long long ago I had done a macro that would execute a script that would pull off a webpage (and cache it so it only pulls the first time per unique phrase) TTS output from iirc ibm. This was not that difficult, and there are some that have TOSs that prohivbit that, although I didnt see one at that time for the one I did. I did another that I didnt release that used oddcast.com for their TTS stuff, I was concerned with their license terms. I dont know where the TTS script is, I may still have a copy somewhere and can look for it if its really desired, this isnt something I would recommend for largely dynamic text, but does work well for generating IVR prompts that may occasionally change. The point of this is that its not that difficult to do, although the cepstral one has a module that provides an application command, that directly calls libswift, so its slightly better, although cepstral does have platform limitations (windows, osx and linux afaik). -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel Belfast +44 28 9099 6461 US +1 516 687 5200 http://www.trxtel.com the phone company that pays you! _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
