We are developing an asp.net app. We deployed it on Win Server 2003
where we installed a ScanSoft voice (licensed but they do not give
great support!!). We have also installed some demo voice from
Cepstral.
We have this simple code that save the output to a file.
If we select any voice (Microsoft Sam or the Cepstral ones) it works
fine, if we select ScanSoft it procudes a 46 bytes long (short!) wav
file. Basically empty. This is the code:
public string SaveToFile(string text, string path, string filename)
{
SpAudioFormat F = new SpAudioFormat();
F.Type = SpeechAudioFormatType.SAFT11kHz16BitMono; // here
we have already tried all possible formats
string file = string.Format("{0}\\{1}.wav", path,
filename);
SpVoice m_voice = new SpVoice();
m_voice.Voice =
m_voice.GetVoices(string.Format("Name={0}", this.Voice),
"Language=410").Item(0); // yes it is an Italian voice, we tried with
409, empty, selecting the voice directly, etc
SpeechStreamFileMode SpFileMode =
SpeechStreamFileMode.SSFMCreateForWrite;
SpFileStream SpFileStream = new SpFileStream();
SpFileStream.Format = F;
try
{
SpFileStream.Open(file, SpFileMode, false);
m_voice.AudioOutputStream = SpFileStream;
m_voice.Speak(text,
SpeechVoiceSpeakFlags.SVSFlagsAsync);
m_voice.WaitUntilDone(Timeout.Infinite);
}
finally
{
SpFileStream.Close();
}
return string.Format("{0}.wav", filename);
}
Any ideas? I have looking into this for 2 weeks now! I would say that
it is not a problem related to security rights on the server as I
tried to assign admin rights to aspnet, give rights to folders etc.
Please also note that Scansoft voice works perfectly in Control
Panel / Speech.
Thanks, thanks a lot! |
