Date: Fri, 3 Nov 2006 01:24:53 +0100 Hello Peter If you have any SAPI4 or SAPI5 compatible speech engine on your computer, it's actually very easy to generate a Rockbox voice file. Download the listvoices.vbs (for SAPI5) and listvoices_sapi4.vbs from the voice wiki and run cscript listvoices.vbs and cscript listvoices_sapi4.vbs from the command prompt. The VB script should then return a list of all speech engines currently installed on your system. If you are interested, I can send you a ZIP archive of ,my own voice generation scripts with batch files. You will still need speech engines, but several are made available freely for private use. Unfortunately, distributing the generated speech as sound files may often constitute a breach of the licensing conditions. Silly but true.
