How to get viavoice working (was Re: where did viavoice go?)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In all honesty festival is the better choice here. Viavoice is rapidly
getting out dated, and it has problems with certain sound cards which makes
speech real choppy.
I suggest using festival or freetts with gnopernicus which I have tested
with the latest build of gnopernicus on a Red Hat 9 system.
