS plugin will use this value. If it's not working tell me and I'll have a deeper look in the code to see what's wrong with this.

The app cannot find the newly downloaded glob tts because when I went under advanced settings for the and under Auto Launch..it says "plugins not found" so how would the plugin in work with it, if it cannot recognize or find it?
Thanks

"Auto Launch" is an other Plug-In for for Glob which is totally different from the TTS Plug-In.

I developed several plug-ins for glob. As I can see you're a bit confused here is a little summary because I think you're not the only one.

Search on the market with key "monthorin" (my name) and you'll find Glob and the other plug-ins.

- Auto Launch plug-in will start and stop Glob when plugging or unplugging your phone to the car charger.
- TTS Plug-in gives alerts using a voice and not a MP3 or standard "bip bip" sound
- LiveView Plug-in tu use Sony bluetooth remote control LiveView to notify and see alert on this lovely little device.

So now back to your question.
The "plugins not found" message when selecting "Auto Launch" in advanced section is because you didn't install the "Auto Launch" plug-in.
If you want to enable TTS go to "Sounds" section and select "TTS" in "Sounds for alerts"

I hope I answered your question. If not feel free to insist ;-)

Is there an English version of the user manual available? Too large for google translate.

Ok I'll have a look today to see what's wrong. I think I will deliver an update of TTS plug-in next week anyway.

Sure

1) I have never seen collaborative traffic work. Even though it says there are 500+ users around me, if I turn on collaborative only, i see no traffic generated by other users. I would expect to at least see a few blips on the road when zoomed out.

2) Is there a way to specify whether something is a speed trap, speed camera, or red light camera? I see only the one button in lower right marked "50".

3) What is the meaning of the number "50" on the button?

Thanks for the help. Excellent idea and very clean app.

sic0048 · Feb 17, 2011

"50" is really "Five -Oh", as in the police. You use that button to report a speed trap. The other button is for other things causing a delay like road construction or an accident.

I too have not seen collaborative traffic work. There is never any other people's tracks even while I know there are some other users in my area by looking at the real time traffic users on the web site.

I'd be curious to know what the number of users represents too. Is it the number of users within a set distance or the total number of users everywhere?

New release on the market (2011-02-18) :

Version 1.0.72c (Code Version 98 and 99):

Evolutions:
- Add a widget to display road condition without being obliged to start Glob.
Improvements:
- Gesture detection is less sensitive.

As this software is free it's success only depends on comments on the market. Can you rate and comment my app on the market?

I had a look to my code and I don't see any reason why it's not saying "Miles".
Did you try from the "Test" option in TTS plug-in preferences or did the application warned you while driving and said Mile instead of Kilo?

loick · Feb 18, 2011

moontz and sic0048,

Where are you so I can check if I have a bug in your area?
The number like 500+ is at 500 km arround you for sure. I'm working on a filter to be able to chose lower values.

From the Test option in TTS plug-in and since I installed the plugin in I have yet to see the application talk while driving...also is it possible for this apps to trap police car?

Thanks

Ok so it's "normal" that the test from the preference is not saying miles but it will while driving.

Of course this app will warn you while approaching police trap if other users declared it's presence using the "50" icon ;-)

Fiezta · Feb 18, 2011

Thank you, so the other users must declare it first and how can I also declare it myself for other users and how do you use the 50 icon?

Did you install Glob - Traffic & Radar 1.6+or only the TTS plug-in?

You need the two applications installed then launch Glob and you'll see the two icons on the bottom of the screen.

- Tap Triangle to notify other users for accidents.
- Tap 50 sign to notify speed traps or police presence.

Once it's done any other user having my application will be aware ;-)

Fiezta · Feb 18, 2011

ok, I will download both apps...thanks

Fiezta · Feb 18, 2011

I typed in both tap triangle and tap 50 and nothing showed for them in the market? please what is the phrase to find these apps?

Thanks

bberryhill0 · Feb 18, 2011
