aside from festival are there are other TTS engines out there that are free? I have written a simple script to snarf files from a foreign site with a really good TTS engine, but there is a lot of latency so I was looking to use something on my system, however festival is hard for me to understand (far too mechanical).
Basically the script I have uses sitepal.com's TTS engine (after a fashion) by grabbing the SWF of a phrase, which includes (pretty much only) an MP3 which I SWFrip, convert and then play. I have implemented a caching system in there so its tolerable for static content, but live content is much too slow. I cant really complain since this is not an 'approved use' of sitepals system, and wanted something that was ... better on a variety of fronts. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378
