news 28 Posted February 15, 2009 ======================= * What is gnome-speech? ======================= Gnome-speech provides a simple general API for producing text-to-speech (TTS) output. It also provides drivers for several TTS engines, both commercial and open source. The gnome-speech 0.4.24 release is designated for all releases of GNOME since v2.12, though it has only been tested on GNOME 2.24 and trunk. ========================================= * What's changed for gnome-speech 0.4.24? ========================================= gnome-speech 0.4.24 * drivers/espeak/espeakspeaker.c: Fix for bug #571217 - espeak driver parameter ranges do not match espeak. This change has the most impact on being able to adjust the pitch for a voice. You can now make the pitch significantly lower than you used to be able to do. * gnome-speech/speaker.c, drivers/eloquence/eloquencespeaker.c: Fix for bug #560439 - GNOME Goal: Remove deprecated GLib symbols. NOTE: I don't have the eloquence package (it's a commercial system), so I was unable to verify the changes made to that file. ===================== * Where can I get it? ===================== Source code: http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-speech/0.4/gnome-speech-0.4.24.tar.bz2 http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-speech/0.4/gnome-speech-0.4.24.tar.gz Enjoy.
