We recently used Ivona for a fairly complex IVR project (multi-lingual, 
including pronunciation of foreign names).


http://www.ivona.com

Not free, but we found the sound quality considerably better than we 
were able to get from either Festival or Cepstral.


Worth bearing in mind that we are based in the UK, so our primary 
concern was for good quality British English voices. I cannot comment on 
other variants such as Australian or American.


Kind regards,

Chris

Start small and work your way up.

From a shell command line, try

echo test | mail -s test thomas.per...@gmail.com

If that doesn't work and you don't get any useful clues from the command 
output, start digging where your syslogd logs messages.

Next, from a shell command line, try

echo test | mail -s test 551...@txt.att.net

Note that this recipient is specific to this carrier.

If that works, it should work in Asterisk assuming you don't have any path 
or permissions issues.

 dialplan but no joy!  i know you know that i am not a star with this

Hi, 

You should check, but I think some carriers don't have email to sms as part of 
their service, in which case I use an sms provider to send the messages. The 
provider will charge you a fee per message. It's probably easier to choose a 
provider that offers an email2sms service.

I operate an SMS website. I'll send you the link directly, however apart from 
setting up voicemail sms notification, i've never setup sms directly from a 
dialplan. But if you can figure out how to send a normal email from the 
dialplan, its the same process for email2sms.

First, I would recommend trying to set up the dialplan to send a normal email 
to a standard email address to check your dialplan is working.
Then you can change the To address to the sms provider's address.

Regards
Dan

That may not work for all sip phones.  Some (like xlite/eyebeam) crash when
receiving a text, others drop the subsequent call (Aastra 5x).  These
observations are based on a project we did in late 2008; so be sure to do a
proof of concept before you get too deep into the project.

It does nothing on hardware channels.
SendText is just works on SIP channels.
Purpose of SendText is showing text messages on user phone screen.

show application SendText

  -= Info about application 'SendText' =-

[Synopsis]
Send a Text Message

[Description]
  SendText(text[|options]): Sends text to current channel (callee).
Result of transmission will be stored in the SENDTEXTSTATUS
channel variable:
  SUCCESS  Transmission succeeded
  FAILURE  Transmission failed
  UNSUPPORTED  Text transmission not supported by channel

At this moment, text is supposed to be 7 bit ASCII in most channels.
The option string many contain the following character:
'j' -- jump to n+101 priority if the channel doesn't support
   text transport

It appears that Sendtext() simply invokes the callback stub 
ast_channel_tech.send_text, and this is implemented by various channel 
drivers in a proprietary manner.

In the case of chan_sip.c:sip_sendtext(), the implementation indeed 
uses SIP MESSAGE:

static int transmit_message_with_text(struct sip_pvt *p, const char *text)
{
 struct sip_request req;

 reqprep(req, p, SIP_MESSAGE, 0, 1);
 add_text(req, text);
 return send_request(p, req, XMIT_RELIABLE, p-ocseq);
}

In the DAHDI implementation, it appears that some kind of acoustic 
in-band tones are generated using main/tdd.c:tdd_generate().  I am not 
certain what exactly the applicable standard is or how it works.

IAX2 appears to have a text frame type:

static int iax2_sendtext(struct ast_channel *c, const char *text)
{

 return send_command_locked(PTR_TO_CALLNO(c-tech_pvt), 
AST_FRAME_TEXT,
 0, 0, (unsigned char *)text, strlen(text) + 1, -1);
}

Hakan,

I did not ask about the purpose of Sendtext() - I know the purpose, 
and on the level on which you have explained it, it is self-evident.

I asked about how it was implemented underneath.  Even in the context 
of SIP channels solely, there are numerous ways to send what one might 
term a message.

 Install kannel and configure it to work with your SMS modem (many cell

 the asterisk box, just a box you can hit with HTTP or HTTPs.

 Make sure you have lynx installed

 In your Asterisk dialplan use system(lynx
 http://ipofyoursmsserverusernamepasswordnumbermessage) that is not the
 exact syntax but it is all documented but everything in the SMS in encoded
 in the URL.

 With five T-mobile phones, I can send five a second, it seems linear, it
 may be possible to increase throughput, I just got it working and left it at
 that.

 Messages queue until there is an available modem, sent in order.

 PLUS it is MUCH cheaper (at least in the US) than these aggregators.  With
 a T-Mobile family plan, 1,000 voice minutes, and unlimited SMS runs me about
 $135/mo.  I guess it depends on volume of SMS you are sending.

 If yes, any examples of configurations would be really apreciated.

