Title: How to Get Haptek to Animate While Reading Text
Post by: Don Ferguson on December 30, 2004, 12:15:36 pm
Hello,

Our forum software is apparently unable to register new forum members at the moment.  Mr. Bill Peck e-mailed the following inquiry from the United Kingdom, and asked me to post it here for him:

--------

SAPI 5 Text to Speech engines such as Hal's will speak in real time text that has been copied to the clipboard.

How do I get the Haptek Player in Hal or PeoplePutty to mouth the audio thus produced?

I could write a Theatre Script in PeoplePutty, but that all has to be preprepared. I want the flexibility and speed to control the Haptar with the 'copy to clipboard' function just as I can with Text to Speech.

Many thanks,

Bill Peck

I hope that several of us can answer Bill's question, and hopefully, he will soon be able to join the forum!

Thank you and best wishes for the New Year,

Don
