Time Announcement Folder
This is the folder where the time announcements are stored.

Filenames must follow these rules:
Hours00 Hours01 Hours02 ... until Hours23 .... Minutes01 Minutes02 Minutes03 ... until Minutes59

The filenames are language dependent so, for exemple, if you're using MB STUDIO in french, it will be Heures00, etc etc

MB STUDIO will play hours and minutes gapless, however it's still possible to play a single file announcing both hours and minutes: Hours0001 Hours0002 Hours0003 ... until Hours2359

Usually the top hour announcement require a different voacl style, so you can record a special file for top hour only: Hour0000 (saying "It's midnight!")  Hour0100 ("It's 1'o clock!")  hour0200 ("it's 2'o clock!") ...

Files could be in any supported format: mp3, wav, ogg, wma, flag, m4a, etc