AIUI, the Portechs can recieve TXTs and you can see them via their Web 
interface.. I don't think you can send with them.

However, I can get asterisk to send TXT messages via a GSM gateway I have 
on the serial port of the server using the Linux command-line SMS 
programs. That's easy enough.

   System(putsms 44mobilenumber 'message goes here')

However, it takes my Siemens TC35 GSM terminal about 4.5 seconds to send 
each message which might stall a dial-plan somewhat... But there are 
various message handling systems avalable that will queue outgoing 
messages, etc. so the send command can return instantly to the dialplan 
with sending going on in the background.

IIRC, asterisk currently supports sending text messages only when voice

IIRC, asterisk currently supports sending text messages only when voice 
call is already established, so not very usefull yet...

Are you sending SMS to known users or to any mobile phone user?

If you are sending to a fixed user base, track down the email to SMS  
gateways for their carriers.  Then sending an SMS is no different than  
sending an e-mail.

I use the 'generic' file in Postfix to map an email address that is not in
use to someone's text messaging address. It'd be [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ie: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then, any email that gets sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], will get automatically sent to that person's phone.

2008-10-13 Thread C. Savinovich

I am trying to send text messaging to one caller, maybe about 40  of those
per day, whose phone service have expired.  All these callers are calling
from their cell phones, and I have their caller ids.  I will like to send
each of them an individual text message (not an email) saying you attempted
to use the service, but your service has expired

Thank you

If it's for something really important this might not be the best route -
here in Canada, with Fido Wireless, the email to sms gateway can be
instant, all the way up to 36 hours before you receive them - for something
like alerts this is unacceptable. I've called and the response was pretty
much too bad so sad - you may be better off with connecting a mobile to
the box via Bluetooth or usb, and sending through said mobile..

   Can somebody please give a pointer to a complete neophyte (like me) on

Thanks
C. Savinovich

1) Email-to-SMS gateways are plentiful, and most carriers have them. 
Google will give more details, but WikiPedia has good data to start: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_gateway

2) Connect a GSM phone to your *NIX system.  There are several 
software packages out there to do this via serial port.  Command-line 
tools then can send SMS messages via the local phone.  Put a 
System() call in your dialplan, or (better) use an AGI.

3) Use a service provider that does SMS gatewaying.  Much more 
reliable than the first two methods.  One example firm I've used with 
very easy startup and several APIs including email: Clickatell.com. 
Others: http://www.160characters.org/pages.php?action=viewpid=7

[asterisk-users] Text for built-in recordings

Steve Prior's mention of using Allison's voice with Cepstral reminded me 
to ask: for a listing of the text for the built-in recordings.

I found a web page but I'd prefer not having to scrape the info out of 
it.  I didn't notice anything while wandering through the source code/files.

silvia,

I don't know how to pickup the message but if it is getting into the
dailplan as a variable, you can send it to an AGI() script as a
parameter...
AGI(my_script.php,${IM_TEXT})
if you give me an example of what you have already, perhaps I can think
on it more...

 I like Cepstral.

 Using the information here:
 http://www.oldskoolphreak.com/tfiles/voip/installing_app_cepstral.txt

 You can install app_cepstral after you have installed the package and libs 
 from Cepstral.

 Then you can do something like this:

 [macro-cepstral-demo]
 exten = s,1,Cepstral(voice name=DuchessHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Duchess./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=WalterHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Walter./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=ShoutyHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Shouty./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=WilliamHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is William./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=WhisperyHello and welcome to the 
 world of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Whispery./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=RobinHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Robin./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=LindaHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Linda./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=EmilyHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Emily./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=DianeHello and welcome to the world 
 of text to speech using
 Cepstral.  My name is Diane./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=DavidHello and welcome to the world

 Cepstral.  My name is David./voice)
 exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=DuncanHello and welcome to the world

Have you tried RealSpeak from Nuance (ex Scansoft), available at:
http://www.nuance.com/realspeak/telecom/
I find that quality is very good, at least for my native language
(French-France), and they have a broad choice of languages and voices.

I have written app_realspeak to use it with Asterisk, in a IVR that will
go on production... tomorrow :)

Contact me if interested.

You have flite that is free and, IMHO better than festival
(http://nerdvittles.com/index.php?p=134).

