  • Text to speech for voice on comp?

    I am absolutely sure that I saw a clip of new features for first or audition where there is now the possibility to enter text in a dialog box and it generated as speech to fall into an audio track. This will allow the prototyping and the timetable for one more voice to record later. But I can find everything just not in the software or on all references to it on the web. Does anyone know where is this feature? Thank you.

    This can be done in Adobe Audition, but not in Premiere Pro:

  • Are there plans on improving/adding text anti-aliasing for Windows in future versions?

    Are there plans on improving what the text looks like FF on Windows desktop?

    I learned that it is based somewhat on ClearType, which I confirmed after seeing some differences in the way in which the text is rendered after changing the settings several times.

    The attached screenshot shows the best I could get FF 33.1.1 and 35.0 to return. It is particularly painful on Web sites that use a type of extremely large or small, it's awful.

    P.S. I hope this is the right place to ask about it.

  • Can I just install Microsoft text-to-speech voices?

    I don't really need full language packs, I really care about is having the text-to-speech voices.  Is it possible to install just the voice of text-to-speech for different languages, or that is available in the language packs?

    I installed two language packs successfully, Chinese and Korean, but since then, any other language module, I tried (Japanese, Spanish) fails to install.  Troubleshooting windows update tool did not work.  Clean boot has failed.  Delete the folder under SoftwareDistribution\downloads that contains the .cab has failed.  I'm not going to reinstall the operating system.  It's still a fairly recent installation (Windows 7 Pro upgrade).

    Is there a limit to how many language packs, that I have installed in Windows 8 Pro?

    Thank you.

    -John

    After getting the same error on 2 other machines of Windows 8, I tried upgrading to Windows 8. 1. I had once through a few problems doing this, install several language packs finally worked.  so my conclusion is that several language modules are broken for Windows 8 (more a number of updates), but that the problem has been resolved in windows 8.1.

    (My first attempt to upgrade to windows hung 8.1.  After trying to clean boot and the Assistant to update and still not, I found the page I recommend stop transfer of update services and background, delete the contents of the Windows\SoftwareDistribution direcdtory, restart the stopped services, then try the update again.  After that I could start the update again and successfully complete.)

    How can I turn off text to speech that I turned it on to listen to the voice and now there seems to be no way to turn it off

    Hello

    Follow the steps below to disable text to speech in Windows Vista.

    (a) go to the section on your main screen where you see the time displayed.

    (b) it is called the "bar", all kinds of small icons are visible here, there's even a gadget of the small arrow that would normally point to the right if you have a lot of programmes to help you use windows.

    (c) "left click on"the small arrow in a circle - this will expand the list to display small icons, drip slowly mouse over the bar of 'system' in order to launch a pop - up of each icon, once you reach the icon that says something like "text to speech tool","make a clique right".

    (d) a pop-up list appears showing what options are available - option whatever go to "Properties" or "settings", "click on" this element gives.

    (e) a new Panel will appear - in select here the article that says something like "launch on startup", it should have a box next to it, that will be ticked or marked in some way - "click" this element so that it seems to be clear and followed by the button "apply" "click" the button "OK" - which should solve your problem.

  • Text-to-speech using a variable

    Hello

    Is it possible to use a text variable in the text to speech for a specific slide? Are there examples of this? I use 8 Captivate to create a sensitive project.

    Thank you

    Peter

    As far as I know, it is not possible to insert a variable text into TTS text in Captivate.  In fact, it really must be very careful on the use of certain types of punctuation in Captivate of TTS to avoid conflicts when running.

  • I like the text-to-speech engine in Windows. I want to have the computer voice on Star Trek to be my text-to-speech voice. How can I do this?

    original title: Star Trek computer voice TTS

    Hello

    I like the text-to-speech engine in Windows.  I want to have the computer voice on Star Trek to be my text-to-speech voice.  How can I do this?
    It must be possible, but 2012 already.
    Another way to ask, where is a large collection / selection / compilation of the text-to-speech voices I can install?  Created by Msft or 3rd party.
    Windows 8 voices are not the answer, either.

    Hello

    Microsoft does not speech engines provide additional (voice), but there are a number of third-party products that support the new Microsoft Speech API

    Please use your favorite search engine and browse for voice of Star trek, which can be used for this purpose.
     
    Note: Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be resolved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • Text-to-speech audio continues to play for any other slide - but the current slide is suspended from the output

    Captivate 8.0.1.242 - Windows 7 64 bit - swf format.


    I have this weird error. I have the audio text to speech in my classes. I don't want the PlayBar of captivate. So I have buttons in the content to navigate forward. Each slide is hanging out and waiting for the user to click on the buttons navigate forward. My sound works for the first 2 slides text. Otherwise said, he plays as in the timeline and then stops. Waiting for the user to click on the button before you go to the next slide and the same routine. But after 2 blades, it will not stop. He continues to play the whole audio other slides in the whole cptx. But the current slide is suspended. So I hear everything supposed to be played for other slides, but all I see is a slide.


    When I click on the next slide, he begins to play the audio where it supposed to start for the current slide and plays again all other text in audio from the other slides. This is repeated again and again. Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

    Check the calendar for audio clips, increase the duration of the slide a little and make sure that there is a small space before and after the clip.

    Sorry wanted to add a screenshot, but this feature is currently disabled on this forum.
