Hi. I am creating a new thread as I feel this is a separate issue. What I am looking for is to know if Cepstral TTS is working on our Vicidial.

Reading on to forums shows that we need to edit extensions.conf and add a dial plan. But I don't understand this. Can someone please give a scenario so I would know what to put in extensions.conf? FYI, Vicidial is working fine with outbound calling already in place. I am just confused on how to do a simple test with cepstral.

Just so I understand: You'll pay for a vCenter Server ... but you won't pay for Vicidial Tech Support? I'm insulted. LOL

Sample extension 2000:

Code: Select all

exten =>2000,1,NoOp()
same =>n,Set(foo=${CURL(http://ip.whowebwhere.com/TTSTest.php?cepstral=output)})
same =>n,swift(${foo},5000,5)
same =>n,NoOp(${SWIFT_DTMF})
same =>n,wait(2)
same =>n,swift(${foo})
same =>n,wait(2)
same =>n,swift(${foo})
same =>n,Hangup()


Surf to http://ip.whowebwhere.com/TTSTest.php?cepstral=output to see what it will be playing. When you change it to your own variable data, avoid punctuation for now (until you learn the syntax of TTS text at least).

Thanks William. This TTS in Vicidial is a new project. Hopefully in the future, we would purchase your support and we'll be best friends!

My best customers are the ones who get Vicidial up and running and then look for Efficiency. They come to us for automation/integration/customization to get new functionality, save time, gain power, and link to other running systems. We'll be here when you are ready.
