similar to: Festival and Asterisk - different voices?

Asterisk v1.0 is running on RH 9. I installed festival RPM (festival-1.4.2-16.i386.rpm) and edited the festival.scm file to add: (define (tts_textasterisk string mode) "(tts_textasterisk STRING MODE) Apply tts to STRING. This function is specifically designed for use in server mode so a single function call may synthesize the string. This function name may be added to the server safe

FYI, I found a workaround with this. Festival w/ A@H comes with 4 voices. Here's a snippet from the siteinit.scm file: ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_bdl_arctic_hts) (set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_slt_arctic_hts) ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_jmk_arctic_hts) ;(set! voice_default 'voice_cmu_us_awb_arctic_hts) The default is to have the first line uncommented and

Hello, I am having a Mac 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard). I have compiled and built Asterisk 1.6.2.9 and Festival 2.0.95:beta on my machine. Asterisk is working fine with SIP channels without Festival. I have written following context in extension.conf: [connect-to-me] exten => s,1,Answer Exten => s,n,SayDigits(?1?) exten => s,n,Festival(hello john) exten => s,n,Hangup I use call files to

Hi, I'm banging my head with Perl AGI script to produce wav file to be streamed with Festival's text2wave utility. I have two lines of code: ------------------------------------ system('echo "' . $text . '" | text2wave -scale 1.5 -F 8000 -o ' . $filename . ' - '); system('echo "' . $text . '" | text2wave -eval

Earlier this afternoon I had this working exten => 2890,1,Answer exten => 2890,2,GoTo(12) exten => 2890,12,Wait(1) exten => 2890,13,Festival('I can say numbers like') exten => 2890,14,SayNumber(1230001,f) exten => 2890,15,Wait(1) exten => 2890,16,HangUp I was so very proud of myself... All of a sudden after a reboot.... I get the following from the same call plan

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. To get the Festival to compile I had to add the patch described in the comments. Once added, Festival and the Speech tools compiled without error. How ever, when ever I try to call the test extension, I get a busy

Hello. I couldn't see anything in festival.conf. The voice is currently male, and robotic. How do I change this ? Regards...Martin

I'm having trouble getting festival to work with asterisk. We are running debian (sarge) and got asterisk from CVS. Here's what I'm using as far as festival goes. Debian (Sarge) gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-3) Connected to Asterisk CVS-HEAD-07/28/04-21:08:19 festival-1.4.3-release.tar.gz speech-tools_1.2.3.orig.tar.gz I got patches for both of these. Speech tools

Hey folks, So I'm trying to get Festival() working on 1.2.17. I'm trying to use app_festival: Here's the show dialplan output from that extension: '3378' => 1. Answer() [pbx_config] 2. Festival(Hello Asterisk caller. How is your day?) [pbx_config] 3. Playback(vm-goodbye) [pbx_config] 4. Hangup()

I followed the directions I found in the list to a tee http://www.marko.net/asterisk/archives/0209/0389.html The server starts fine, but when I call the festival extension it gives me an OID error variable tts_textasterisk I have RH7.3 festival 1.4.2 speech_tools 1.2.2 patched it with the festival-1.4.2.diff located in the /usr/src/asterisk/ folder . When I patched it, the patch was looking

Hi, I?m trying to get app_festival to work. I got the source from the Debian woody package of festival-1.4.2 and applied the patch that came with * sources it applied fine; then I made the debian package and installed it. I have this on extensions.conf: exten => 6700,1,Festival(Hi there how are you doing ?) When I dial 6700 I hear nothing and then * hangups: -- Executing

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

I am trying to use festival (latest version 1.4.3) I have downloaded all the files needed and patched it with the provided diff. festival does work and does tts fine. but when I call Festival either from an extention or an AGI script, I get this in my asterisk messages log, but no sound on the channels (H323 or SIP) - they (the clients) just say "trying" and then hangup...

Hi all, I'm writing a script to do some basic text analysis in R. Let's assume I have a data frame named data which contains a column named 'utt' which contains strings. Is there a straightforward way to achieve something like this: data$ContainsThe <- ifelse(startsWith(data$Utt,"the"),"y","n") or data$ContainsThe <-

I'm using glmmPQL, and I still have a few problems with it. In addition to the issue reported earlier, I'm getting the following error and I was wondering if there's something I can do about it. Error in logLik.reStruct(object, conLin) : Na/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 3) ... Warnings: 1: Singular precistion matrix in level -1, block 4 (...) 4: "" The

Hi, I'm having trouble with glmmPQL from the MASS package. I'm trying to fit a model with a binary response variable, two fixed and two random variables (nested), with a sample of about 200,000 data points. Unfortunately, I'm getting an error message that is difficult to understand without knowing the internals of the glmmPQL function. > model <- glmmPQL(primed ~

Hey All, I now have Festival compiled, installed and running using the instructions on the Wiki page. When I try to change the voice that is being used however, I am running into a problem. I get the following in the festival server log: Cannot open file /tmp/est_10877_00000/utt.wav as tokenstream Wave load: can't open file "/tmp/est_10877_00000/utt.wav" Cannot load wavefile:

I've tried getting Festival working with Asterisk. Here is what debugging from asterisk says: -- Executing Festival("SIP/VoIP-e576", "please record your message") in new stack == Parsing '/usr/local/etc/asterisk/festival.conf': Found Aug 2 07:14:49 WARNING[49829]: app_festival.c:444 festival_exec: Festival returned ER == Spawn extension (mvp-line2, 2101,

After upgrading to R 2.6.0, I'm having trouble running lmer: model <- lmer(primed ~ log(dist.time)*role + 1|target.utt, data=data.utts) Error in UseMethod("as.logical") : no applicable method for "as.logical" So I thought I'd upgrade lme4 to the latest version, but unfortunately the compilation fails - perhaps there's a missing #include: R CMD INSTALL

R-users & helpers: I am using Amelia, mitools and cmprsk to fit cumulative incidence curves to multiply imputed datasets. The error message that I get "Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : invalid 'envir' argument" occurs when I try to fit models to the 50 imputed datasets using the "with.imputationList" function of mitools. The problem seems to occur
