text-to-speech

I'm trying to give a little more clarity to TTS sentences by indicating emphasis, etc. I'm using the Chrome TTS API , which indicates that it accepts SSML-formatted documents in addition to raw text. After many attempts, and a reading a few comments on the web, it doesn't look like this is actually supported, or possibly that this is up to individual voices for implementation. Does anyone know: Has SSML been abandoned under Chrome? If not, is there any indication whether they expect to support it via native voice, or they're hoping that someone else will implement? Do any Chrome voices

I am trying to run a voice program in Python 3.5.2 and with pyttsx library. But I've faced up with lots of problems. First one is about engine. When I run the command import pyttsx , compiler gave me the error like below: ImportError: No module named 'engine' Then I've found this answer . But it didn't work either. Eventually, I now have another - similar - error like below: D:\Users\orcuny\Desktop\AVA>python ava.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Users\orcuny\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pyttsx\__init__.py", line 37, in init eng = _activeEngines[driverName]

I have an asp.net MVC application that has a controller action that takes a string as input and sends a response wav file of the synthesized speech. Here is a simplified example: public async Task<ActionResult> Speak(string text) { Task<FileContentResult> task = Task.Run(() => { using (var synth = new System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer()) using (var stream = new MemoryStream()) { synth.SetOutputToWaveStream(stream); synth.Speak(text); var bytes = stream.GetBuffer(); return File(bytes, "audio/x-wav"); } }); return await task; } The application (and this action method in particular) is

I am trying to develop a text-to-speech editor in .NET 3.5 using C#. I encountered the following exception: System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission . How to handle it? The system is saying that there has been an attempt to do something that is not allowed according to the current policy. More information is needed to give good advice here: 1) What is the full text of the exception message? There are a dozen or so situations that can cause a SecurityPermission so this is important. Specifically, there is a flag field that indicates the exact nature of the security violation. 2) What is

I've made a Simple Program That Recognizes Speech Using SAPI 5.4 , i wanted to ask if i can add some more languages to the TTS and The ASR , Thanks Here is the code i made you anybody needs to take a look at it using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; using SpeechLib; using System.Globalization; using System.Speech.Recognition; namespace WindowsFormsApplication1 { public partial class Form1 : Form { // Speech Recognition Object SpSharedRecoContext

i am using Festival c++ Api but in the manual provided at http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/manual/festival_28.html#SEC132 saying to link festival/src/lib/libFestival.a etc. so please tell me hw to link them with my c++ programme The simplest way to link a static library from g++ is simply to name the library on the command line, using the complete path: g++ mycode.cpp -o myprog /myinstall/festival/src/lib/libFestival.a where /myinstall is wherever you installed the libraries. You can also specify the path and the library with the -L and -l flags: g++ mycode.cpp -o myprog -L/myinstall

Decrease the stream volume and Increase TTS volume at the same time I had this Android application that talk with TTS every time and uses streaming music (spotify). So, I need to decrease the volume and increase the TTS I use this code but this decrease the tts as well. AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE); audioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,[int value],[if desired a flag]); Any way to decrease only spotify like stream music . in Java/android. What you want to do is know as 'audio ducking' Here's some sample code: /** * Our {
