similar to: asterisk and TTS ( text to speech)

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

Hello I have two questions ! 1. What is the best speech recognition engine for asterisk? I have searched and asked on forums and found that lumen vox is best for asterisk bala bla bla 2.

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

Not being very happy with festival I would like ro get a better TTS engine. I looked at the listings at: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+sound+files+international but I would like to get user input on suggested packages for Linux.

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

aside from festival are there are other TTS engines out there that are free? I have written a simple script to snarf files from a foreign site with a really good TTS engine, but there is a lot of latency so I was looking to use something on my system, however festival is hard for me to understand (far too mechanical). Basically the script I have uses sitepal.com's TTS engine (after a

Hi Reed, I've been using Speex to transmit TTS for years. It works very well with no tweaking. I use Microsoft TTS ("Microsoft Mike") with Speex at 16kHz wideband and VBR quality 6. Sometimes I forget that the sound is even coming from another computer and being compressed+decompressed. If anything, TTS seems easier for Speex to deal with than real voice. But I don't

Hello Group, I have been going through all the chit-chat about TTS and the various engines available to integrate with Asterisk incl. flite/festival, espeak, Nuance etc but I am wondering if anyone's tried any or all of these to compile on a Sparc based Solaris platform? If not, then what is the best way for me to accomplish a production environment TTS service when most of my servers or the

Hello! Is there a way to communicate from Asterisk to a TTS server? I've seen festival.conf, but it seems that it works only with Festival server. Thank you.

Hi all, I need to simply use Asterisk to receive incoming calls in an IVR manner. It should authenticate users and read data from MySQL table that match their ID through Text-to-speech. I already have Asterisk 2.6 (Asterisk@home). I understand that I need to use Festival and AGI but do not know what to do exactly. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

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...

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.

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 (

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 used Microsoft text to speech with speex. It sounded reasonably well. I didn't experiment with various quality settings (8KHz, default quality). I was capturing audio from a sound card, not the direct wave data from the TTS engine. .a -----Original Message----- From: speex-dev-bounces@xiph.org [mailto:speex-dev-bounces@xiph.org] On Behalf Of Reed Hedges Sent: Friday, May 26, 2006 7:23 AM
