RE: [misterhouse-users] Changing Voices and the hourly weather report

[Bruce W. <br...@mi...>]

You should be able to speak voice parm to pick between whichever voices you
have installed.   Note that Cepstral used to support all their voices on
linux, but I see that their current website only has windows and ce
downloads.   You might send them an email to see if they have them available
elsewhere.

Not sure what weather report you are hearing.   If you are not sure what is
producing a specific speech phrase, try doing a 'code search' for part of
the text in that string to find it.

It seems the problems I was having with speech were related to my localhost
being set to 127.0.0.1

I changed it in my /etc/hosts to point to the real machine IP and I now have
voice which gets pushed to my Audrey.

2 questions.. now that my Audrey is talking (with Festival)...
I am running MH on Linux FC2.
I can't figure out how to change the voice.. I've seen references to the MS
voices but this is on Linux and Cepstral only have Windows voices.

and 2nd..
How do I modify the hourly weather report?  Either shut it off or make it
report only at a certain time each day.

thanks
