GoldenDict Forum

After installing the Oxford dictionary, the default voice is British English, how can set it as American English?
Thanks!

Goldendict just plays the first sound in the card. And in this particular dictionary it is so happens that BrE is the first sound.

You could either remove BrE sounds, or try to reformat the DSL so that AmE sounds are first in the cards.

I need BrE sounds, so how can I reformat the DSL?

That's the main question. You could open a DSL file in any file editor that supports big files and supports regular expressions (e.g., EmEditor is the best for such purposes). And try to tweak things. Sounds in DSL file are the ones between [s] tags.

thanks a lot
I opened DSL file with gedit in ubuntu, and replaced all sound files that contains "_us_" with "_gb_" and vice versa! it works good!
but it would be great if i could replace for example:
"[p]BrE[/p] [c darkgray] [/c][c darkcyan]\[faɪv\][/c] [s]z_five__us_1.wav[/s] [p]NAmE[/p] [c darkgray] [/c][c darkcyan]\[faɪv\][/c] [s]z_five__gb_1.wav[/s]" with:
"[p]NAmE[/p] [c darkgray] [/c][c darkcyan]\[faɪv\][/c] [s]z_five__gb_1.wav[/s] [p]BrE[/p] [c darkgray] [/c][c darkcyan]\[faɪv\][/c] [s]z_five__us_1.wav[/s]" using text editor like vi or ...?
