I am looking into another text to speech option which is local to the BBB/Rpi2. It's using espeak. Not sure how well it will work out. It works better then the old festival TTS. I'll let you know if it's viable. in the mean time, disable the weather script cront tab entires and use the "clearWxScripts" to clean up the directory space. 73, Chris w0anm On Fri, Jul 24, 2015 at 8:55 PM, Christopher Kovacs <w0anm73@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Greg,
Something is going on with google text to speech. I am looking into it. the mp3 file being returned is failing to be converted to a wav file using lame decode.
The file contains html data and is being redirected.
This may require changes to the core text to speech scripts.
More to follow...

After a restart on my BBB my weather scripts broken. Tried running the config again to no avail. I get
mv: cannot stat ‘/tmp/tts/audio3894.ul’: No such file or directory
as the output of running the script that is in crontab manually. tmp directory has green highlight when ls is issued. Not sure what that is but it looks like the script doesn't have ability to write to tmp folder. I sent touch testfile to the directory manually with no issue. Any ideas??
