similar to: Non-native codecs - MELPe?

You're asking the wrong question. The question is not "why does it would bad with Speex?", but "why does it sound good with LPC10 and MELP?". And the answer is that both are vocoders. Try dropping frames/subframes with anything else (Vorbis, MP3, G.729, u-law, ...) and it'll sound terrible as well. The only reason it sounds good with vocoders is because the

Hi. I'm Bill Cox, and I volunteer a bit for the Vinux project, which is Linux for people with vision impairments. Most blind users use a closed-source speech synthesis tool called voxin, as it's very easy to understand at high speed. I would like to make TTS synthesizers based on large recorded vocabularies of actual speech, but to make it useful for the blind, I need to be able to

Here's one clue about whatever is causing the low quality speech. Speech sounds terrible at 1.01X faster, and it sounds excellent at normal speed (1.0X). So, the main problem is something that breaks with any change in frame size in the decoder. Any idea what that might be?

We have been having a problem with sshd on our shell server. This has been happening since March 4, 2003 or before IIRC. Initially I thought the next OS upgrade, to 4.8 would fix this. I am accustomed to haveing little things go away in a month or two. I think we jumped to 4.7-STABLE on Feb 28, 2003. Some exploit fix wasn't being MFSd to RELENG_4_7 fast enough for my nerves (cvsd?). It

Hi, Steve. I tried your the time_scale_tests program, and it works well! Especially for low speed changes, it's the best I've heard so far. For high speed increases, there is what sounds like static added to the sound output. I've attached two sound samples of high speed speech, which is a 4X speed up of a popular TTS voice in the blind community (voxin/Eloquence). I've sped

Package: logcheck-database Version: 1.2.34 Severity: minor I have parallel port attached printer and kernel reports whenever printer is out of paper: Mar 6 12:38:50 host kernel: lp0 out of paper However, this is not a situation that should be reported by default (IMHO) by logcheck sending report email. Thus I propose adding following line to ignore.d.workstation/logcheck (possibly to .server

Well, For this particular use case why not just transform the parameters at the R level and then call the existing function?

Hi all, I'd like to know how well Speex handles multiple input streams. More specifically, if i have 4 streams that are playing at "the same time", how well does the CODEC handle switching from one stream to the next to process the audio. The reason i ask is this....My project up until now uses the MELP CODEC which didn't specifically have the ability to handle multiple

Hi, Jean-Marc, and thanks for the quick reply. Let me just say I'm a huge fan of speex, and the work you've done. I actually barely understand what I'm reading so far in the source code and documentation, just enough to understand just how cool the algorithms are. LPC10 and MELP allow me to speed up speech with a simple hack on the decoder frame size. Playing fewer samples per

Hi folks, I am totally new to audio streaming codecs, and just looking around. Trying to figure out what else I can put on top of my very long list of projects. So a few days ago I figured out that fldigi a digimode application for Amateur Radio supports a dual 1000 Baud PSK mode. I thought "that's fast" and started looking around which sort of Data I could put into that. A

Package: logcheck-database Severity: wishlist Hi, the following two lines should be added either to ignore.d.server/dhcp or ignore.d.server/udhcp to ignore messages from udhcpd (other lines may be necessary) # udhcpd support ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ udhcpd\[[0-9]+\]: sending OFFER of [.0-9]+ ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ udhcpd\[[0-9]+\]: sending ACK to [.0-9]+ filippo

This is a list of issues for discussion for CentOS-4. Most of it is based on my experience from building/maintaining CentOS-2 and observing CentOS-3. I have not seen the CentOS-4 beta yet so I don't know if any of this is already done. If these have been discussed on IRC then perhaps someone could produce a shot summary of the outcomes....? * Just call it CentOS-4 not 4.1 etc. Too

I was able to easily hack in an option to play back at different speeds. For example, using "speexdec --speed 2.0 file.enc file.wav" plays back encoded file.enc at 2X speed. What I did was divide st->frameSize and st->subFrameSize by the speedup, and added a SPEEX_SET_SPEED decoder control for the nb_celp decoder. This produced speech that was 2X faster than the original.

Hi Bill, Any attempt to alter speed by simple insert or dropping produces poor results. Even if you can get it to sound smooth, the resulting pitch shift is horrible. You really need to use a transform that alters speed smoothly, while maintaining the original pitch of the voice. If you look in my spandsp library you will find a module which does exactly this, using an algorithm called

It should probably not be necessary in my case to compile a custom version of the Cortado applet-the official binary works fine, and may be advantageous over a locally-compiled version (regarding compatibility with 1.1-era JVMs), as was mentioned in a previous message. My interest was to include the corresponding source code when distributing the official binary (i.e. as would be required for

Hi *, This is my first message to this list, so I hope I am not breaking any rule with my post. My question is the following: can I establish a voice connection over an ISDN interface by using a bluetooth dongle to connect to the ISDN access point?