I also tried Prophecy (http://www.voxeo.com/) but I'm still waiting

Re: [asterisk-users] Text to Speech

2006-08-21 Thread Don



Cepstral seems to sound descent...But if you have 
more than one voice installed (Example: different languages)
I can't say it in realtime in the dialplan...I have 
to do a little trick like:

exten = 1,1,System(/opt/swift/bin/swift -n 
Diane-8kHz "Hello World" -o /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/swift.wav)exten = 
1,n,System(sox /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/swift.wav 
/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/swift.gsm)exten = 
1,n,Playback(swift)

When you show app cepstral in theCLI it says 
you can do it like this:
exten= 1,1,Cepstral(voice name="William"hello 
world/voice)

But it doesn't work for me trying to select the 
voice in the Dialplan just tells me my voice is missing or corrupt...but if you 
only have one in the voice directory it works fine...

But someone else made the 
app_cepstral.so

If I could find a correct syntax that worked I 
would change the source and recompile the module.

You have flite that is free and, IMHO better than festival

I like Cepstral.

Using the information here:
http://www.oldskoolphreak.com/tfiles/voip/installing_app_cepstral.txt

You can install app_cepstral after you have installed the package and libs from 
Cepstral.

Then you can do something like this:

[macro-cepstral-demo]
exten = s,1,Cepstral(voice name=DuchessHello and welcome to the world of 
text to speech using
Cepstral.  My name is Duchess./voice)
exten = s,n,Cepstral(voice name=WalterHello and welcome to the world of

Removing the spaces worked!  Is that just a parser oddity?  I've used

Labels work fine (and have been for a while). The snippet you provided
looks correct to me too. Are there are warning/errors when loading
extensions.conf? Does show dialplan macro-dosomething show the
correct labels and all priorities?

I.e.:

CLI show dialplan macro-setcfwd
[ Context 'macro-setcfwd' created by 'pbx_config' ]
 's' =1. Playback(${ARG2})  [pbx_config]
   2. Read(R|pls-ent-num-transfer|11||1|10)  [pbx_config]
   3. GotoIf($[${R} != ]?set)[pbx_config]
   4. DbDel(${ARG1}) [pbx_config]
   5. Playback(call-fwd-cancelled)   [pbx_config]
   6. Hangup()   [pbx_config]
[set]  7. DbPut(${ARG1}=${R})[pbx_config]
   8. Playback(${ARG2})  [pbx_config]
   9. Playback(has-been-set-to)  [pbx_config]
   10. SayDigits(${R})   [pbx_config]

-= 1 extension (10 priorities) in 1 context. =-

[Asterisk-Users] Text labels on incoming call appearances?

2006-04-12 Thread William P.N. Smith

Hi All,

I'm looking at an Asterix system for a small home office, 3 incoming 
lines and eight phones scattered about the house, probably with a GUI 
wrapper like SwitchVox to help with the administration.  I'm still 
looking at phones, and am getting pretty confused.  It looks like the 
phones have all the features _and_ the PBX has all the features, and 
I'm not sure if I'm buying too much phone for what I want to do.


I'm upgrading from a Venture 3-line KSU-less phone system with 8 
sets, which has the following features that we like:


3 lines
shared directory
paging (all or specific phone)
programmable keys (one for each phone, I can tell which is in use and 
can do individual pages)


I'm thinking that I need four-line phones, but with call appearances 
I'm no longer sure.  Can I do the following with 1-line or 2-line phones:


When line 1 rings, all the phones would display Home and the 
CID.  Someone would pick up their handset and be connected to that line.


Then line 2 rings, all phones display Work and the CID.  Someone 
picks up and gets that call.


Line 3 rings, all phones display Fax and the CID. More of the same.

It's easy to figure out how this works with four-line phones, but 
with 1 or 2-line phones, how can the person select which line they 
want to pick up?  Obviously it's easy to just give me the line 
that's ringing, but if I want to put one on hold and have someone 
else pick up from somewhere else, or I want to make an outgoing call 
on the Work line, how do I control my line selection?


Shared directories is very important to us, I can enter a name and 
number at my desk and use it at any phone.  I don't seem to see this 
as a feature on the phones I'm looking at.  Can this be done by (say) 
reading all the phone's private directories, combining them and 
writing them back to all the phones?


In an ideal world, I could look at _any_ phone and see my voicemail 
indicator, is there a way to put up to four voicemail indicators on 
every phone in parallel?


I'm looking at Linksys SPA-941 or 942 phones, and maybe the Polycom 
IP-501, are there any better ones I'm missing?


Many thanks in advance!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Text Messaging or AIM

2005-03-14 Thread Robert Hajime Lanning

 Why not, just use the email address given before from you email
 client.

So, you can generate an SMS message on your Cell phone and send it
to your, say, hotmail account?  Or are you talking about using
an embeded email client on the phone to create an email.  Not using
SMS at all?

