similar to: POP3 and TTS (Festival?)

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:

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

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. Best performance vs. cost ???? Doug **************************** * Doug Crompton * * Richboro, PA 18954 * * 215-431-6307 * *

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 I have installed Festival on the same box as asterisk and followed the instructions to integrate it with asterisk. Festival seems to work fine on its own performing text to speech from the command line or via a file. Asterisk answers the call but there is no speech. I can see no errors in the Festival log file The asterisk console shows --Executing Answer("SIP/81801-c091",

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.

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, 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 have done research and reading around text to speech, and was wanting to get an updated query of where everyone is with this. I have installed festival 1.4 on CentOS 3.5 ( system was installed using Asterisk at Home ISO ). I also changed the directory php application to use the festival.pl to read the names of those who have not installed a greeting. It works well enough, though the only voices

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?
