Ubuntu :: Change Default Voice In Festival
May 17, 2010
when I change the .festivalrc file to have (voice.select 'nitech_us_slt_arctic_hts) it seems ignored.I also tried (set! voice_default 'nitech_us_slt_arctic_hts), but that gives errors.

I am working on a robot project and the robot uses a custom light version of Linux (it has the Freescale Dragonball CPU in the bot so it doesn't have much "room"). We are using flite to do text-to-speech. I would like to know if there is a way to create a vocoder voice for this? Is there already a vocoder voice that works with flite or festival? Or is there some kind of voice creator that can be used to create voices for flite/festival?

I want to run "festival" (voice synthesis) without an X server running - from the command line of a console or from a "cron" job. I've been searching the web for a while and still can't understand why access to the sound card requires an X server. I can run a command-line sound program from inside an X session just fine, but from a console I get "XOpenDisplay() failed" or "Cannot connect". What do I need to do?

I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. Everything works well, but I have problem with sound. Output is OK as I can hear any sound from the computer; but there is no input sound from the mic. I am unable to record any voice or talk in voice chat.

Does anyone know of a commercial program that will run on openSUSE?I need something that is fairly user friendly, identifies individual voices, and does not require Wine. The machine is to be completely controlled by voice and would be programmed to issue vocals in response to vocal requests for what is in the various databases and I/O software, such as motion control and other sensor subsystems. In other words, a program that lends itself to AI robotics.I do not have the time to develop CMSphinx, and I am willing to pay. I have been on a few sites but they are cryptic as far as the technicals, which I do not fully understand anyway.

How can I record text to speech output from festival to an audio file like mp3 or ogg?
My guess would be to pipe it to a command line recorder

How I send clipboard to festival or what is wrong here? #!/bin/bash

xclip -selection clipboard -o | festival --tts Voice changed here: echo '(voice_nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts) (SayText "say this please")' | festival

Has anyone come across a means to output rss feeds to audio? A Google search led me on a "wild goose chase". I was looking for a newsbeuter or snownews plugin of sorts. Either realtime output to speakers or piped to speex/ogg/mp3 I *really* need to learn how to code, so I can do these things myself

I am attempting to write a program using Festival as the TTS output. It is a weather system, so
1) takes raw data from sensors on the input.
2) converts it into a text message
3) let festival take the message and turn it into audio that I can then route out to the telephone system.
Here is my main block of code using festival:
[Code]...
I imagine some of my problem is being a C/C++ newbie, but is there anybody out there able to give me some hints? Maybe there is a different or better way to fork that process. My plan is to keep updating the buffer whose pointer is passed to the function process() with my serial port processing program in the main loop. I can protect it with a mutex during the festival_say_text() function, but otherwise it will be accessible.

Debian testing: $ uname -a Linux jilldando 2.6.32-trunk-486 #1 Sun Jan 10 05:53:18 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux Today I upgraded my PC with a Radeon HD 5550 video card, it has HDMI o/p with sound on it. After boot up I get get the usual sounds from the mother boards onboard intel sound card EXCEPT speech. Initially I thought it would just be that alsa might be piping synth usuage to the Radeon card so I edited the alsa-base.conf file. So I added the following to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf alias snd-card-4 snd_hda_intel
and changed: options snd_hda_intel index=0 to: options snd_hda_intel index=0,4 and rebooted, but this made no difference. Still startup sounds and sounds etc but no speech. I used the alsa project to check and these are the results: Code:

One of the greatest things about Linux, ( I'm currently using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) is your ability to install more than one version of java. Ubuntu, and by default, comes loaded with OpenJdk, which is an open source version of Java. As I stated in a previous discussion, I had some issues to run glassfish with the OpenJdk, so I decided to install the "closed" version of Java directly from Sun microsystem's website ( Hosted by oracle nowadays).
After downloading the latest Java development kit(JDK) which also includes the Java Runtime Envirnonment (JRE), I installed it from the terminal. The java file I downloaded was a ".bin" file. I have explained in the previous discussion, how to install a .bin file.
The installer will extract all the contents of the ".bin" file to a folder in the same directory as of the ".bin" file. Assuming that you have extracted the contents of the ".bin" file to a folder on your Desktop called JAVA6, then the path to this folder would be:
/Desktop/JAVA6
after that go to your terminal window and do the following: sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/Desktop/JAVA6/bin/java" 1
Then issue the following command:
sudo update-alternatives --set Desktop/JAVA6/bin/java
This should set your newly installed java as your default JVM and JRE.

Right now I dual boot Linux and Doze 7. As normal, grub appoints Ubuntu to be the OS highlighted to boot from. Is there a way to edit the boot list so that my Windows7 will boot automatically. Reason being my wife tends to get a little grumpy because she does not know which to choose from and does not like Ubuntu,,,yet.

On my netbook (I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Remix, 10.04) the default option in the Grub menu is Ubuntu. Problem: I'd prefer it to be Windows 7.
I've tried using Startup Manager, which I've used successfully in the past. The program loads fine and lets me change all of the options, and saves and closes fine. But when I restart, the bootloader begins with Ubuntu and a 10 second timeout instead of Windows 7 and a 3 second timeout.
I've also tried editing etc/default/grub and, again, I was able to change it and save it without a problem (default menu item: 4, default timeout: 3). I also did a 'sudo update-grub' to try to get it to stick.
Still nothing. Every time I start up the computer, it's set on Ubuntu 10.04 and a 10 second timeout.

So, I just installed Kubuntu 10.04, and couldn't let things be, so I installed GNOME, and plan to install a few other desktop environments for fun later. However, when I installed GNOME (apt-get install ubuntu-desktop), I realized that KDM's default session is whatever session you used last time. I'd rather it simply be KDE, since I know I'll be using it most out of any of the others. How can I make the KDM default session be KDE, instead of whatever the previous session was?

On this particular machine I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 & Open SuSe from the first hard drive & LinuxMint 9 plus Mandriva 2010 on the second drive. I've found out from posting elsewhere on this site that the Ubuntu family & Suse use different versions of GRUB so one may not boot the other. Ubuntu's boots itself, Mint 9 & Suse but not Mandriva, Mandriva's boots itself & Suse, Suse returns the same favour. So my work-around has been to install the Mandriva bootloader onto a floppy & Ubuntu's onto the MBR.
Now, the issue is I want Mint 9 to be the default but when I try to edit the menu/ist file using gedit all I get is a blank page, no data.

I recently installed Karmic, and want to change the default Grub entry to Windows XP. Having done some research and tried things out, I am a bit confused. I have edited etc/default/grub so that it has GRUB_DEFAULT=6 (to correspond to my XP installation) and GRUB_TIMEOUT="3", but after running sudo grub-mkconfig the grub.cfg file still says set default="0".
