I am using cygwin to generate my voices for rockbox at the moment because of the accessibility problems with rockbox utility. as a result, voice generation is very slow, taking around two or three hours for me as I use a very high quality synthesizer and have both the -q and -c settings on ten. My question is this. I have just found out that the voice I use to make my rockbox voice completely mangles pronunciation of words such as megabyte and gigabyte. Because I am using cygwin I use the pool command to save my voice clips to avoid regenerating them. So could someone advise me how I can find out what each of the clips in the folder where they are saved are for? as I would like to be able to delete the clips that are not being pronounced correctly, change the pronunciation settings on the synthesizer and then have cygwin regenerate just the clips that need it. As otherwise it will take me around two or three hours just to sort a few minor problems, because I will have to generate everything again from scratch. Its really odd, as when cygwin creates the wav files before converting them to mp3s they have normal sensible human readable names, and the same is true when they are converted to mp3s. However when they are moved by the pool command to the folder where I tell it to save the clips, they seem to be renamed into complete rubbish that no human can understand. For example fff765aa9e99ba6a0f33c3dc279c3069-english.mp3 Any help would be appreciated, as obviously those names just do not make sense, and because of the ways clips are encoded now, I can't play them in winamp. Thanks for any help. Alex. Received on 2009-05-22 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
