speechd-up splitting text strings

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

 



hello,

So for the last few months i've been noticing that at times software
speech was getting split up, often in the middle of a word. I didn't
have the motivation to track it down and fix it, but lately its been
really bugging me, a few other people i know have mentioned it to me
off list, and i see that someone posted about this a few weeks ago as
well.

Well I think i may have isolated the problem, but not sure how to fix it.

First, for me it has only ever happened on text that was scrolling on
the screen. if i'm reviewing text using the numpad keys, its fine, if
i hit the numpad plus to read the entire screen it never happens, but,
for example, when scrolling through a man page, if you hit space and
let it read the entire new screen of text, half the words are broken
apart.

its speechd-up....or maybe speakup's software synth driver? I don't
know enough about how that whole interaction works, but i think its
speechd-up I've been using the cvs version that patches into 2.6.21
and prior, and i didn't notice this until around august or maybe july,
and i was using the same speakup source before and after...

i started both speechd-up and speech-dispatcher on loglevel 5, and
reviewed the output. they both in fact have the text in the log file
split up into separate say messages right where the splits are in
speech, and since speechd-up gets the text, from speakup and hands it
over to speech-dispatcher after, speechd-up must be the problem.

below is a few lines of text, followed by the speechd-up log output
for that same text.
I stripped dates/times off each line of the log output and some
repetitive lines for expediency. notice in particular the words,
failed, events, and number in the log out put. they get
repeated...said once alone and next line together with the rest of the
text on that line.
And also, on the line that says "creation time" creation gets put on
its own line, the t from time vanishes, and the rest of the line is
there... wtf?


if someone on this list wants the whole log file and any other info
email me off list that way i don't have to force it upon everyone :-D
