Hi Mathieu,
I have been trying to use mod_cepstral. I had trouble with it hanging and needing to restart freeswitch after funning only a few hours.
MC suggested that I try tts_commandline to see if that worked better. I did and found I did not have any issues doing cepstral this way.
However, my need is to be able to feed a text file to Swift instead of sending the text on the command line. I have tried using a -f switch as Swift allows, but it seems that tts_commandline does not support this option.
mod_tts_commandline only work with text as a ARG. ${text} is replaced by the actual string, quoted (for security reasons).
Am I missing something here or is there another way of doing this?
You probably want to use cepstral as a system command (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_commands#system) and the playback (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Misc._Dialplan_Tools_playback).
Following is a piece of a trace from the log.
It seems to almost build the swift command correctly. However, the -f option is inside the single quotes, instead of outside of them like the -o (output file) is.
I don't think it is finding the .txt file, as the log later shows that it is trying to speak the filename including the -f option, instead of the contents of the file.
Thanks
