text-to-speech

Here's my log, but it doesn't seem to contain anything about the TTS service. 10-04 22:45:30.663: WARN/InputManagerService(209): Window already focused, ignoring focus gain of: com.android.internal.view.IInputMethodClient$Stub$Proxy@4423df40 10-04 22:45:37.363: INFO/PollingManager(449): calculateShortestInterval(): shortest

Please give me any reference or hint. You need a text-to-speech (TTS) engine that supports Hindi. Each TTS engine has specific languages that it supports. Here is a TTS engine that supports Hindi , but this runs on Windows.

I am working on a TextToSpeech app. I write one paragraph in a UITextField , then I press the Speak button. Sound plays according to the text written in the UITextField . However, when the app is in background mode, the audio stops playing. How can I continue to play the sound in background mode? Similar to how an audio player can play a song in the background.

I'm developing an app which would read out the text in the document and I want to add a pause and resume functionality but I can't find any pause() method in TTS. Is there any way that I can pause..? There is a way to pause. Just call TextToSpeech.playSilence() see the code below from here .
