similar to: Festival 1.4.3

Hello-- In the interests of playing around and wasting time, I've installed the latest version of the Festival stuff, 1.95beta. And, in the interests of future Asterisk-Festival connectivity, I applied the 1.4.3 patch to put in the asterisk related routines. I did it by hand, but, it looks like the patch will apply with no comment. Asterisk works with the new server... BUT the speed of

Hey All, Thought I'd take a bash at trying to get Festival to work here on my lab system with the aim of using it to create our IVR menu prompts. I've spent most of the afternoon searching through the Wiki, the Festival website and Google and I've got a couple of questions. First one is that the 'Asterisk+festival+installation' page on the Wiki mentions the RedHat 9 RPMs

Hello, I'm in the process of trying to get Festival to work with Asterisk. I followed the install process at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+festival+installation.

How ever, when ever I try to call the test extension, I get a busy

Hi I have installed Festival on the same box as asterisk and followed the instructions to integrate it with asterisk.

I just wanted to try out Festival, but I can't get it patched. I'm thinking that there is something missing from the steps listed at http://www.marko.net/asterisk/archives/0209/0389.html. >>tar xvzf festival-1.4.2-release.tar.gz >>patch -p0 </usr/src/asterisk-ng/festival-1.4.2-diff >> (or wherever the patch is located) When I run the patch command, I get the

Hi, Has anybody seen a non commercial, or freeware, or GPL, or even CHEAP... POP/IMAP to Text-to-speech? I have a working version for POP3 using festival. It DOES work... it even cleans the email contents to get the actual content. It works great with Outlook emails and similar, and skips non multipart/alternative (that would be mainly SPAM, where the email is just

Interestingly enough I had this same problem today.... 1. I created the directory and permissions for the directory " /var/lib/asterisk/festivalcache/ " (per the comment in the festival.conf file) 2. I had to comment out some things in the festival.conf file: the "host" line, the "port" line, and the "festivalcommand" line. I have also noticed the

Hi I'm running a bright shiny new asterisk installation, and have discovered a problem with the festival application - when it plays back the generated sound, it skips the start. If, on the other hand, it has caching turned on, then when it plays the cached sound, it doesn't skip the first word or two. I assume that this has something to do with the time taken to generate the speech -

I'm about to begin working on an ivr project to do database backed scheduling. I would like to use text to speech in some places. What are the differences in using festival vs. Cepstral? How are they similar, how are they different? Is one really better than the other? How and Why? Thanks, Eric -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I recently got Festival performing Text to Speech on my Asterisk system. It is working great when I call from extension to extension in the house. But when I dial in on my phone number (which comes in on a sip registration to a Sonus server), I can not hear any sound. The asterisk box thinks it is playing the festival sound but I hear nothing. Any ideas?

Hello, I have Asterisk running on a RH9 box; Everything seems to be working as it should, except for Festival. Every time that Festival is called from Asterisk, Asterisk silently shuts down. Festival doesn't give any error indication and Asterisk just plain dies without a peep. Festival was installed per the Wiki, using source and patched with festival-1.4.3-diff; it works fine at the
