Hi Carol
She says "Good evening"? First I've heard of that, she obviously doesn't
say it to us either then, or "Good morning", or "Good afternoon" for that
matter, (smiles). I know when she is on because the channel jumps from
whatever it happens to be on through the built-in Freeview or Sky to
TVonics, and once I get that clearance, I can then go to the EPG or
library.
When I press the stand-by button after use, she does say "Entering
stand-by".
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Most times this works for me also, but sometimes we know we've left plenty
of time and still she won't say "Good evening"!
Anyway, we're just treating her with care, not rushing her and being very
thankful we have something onto which to record - at last!

One thing I have noticed is that pressing buttons on the remote during
the Tvonics boot up significantly increases the likelihood of getting
no speech. A quick turn off
(standby) and on again always works for me.

Hi all,
We have a fairly regular saying at home which is "Amy's on strike".
This simply means that she fails to speak, often after booting up,
when we first go to use her. Of course, we find ways round, sometimes
needing to reboot the box again; but I wonder if anyone else is
finding this problem and if you have a better solution than a bit of
hit and miss and, finally, if you've concluded what's going on and
why!
