Hi to everybody,
  it is a few years now since last time I have seen any update to speect.

Is it still under development?

Bests,
Giulio

Hi Simone,
	I am replying to you here, even if we already discussed the issue together, just
to let other people know how to fix it.

The issue is due to the fact that

engine/swig/python/CMakeLists.txt refers to the wrong path for speectPYTHON_wrap.c

and

swig/python/cmake/swigPythonFunctions.cmake refers to the wrong path for ${plugin_lowercase_name}PYTHON_wrap.c

This results in SWIG_C_COMPILE_FLAGS not being passed to those files. This results in a mismatch in the definition
of SWIG_TYPE_TABLE between the python modules and the common runtime library, which causes the issue.

Revision 83455511d1d93a285ebf934369db5d5c19b145f6 in https://github.com/mivoq/speect fixes these issues.

@everyone: that repository is based on the latest published repository available on sourceforge.
It includes small fixes (not many yet) and a new plugin, that is still under development, to enable maryxml
output.

We would be glad to have it merged in the repository on sourceforge, if you think it is useful.

Bests,
	Giulio.

Hello guys,
i found some problems using Speect with python.
I get a segfault at initialization, because in the generated file swigpyrun
SWIG_GetModule
returns NULL.

Any idea on how to fix that?
Note that the c executable runs flawlessy, and i have swig 3

Hi to all,
   after a couple of years trying to find time to do that, I finally
started doing some development with speect.
During my first steps I noticed the cmake flag ERROR_HANDLING. I figured
out that this flag prevent all kind of error handling, but I did not get
why such an option is present. So, what is its purpose? Is it useful for
some kind of debug?

Thank you for your help.
Bests,
Giulio Paci.

Hi Aby,
	thank you very much for your very quick reply.
I just tried the application and it worked as expected.

Thank you very much for this software and the nice examples that comes
with it.

Bests,
Giulio.

Hi,

There is a pure C executable that you can try in the speect/engine/test 
directory called synth_test.c

All of the speect engine is implemented in C, while there are Python 
bindings to the whole library.

regards,
Aby

Hi to all,
	I was looking for a TTS engine written in C and I found speect.
I have tried it using the Python client/server application and it worked
smoothly.

However I would like to avoid python usage. Is it possible? If yes, is
there any example of pure C usage of speect? If not, how much of speect
is implemented in Python?

Bests,
	Giulio.

Hi,

There is just the NLP frontend, the recordings that we had do not belong 
to us.

regards,
Aby

Hi there,

I just would like to know whether there is any usable voice for the Ibibio language. If yes, would you please tell me how to use it? Thank you.
