hello we have done the voice prompts. what is online under http://freeswitch.xpirio.com/ is only a start as we wanted to do a second recording session to complete the prompts. also the xml files and maybe the mod_say module has to be adapted. maybe we can join our forces here, i have not that much time right now but i can organize the recording session give some input and so on. we also hope that this prompts are not only useable for austria but also for germany. br On 2011-03-15 23:09, Christian Benke wrote:
Hi!
Are there any other german voice-prompts available? The ones provided by xpirio(http://freeswitch.xpirio.com/) have some flaws unfortunately.
There's also a possible problem with the word "Eins"(one), as we need 3 different "flexions" of the word: - Eine - e.g. in Voicemail for "one new message"(Female form) - Einer - male form of "one" - i didn't see a use for it yet, but that doesn't mean this case does not exist - Eins - e.g. spelling of "1", this is the only form currently working with type "items" in speech management
Additionally we have male, female and neuter versions of counted numbers, this applies to all numbers, not just "one". The english equivalent is "XXth", so we can cover one gender with the h-XX.wav files. I'm not sure if female and neuter-versions of the files are actually needed(Xpirio has recorded a neutrum-version of the h-XX.wav files, but for e.g. say type "DATE/TIME" we would need the male form)
I'm not a c-developer, so i might be wrong - but skimming through mod_say_de.c i saw some exceptions, but not for these cases(Sorry in advance if i'm wrong). Also i would not know how to tell the "say"-application to use these special forms if they existed.
Is it possible to cover this/manipulate mod_say with "speech phrase management"? Judging from the available documentation it seems not...
Other complications with german grammar might appear - i've just started using the german sound-files today in the afternoon and tested with voicemail mostly - but i would dig deeper and happily assist any developer who wants to get his hands dirty - in real time via phone and IM and 24h if needed(CET here).
Sorry again if i missed an existing solution, it's been a long day.
Best regards Christian
