Speech recognition for xlobby and girder ?

by **S Pittaway** on Mon Mar 20, 2006 4:24 pm

i was using that, it looks like there might be a size limit/buufer issue?

The film i tried to play first was alien and nothing happens.

Tried as smaller plot and its fine...

Is there a limit on what xlobby can pass as a argument?

looks like its a problem passing the plot...

I stuck a bug report in for it.

I don't think so, most of my plots are long and the work just fine. but some times they are cut. Thats because of the " and & characters. When you pass the plot, it should be in quotes ("") and when the script encouters other qoutes within the plot it tend to cut off, but it will speak the plot up to where the quote was found. Just play around to fix the quotes (sometimes using double quotes solves the problem)

its a .net "feature" -

File type-specific arguments that the system can associate with the application specified in the FileName property. The default is an empty string (""). The maximum string length is 2,003 characters in .NET Framework applications and 488 characters in .NET Compact Framework applications.

Any chance of you having a bash at wiring it into a plugin?

I have started playing with C# but i havent touched com in years...

I can now reliabaly crash my plugin so i guess i am nearly there :lol:

have you guys installed the TTS, Speech Control Panel and an Agent (try Merlin first)

I'll try it on a new clean install machine to if i get the same error

to the best of my knowladge its all installed correctly.

the vb script version works ok, so does a crappy vb exe version that i knocked up a while ago.

I have installed:

-Microsoft Agent core components (395 KB exe)
-language component french
-Microsoft Agent character files the 5 of them
-Text-to-speech engines american and french
-SAPI 4.0a runtime binaries (824 KB exe)
-Microsoft® Speech Recognition Engine (6 MB exe)
-Speech Control Panel (927 KB exe)

It makes me a error .net in XSpeech.Module1.LoadAgent()... when I try to load the agent from the event manager (no error when I try to load it in the skin with a button) but after, when I try show or speak, it tells me that the agent is not load...
