We are having some major problems with app_swift since we went live. It is regularly segfaulting. I don't know if this is my fault or not, but here's the story: Installed the cepstral voices (at the time, 4.0) on our test system (2.6.9-42.0.10.ELsmp) and later added some extra voices (now 4.2). All worked fine - we stress tested (20+ simultaneous calls). Move to live (

Can someone point me to a page about writing a text file to call an external number and play a TTS with cepstral? I know it includes the creation of a .call file but beyond that im a bit lost.

How do you get Cepstral working, they only offer windows versions. do I have to complie it to linux? http://www.cepstral.com

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:

what's the easiest way of using cepstral voices with asterisk ? On their website, in the ssml page (http://www.cepstral.com/cgi-bin/support?page=ssml), they say "Asterisk PBX SSML can be used with Cepstral voices in Asterisk by simply embedding the markup into the input text." what input text ? To what application ? Thanks ! Julian

Greetings, I've recently upgraded from Asterisk 1.2 to 1.4. I've been searching for a solution, but am also trying the easy way at the same time. I've now got David of Cepstral now speaking using app_swift from http://www.mezzo.net/asterisk/app_swift.html . The problem is, he sounds way worse than he did when it was asterisk version 1.2. I'm seriously considering either

Was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for getting the linux version of cepstral voices working with Asterisk. The cepstral site states that the voices work with asterisk, but I haven't been able to find anything with google or in the handbook on this. Thanks in advance, Bruce

Hi all, I hope that I'm not breaking protocol too much by posting a message in this group about a problem that I'm having with an Asterisk Business Edition installation, but the reason that I'm posting here is because the problem that I'm having isn't really with the Business Edition, it is with the Cepstral text to speech product that I'm using with it, and also because

Hi, I'm using Cepstral as a TTS Engine for Asterisk with Swift application. It works fine when I have just 1 voice installed. Now I have 2 voices in the same language installed but I can't seem to find the way to select which voice to use in Swift's application in Asterisk. Does anyone know?? Thank you, Pim

Hi, For an organization welcoming turists (in France), I would be curious to learn about successful use (with Asterisk) of Text-To-Speech in spanish (and english). I took a look at Cepstral's web site and saw there 2 "Americas Spanish" voices (along a bunch of english voices). 1. In this context, according to your experience, is it acceptable to use an "Americas Spanish"

I just got cepstal working fine in the dial plan using code like: exten => 511,5,AGI(cepstral.pl|Welcome to my house finder. At the beep enter your zip code.) The php script it calls is based on the nerdvittles weather one so it calls a webpage which prints to the screen, the nerdvittles code uses system to generate the .wav file then has the dial plan call it via: //php script $retcode2 =

Hello, I recently purchased the Cepstral 6 text-to-speech engine (swift), and am now wondering if I should have bought something else. I would like to use Cepstral text to speech like some people use the Festival() or Flite() applications. For example, when I do a "core show application flite" at the CLI, flite is available to me: localhost*CLI> core show application flite

All, Has anyone seen this before? This appears to be a Swift or app_swift bug. I'm having a difficult time finding any information or support on this.

Hi, How can I integrate Asterisk to Nuance TTS engine instead of Cepstral? Has anybody done this? How is the architecture and can Java AGI be used to communicate between them? regards, Vela Sivasankaran -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

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

Hi All, We just bought a sip based PA setup here with the intention of hooking it into our existing asterisk (1.4) setup. It works as expected when I dial it's extension, but I want to have system generated speech played based on some action (using cepstral, which is already installed and working). My first thought was to DIAL to the extension, and then have cepstral play the audio. The

Hey everyone, I was frustrated with the existing app_cepstral/app_swift TTS modules I've found on the net, so I hacked up my own. It's been working really well for me so I thought I'd share. In developing this, I wanted to avoid: * the startup delay incurred writing TTS output to a temp file then playing it back * gluing cepstral/swift to the asterisk module in a way that fubard
