~x86 espeak 1.36 USE="portaudio pulseaudio" When I use # espeak "hello" I can't hear anything, But # espeak -w 1.wav "hello" makes a wave file that works! I try # espeak --compile=en it says: Can't access (r) file 'en_rules'
I committed version 1.37 to the tree. Also, I made a change in the ebuild so that you can only have either portaudio or pulseaudio in use, but not both, since there is no way to support two audio systems simultaneously in espeak. Please test with 1.37 and let me know if you still have this issue. If you still can't compile the rules files, I need to know if you are attempting this as a user, or as root, and what happens when you do this. Thanks, William
Thank you William, Now $ espeak "text" works all right, but still there is problem with --compile as both user and root. output as user: foad@tux ~ $ espeak --compile=en Can't access (r) file 'en_rules' as root: tux foad # espeak --compile=en Can't access (r) file 'en_rules' I test --compile with other languages but the result is same: tux foad # espeak --compile=es Can't access (r) file 'es_rules'
The first part of this issue was that the pronounciation rules were not being installed at all. This has been fixed in 1.37-r1. The rules are now installed in /usr/share/espeak-data/dictsource. Everything in the /usr/share/espeak-data directory can be customised on a per-user basis, and this is how I recommend making changes if you are interested in doing this since /usr/share/espeak-data will be over-written each time you upgrade espeak. Please check the espeak documentation for how to set this up and let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, William
Thank you William, I test it, Everything done in right way. thanks
I have the same problem: "Can't access (r) file 'en_rules". I did what you suggested but i still have the same problem. I intend to generate a phoneme to mbrola, can you help me?
