Hi Rupert, I have built Speech To Text Engine module, with these functionalities :
1 ) Provided the support for multiple language Model files, default language is "*en".* Client can parse the language for model files and it will be loaded. 2 ) Transcripts extracted from sound file as plain text Blob are fed back to ContentItem. 3 ) Genearted the junit test cases for both SphinxModelProvider and SpeechToTexEngine Service. All test Cases are passed. Things yet to be done: 1 ) Providing support for loading several named models for the same language. *Problem* : Do not know client will parse the name of custom Model files, in that case how multiple custom model file names will be parsed. Please give me a hint on how to implement this service. 2 ) Providing support for loading models from particular bundle. *Problem:* If a client wants to parse bundle name of model files, how will he parse it and how can I access name of the bundle name. Is there any service that implements it, help me on it. 3 ) In previous discussions it was said that SpeechToText Engine Service would not just provide the extracted text, but also annotation about the time when this text was spoken in the parsed audio/video file. A possible use case would be a client that wants to *highlight the text* currently spoken in a Audio/Video file. *Problem* : I am not clear about the Time Stamp Annotation service and how client will highlight the text.
