CN version has less then half the space for sound files than EN version, so we have to decrease sound quality to fit to that space.
I have created a new variant like member Nexter suggested in PM. It has 8bit 16kHz sounds instead of 16bit 8Khz, and it sounds better, and file sizes are almost the same. Also increased volume to a level that no clipping will occur. Link is the same, there is a new file SD_CarDV_1.0.5_16k_en4cn.zip with updated sound files.
Please refer if it is better, because I will keep this new format for future versions in that case.

These are factory sounds from original EN firmware. But those files were nearly double the size which fits to CN firmware. Had to decrease quality to reduce file sizes. If you want factory sounds then this is your firmware. Otherwise try lisabon_Q3 version, that is with different tts voice. Or you can make own version with own sounds, instructions linked in post #81.Thanks. The voice volume is certainly louder now. However still need some tweaks to increase clarity. Maybe higher pitch voice.
Finally I can take photo with CN camera! Found lisabon_Q3's post at 4pda about sound commands. And if I say command like he wrote: "Во й(е|я) п(х)айячао" it takes photo! Previously I said like "п(х)айчао" but that extra "я" really helped!And for those who are interested, here are the chinese commands:-
1. wo yao pai zhao(我要拍照)I want to take photo
Thanks a lot for your help and guidance. My new english 70mai unit arrived today and the voice is less loud when compares to chinese voice. The english voice has lower tone whereas the chinese voice has higher tone and more clarity. Maybe it is the way chinese words are pronounced and stressed that sound so clear to my ears. Anyways, english or chinese voice doesn't really pose any big problem operating and using the dashcam.These are factory sounds from original EN firmware.

One addition, you can also make 16000 Hz, 8 bit unsigned PCM, 1 channel wav which is also 128Kbps, more understandable, and camera plays that format as well.
Space for ALL the wavs is little more than 1.5MB. In CN firmware 1.0.5 partition 1 is little bigger, it ends at 0x748fff instead of 0x72fff, that is 102400 bytes more, nearly 1.7MB, so it has few seconds more space for speech than previous versions.
Thanks for this. I successfully updated my CN version to this. Though, I found an oddity. After the event recording, it says "microphone is off" instead of "event recording finished/done".NEW FIRMWARE for Chinese Version (CN)

I'm fine with the non-english voice control. I only need to tap a bit roughly the dashcam to start the event recording.
Thank you, indeed, the “end of emergency recording” voice file was a copy of the “microphone off” voice file. The same was in version 1.0.5 Now everything should be right. Updated the file in this post.

Does your sound recording turn off while the DVR is running? Try to disable voice control in the settings through the application.i am not sure if this is correct topic for my issue. i have global version of 70mai and sound recording stops after a while by itself. I searched forum wide and found some other users mentioned same problem but no one typed solution. Does anybody has solution for this? fw 1.0.5
Best Regards,
No, this is the topic of the 70mai smart recorder:Hi, i'm not able to update my dashcam. I've the 70MAI PRO. Are we talking about the same cam?
