I'm experimenting with a voice interface for squeezelite. It speaks the current title, album, artist, remaining time and next song info. I use a TTS system, the chain is as follows: <text> | espeak | mbrola | aplay
I'm using my favorite german-born english speaker voice (mbrola-de4) which is quite able to speak english (and german.) It's very poor at speaking french, almost unintelligible. Of course, the digital french speaker can't speak any language but french ;) I could switch speakers or spoken languages if I could determine the language that should be used when speaking title, album, artist name. I don't think there is such a thing as a COUNTRY or LANGUAGE ID3 tag (not in my files anyway), so I am asking here if you'd know of a service I could query for this information. I suppose dictionary lookup would work, but if there is an internet service to do the job for me I wouldn't mindÂ… ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98024
