If you're looking for a relatively small package that will install SAPI 5.1, which contains Microsoft Mike and Mary fully on your system, try SayPad from http://inspiredcode.net/4VisImp.htm Aman -----Original Message----- From: rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se [mailto:rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se] On Behalf Of Brian Wolven Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2004 10:55 AM To: rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se Subject: Re: Here's a newer script for generating "talkbox" voice thumbnails c s wrote: > --- Brian Wolven <brian.wolven_at_verizon.net> wrote: > >>c s wrote: >> >>>How do you give it other voice capabilities?

Sorry - that is a apparently a 'merge module' that is to be used with an MS installer (msi) file. I haven't been able to find any package other than the (very large) Speech SDK that seems to do the installation for you. I'd imagine there has to be an easier way though, perhaps just a simple 'wrapper' msi script to do the install. I'll keep looking, and hope someone else finds an easy answer before me. =) _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-03-30 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