 I have my asterisk box setup in voicemail.conf to send me
 notifications to me cell phone using this method. I'm a Sprint
 subscriber (I used to be Verizon, and it worked with them as well), so
 I have * setup to send me an email to
 [EMAIL PROTECTED], letting me know
 there is a new voicemail waiting for me, callerID of caller, and
 duration and in which mailbox. I can then call back my * box and
 listen to the messages, I like this better than the callback feature
 b/c I can do it on my time.

This is easy.  Just put the phonenum@carrier.com address in the
definition of the voicemail box in voicemail.conf.

Though this is not the direction I have been talking about.

Send a text message.  Instead of putting a naked phone number in the 
To: field, put in an e-mail address.  At least with Cingular, you need 
to have text messaging enabled on your cell phone account.

There is no info involved here, you make it sound like you need some
docs, why? just take out the manual of your phone, and look up how to
send messages. Since you have a cingular phone just go ahead and try
it. You afraid of the bill? send it to me :) (never said I'm going to

  Why not, just use the email address given before from you email

 So, you can generate an SMS message on your Cell phone and send it
 to your, say, hotmail account?  Or are you talking about using
 an embeded email client on the phone to create an email.  Not using
 SMS at all?

Yes of course, now since you have a Cingular phone just create a new
SMS message and when it gives you the optiont to chose the recipient
just chose an email address, or enter an email address (yes even to
hotmail, if they use email). Now the return address that shows up when
you send from your phone, is what you would use from your email
(hotmail in your case) to send back an SMS message from email.

 
  I have my asterisk box setup in voicemail.conf to send me
  notifications to me cell phone using this method. I'm a Sprint
  subscriber (I used to be Verizon, and it worked with them as well), so
  I have * setup to send me an email to
  [EMAIL PROTECTED], letting me know
  there is a new voicemail waiting for me, callerID of caller, and
  duration and in which mailbox. I can then call back my * box and

That is if you have a local connection into an SMS network.
I have heard this is available on some European ISDN systems.

In the US, good luck. Outside of getting a GSM phone and
connecting it to your system via a serial port and some sort
of GSM SMS application.

Your best bet is an IM system.  I am looking into this for myself,
as IM access to things like Nagios and Asterisk.

I have an AIM client on my phone, so my plan is:
Jabber gateway to AIM
A Perl daemon to watch for incoming IMs and monitoring events to
generate outgoing IMs.  The daemon can then act on IMs coming
from my phone and do things like drop in a .call file.

You will need two AIM accounts, one for your phone/user access
and one for the daemon.

There are SMS sending gateways out there, but they are sending
only, no way to receive.  This is fixed in the IM solution by
giving the system an account of its own.

There is a program for linux called centericq, this program is for
connecting a linux box to aim, icq, msn, etc something like trillian.
Anyway, this centericq lets you define external commands that can run when
you send it a message containing certain words. Also, you can define a
system call in asterisk. 

The way I see this is simple:

Install centericq on your linux box and get a nick for it so it will connect
to all messengers as would a person. Then define on its external command
file a keyword to create a .call file for asterisk. Then it is simple, just
send a message via any messenger to your linux box and it will create the
call file and asterisk will process it, thus, calling you. :)

How does that sound?

So you basically want an SMS or IM callback app right?

One way to do this would be send an email to an address like
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and have a cronjob query/pop this email
address for your specific message and then when it finds it have it
create a .call file to call you and connect you to whatever context
you setup, etc.  Shouldn't be very hard at all.  This would allow for
emails and I'm pretty sure every cell can send an email.

As for IM/AIM I'd just find a Perl AIM package (quick google returned:
http://search.cpan.org/~aryeh/Net-AIM-1.22/AIM.pm) and again it same
thing, if it gets a IM with the correct details in it, simply create a
.call file to call your cell. Again this too should be pretty easy to
setup.

Here's the link to creating .call files:

As an extension to that idea, if your asterisk host is also your email
host, the you could send mail to whatever user Asterisk runs as. Set up a
.forward file and use procmail etc to filter the message and
authenticate or validate the source (remembering that email is easily
spoofed, so don't let this gateway have access to anything terribly
sensitive), then create a .call file from there. This approach is nice
because it's asynchronous: as soon as the email arrives it'll be processed
and .call will be generated. The cron approach means that you'd have to
wait until the next job runs before any action will be taken, although if
your email doesn't get delivered in such a way that you can do scripting
in .forward, then it may be the only choice.

Well, I was talking about free (on the computer side) SMS generation
and reception.  Generation is easy, all providers (atleast in the

is the problem.  That is why I was talking about using an IM service.

