<font face="tahoma,sans-serif">Hello All,</font><div><font face="tahoma,sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="tahoma,sans-serif">I have a whole bunch of questions regarding the TTS functionality in FreeSWITCH and Just Generally about Freeswitch on a Sparc based Solaris Platform and then the combo of the two, whether FreeSWITCH can be built on a Sparc based Solaris platform when compiled with a "reasonably" good TTS module be it Cepstral, FLite OR NeoSpeech etc?</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma,sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: tahoma, sans-serif; ">1) Can anyone reflect on any experience they might have had in terms of the performance difference between TTS on Asterisk (let's say Asterisk 1.8) and FreeSWITCH? Is one better than the other?</span></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="tahoma, sans-serif">2) Can One or the other or both be compiled successfully on a Sparc based Solaris platform? </font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="tahoma, sans-serif">3) Would it benefit if I was to use a dedicated box for TTS and throw calls to that box for TTS processing and send back media the way it came after the sound files are generated from the TTS-process?</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="tahoma, sans-serif">4) Please note that the quality of the Translation doesn't need to be impeccable or mimic human speech. It just needs to be understandable enough esp. over mobile phones. The more complex part about it is, that the user directory can/will have names from all sorts of ethnicities/nationalities which may mess up a lot of these TTS engines. So what is the best approach there in this mixed environment</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="tahoma, sans-serif">5) Does the OpenMRCP play any part in any of this? Would I benefit with that? </font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br></font></div>
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: tahoma, sans-serif; ">I think this is the crux of my concerns. Any ideas and/or suggestions to kick off the discussion would be very very much appreciated.</span></div>
