[App_rpt-users] Faster telemetry

No nothing special is needed. It uses sox and lame so if you don't have those you need to install them. Google voice produces mp3 files. Google also has a text size conversion limit - I believe it is 90 or so characters. The script handles that, allowing unlimited length by patching files together. It also converts mp3 to ulaw and 8K sample rate.

    OK I guess what I'm getting at is there something extra that needs
    to be added to an ACID install to use that (Google voice generated
    files) or can the voice files be made off line and just copy them
    over to the nodename directory like I do with my custom voice files?

      Jon,

           There is a script in the BBB release that automates it. If
          you don't have access to that I can see about making it
          available. It should work on any platform.

          See - http://www.crompton.com/hamradio/BeagleBoneBlackAllstar/bbb_tts.pdf

          I have not looked into it but I believe other voices and
          languages are available.

          Remind me if I don't get to it.

          I use audacity to make my own connect messages. How do you use
          Google voice to make the messages?