No, not really. You should be able to call your operator (or in Europe, 
any operator since you can send messages between the networks) and ask for 
what you want. 

Another option is to search for one of the protocol names: 
* CIMD 1.3 and CIMD 2.0 over IP
* SMPP 3.3 over IP
* UCP/EMI 2.0 over IP and serial
* SEMA SMS2000 OIS 4.0 and 5.0 over Radiopad and X.25

 create a .call file to call you and connect you to whatever context
 you setup, etc.  Shouldn't be very hard at all.  This would allow for
 emails and I'm pretty sure every cell can send an email.
 
 As for IM/AIM I'd just find a Perl AIM package (quick google returned:

From what I've seen so far, I may just go with the CenterICQ idea, it
seems to be the easiest way of working this. Since I'm not a linux
expert, the easiest route is best. I suppose I can set CenterICQ up to
create the .call in one folder then use the mv function to move it to
the call folder. That way it's not read as it's being written.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Text Messaging or AIM

2005-03-13 Thread Anton Krall
I already have this workling for remote linux admin. For example, each linux
box has it MSN user and I have them on ly MSN list. So if I need to reset a
server, I just send an IM via MSN to the user with the keyword reboot and
the server runs the command.

If you need any help on setting this up, let me know.

 There is a program for linux called centericq, this program is for 
 connecting a linux box to aim, icq, msn, etc something like trillian.
 Anyway, this centericq lets you define external commands that can run 
 when you send it a message containing certain words. Also, you can 
 define a system call in asterisk.
 
 The way I see this is simple:
 
 Install centericq on your linux box and get a nick for it so it will 
 connect to all messengers as would a person. Then define on its 
 external command file a keyword to create a .call file for asterisk. 
 Then it is simple, just send a message via any messenger to your linux 
 box and it will create the call file and asterisk will process it, 
 thus, calling you. :)
 
 How does that sound?



I'm really liking this idea. It sounds like exactly what I need. This sounds
like a bot in irc or the like... Basically I could set a command such as
/call to call me it seems. That would be exactly what I need. Thank you a
ton.

 um, backwards.  E-Mail to SMS.  I have not seen the other way around.

Why not, just use the email address given before from you email
client. I have my asterisk box setup in voicemail.conf to send me
notifications to me cell phone using this method. I'm a Sprint
subscriber (I used to be Verizon, and it worked with them as well), so
I have * setup to send me an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], letting me know
there is a new voicemail waiting for me, callerID of caller, and
duration and in which mailbox. I can then call back my * box and
listen to the messages, I like this better than the callback feature
b/c I can do it on my time.

 Just take a look at this:
  http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=storycid=569ncid=738e=1u=/nm/20050313/tc_nm/column_pluggedin_dc
  Most providers have an SMS to email gateway. To send a message to any
  SprintPCS phone use: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
  for Verizon use: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't know for
  the others. There is also a problem that since Number Portability came
  in last year there is no way of knowing which phone number belongs to
  which provider.
 
 
 Yup, I've messed with ATT's gateway before, they were bought by
 Cingular/SBC.

 Hi,

 then I think it should be OK.

 Would anyone here find this useful? It takes an entered string, and
 returns it as a variable. It might sound clunky, but for short entry of
 things like names, it actually works quite well. What I am looking for
 right now is ideas on what people might need in such a facility, to I
 can tie down the loose ends. Right now it takes:
 - a variable name to be used when returning the string
 - some pre-existing entered digits, that might have come from a
 previous step in a sequence of activities (e.g. if you press a digit at
 a menu prompt, you might what that digit to be the first digit of the
 text entry process).
 - the maximum length of the entered text
 - an overall timeout, so the entry cannot go on forever.

 The software uses Festival to read back what is entered. It has numeric,
 lower case, upper case and symbol modes, and can switch freely between
 them. The entry technique has been field proven in the Dialogic version.

 Any useful input much appreciated.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Text to Speech - Someone needs to do this

2003-07-16 Thread Chris Albertson

People working on this have found that context influences the
pronounciation of words.  I think the root cause of this is
that the human vocal tract cannot re-shape itself for different
sounds instantly and must move from the previous sound to the next
sound, we hear the movement.  If it does instantly change then
we hear it as un-natural robot-like speach.  Your proposed system
would sound just like what it is, a sequence of words.
Good systems not only look at phonetic context but also
inflection like tone, volume and pitch range and speed.

Cursive hand writting is this way too.  Cursive fonts don't
look like real hand writting because each letter is always
the same
