TTS Text-to-Speech

[ncborges]

I can see great oportunities with the tts functions in a radio automation software specially when used as indoor radio, automated shops or supermarkets. Wish to know if it's possible in the actual version 5.4.0.1 Beta, use the TXT files  (or any other type of files) with the TTS fuctions.
Will be great if we can schedule as eventes, some pre-written texts to be read for the tts voices.
Wish ask, how do I select the desired voice to be used with this or that announcement. Seems at the moment, we have no options to choose the voices..
regards
Newton

The ability to read text files contents will be added in the next update.

Regarding voices - it uses the default system voice (the one you choose in Windows Control Panel - Speech).

On the next updates, there is a chance that you can choose the voices through the templates?
It was made for another software using TTS but seems the people loose the interest in develop functions for this plugin where you can use .txt or .xml as templates. See example below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Table>
  <Settings>
    <Tracks2Speak>3</Tracks2Speak>
  </Settings>
  <Message>
    <Voice>0</Voice>
    <tts>It's $now-hour$ and $now-minute$ minutes now, and we are listening $artist$, $title$. Enjoy!</tts>
  </Message>
  <Message>
    <Voice>1</Voice>
    <tts>Well, it's a beautiful weather outside and you are still listening our station! That's great! Now, we are listening $artist$, $title$!</tts>
  </Message>
  <Message>
    <Voice>0</Voice>
    <tts>Now, we will listen $artist$, right here on WRTTS, stay tuned for more great music!</tts>
  </Message>
  <Message>
    <Voice>1</Voice>
    <tts>This was a great song, but now it's time to move to another great artist: $artist$ and to listen the track $title$.</tts>
  </Message>
</Table>

But at the moment, if it reads .txt files will be a great addition

Kindest regards

Yes, I think it will be possible to add.

Ho comprato una voce virtuale e l'ho caricata su Windows come voce preferita e devo dire che funziona bene. il problema che il capo della radio continua a leggere la voce di Elsa .. come posso fare?
