Infotainment System
There are no restrictions if the number of
files and albums is fewer than 12,000. When
the number of files connected to the system
is between 12,000 and 24,000, the content
cannot be accessed directly with one
command like
“
Play <song name>.
”
The restriction is that the command
“
Play
Song
”
must be spoken first; the system will
then ask for the song name. The reply
command would be to say the name of the
song to play.
Similar limits exist for album content.
If there are more than 12,000 albums, but
fewer than 24,000, the content cannot be
accessed directly with one command like,
“
Play <album name>.
”
The command
“
Play
Album
”
must first be spoken; the system
will then ask for the album name. The reply
would be to say the name of the album
to play.
Once the number of files has exceeded
approximately 24,000, there is no support
for accessing the songs directly through
voice commands. There will still be access to
the media content by using commands for
playlists, artists, and genres.
The access commands for playlists, artists,
and genres are prohibited after the number
of this type of media exceeds 12,000.
The system will provide feedback the first
time voice recognition is initiated if it has
become apparent that any of these limits
are reached during a device initializing
process.
Voice recognition performance will degrade
to some extent based on many factors when
adding large amounts of data to recognize.
If this is the case, perhaps accessing songs
through playlists or artist name would work
better.
