Transport TOS values were interpreted as DSCP values without being documented as such. Endpoint TOS values (tos_audio/tos_video) behaved normally as TOS values have historically. This patch makes the transport TOS values behave as TOS values and makes all TOS values readable as string values (e.g. AF11). In addition, alembic scripts have been updated to use the proper field types for all TOS/COS values. (issue ASTERISK-23235) Reported by: George Joseph Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/3304/ ........ Merged revisions 410028 from http://svn.asterisk.org/svn/asterisk/branches/12 git-svn-id: https://origsvn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk@410029 65c4cc65-6c06-0410-ace0-fbb531ad65f3
app_festival is an application that allows one to send text-to-speech commands
to a background festival server, and to obtain the resulting waveform which
gets sent down to the respective channel. app_festival also employs a waveform
cache, so invariant text-to-speech strings ("Please press 1 for instructions")
do not need to be dynamically generated all the time.
You need :
1) festival, patched to produce 8khz waveforms on output. Patch for Festival
1.4.2 RELEASE are included. The patch adds a new command to festival
(asterisk_tts).
It is possible to run Festival without patches in the source-code. Just
add this to your /etc/festival.scm or /usr/share/festival/festival/scm:
(define (tts_textasterisk string mode)
"(tts_textasterisk STRING MODE)
Apply tts to STRING. This function is specifically designed for
use in server mode so a single function call may synthesize the string.
This function name may be added to the server safe functions."
(let ((wholeutt (utt.synth (eval (list 'Utterance 'Text string)))))
(utt.wave.resample wholeutt 8000)
(utt.wave.rescale wholeutt 5)
(utt.send.wave.client wholeutt)))
[See the comment with subject "Using Debian
festival >= 1.4.3-15 (no recompiling needed!)" on
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+festival+installation for the
original mentioning of it]
2) You may wish to obtain and install the asterisk-perl
module by James Golovich <james@gnuinter.net>, from
either CPAN, or his site: http://asterisk.gnuinter.net,
as this contains a good example of how variable text
can be tts'd via asterisk, namely the examples/tts-*.agi
files there. It has been noted that the current expression
evaluation capabilities of asterisk are not best suited
for the generation and manipulation of text. AGI scripting
can be ideal for these sorts of needs. For simpler usage,
fixed, pre-recorded messages may be more amenable for your
purposes.
3) Before running asterisk, you have to run festival-server with a command
like :
/usr/local/festival/bin/festival --server > /dev/null 2>&1 &
