Hi, Iam working on the AsteriskNow version 1.4.2. I basically integrate AsteriskNow with RAGI (RUBY). For the text to speech (TTS) to work on Asterisk, i need to install Cepstral.
I have installed Cepstral and the app_swift-0.9.1.tar.gz swift package. The swift.agi file has been added to the directory /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin.
When i try to make a call, i get an error message:
Syntax Error: unexpected end of file.
I would like to know if AsteriskNow 1.4.2 supports the cepstral engine. If it supports what might be the cause of the error.
I dont know if app_swift works on Asterisk 1.4 or not but AsteriskNOW and Asterisk 1.4 are the same thing. AsteriskNOW is just a linux distribution with Asterisk 1.4 already installed (with the GUI).
Thats great job marco, any idea about the sysntax error message which i get. I always get the eror message as Unexpected end of file from the swift.agi file.
#!/bin/sh
text = echo $*
stdin = "0"
while “$stdin” != ""
do
read stdin
if “$stdin” != ""
then
stdin2=echo $stdin | sed -e 's/: /=/' -e 's/"//g' -e 's/$/"/' -e 's/=/="/ '
eval echo $stdin2
fi
done
I don’t use AsteriskNOW so I can’t help more, I used the Cepstral tts on a standard * installation, I built the * sources myself on an opensuse 10.2 then downloaded and installed the cepstral voices and the dial plan application app_swift.
I have installed the asterisk version 1.4.9 on my linux machine, all the installation steps till cepstral is fine and good enough.
After untaring the app_cepstral.tgz, i got the app_cepstral.c file which i copied to the asterisk apps directory. when i try to use the command “make install” from the main asterisk directory i get the following error:

[quote=“mbruni”]App_swift works with Asterisk 1.4, I tried personally
Marco Bruni[/quote]
But it seems to have broken at 1.4.10
After I installed 1.4.10 the TTS voice is broken/chopping, badly and is unusable. Falling back to 1.4.9 it was OK - I tried with both 8 and 16 KHz voices… not happy :’(
