Text to Speech

Post by wrichards8 »

Does anyone know if there are any PHP text to speech things, or does PHP provides its own text-to-speech engine. I could use eSpeak to create audio descriptions of links/areas of the screen but I'd rather do it on the fly

i'll do a tutorial on it at somepoint, but using google translate you can do this
I don't like to brag, but I wasn't circumcised. I was circumnavigated. ;)

You definitely cant do anything that advanced directly. Not that I have tried it, but I imagine it would take some serious work to do it in pure php not to mention an awful lot of recording of you speaking ;) For something like this you are better of using an external API, google provides one that I know of and there are probably others.
