The VXI* VoiceXML browser integrates an HTTP client interface to manage Text-to-Video contents. This allows to dynamically generating a video content from text. TTV includes audio using the Text-to-Speech interface to access text-to-speech features. The advantage however, of using the HTTP connector is that the “speech” generated is cached by the VoiceXML Browser, and re-used the next time. The text is posted via an HTTP request then the server responds with a standard h263/.h264 or mp4/3gp file. Users can use the TTS to generate menus prompts, for example.
The Text-to-Video works much like Text-to-Speech. It can be used to dynamically generate a video, either static or with animation, from text. The text comes from the <prompt> VoiceXML tag and if the attribute language is either “video” or “text.”
Example:
<prompt bargein="false" xml:lang="text"> Welcome Camera Service! </prompt>
NOTE:
The HTTP Text-to-Video generates an .h263/.h264 or mp4/3gp file.
First unzip and untar the text2video package by using the command:
# tar xvzf text2video_Vx.x_date.tar.gz
Next, go to the directory of the text2video and type the following command:
# cd text2video_Vx.x_date # ./install.sh
NOTE:
Install the script on your Apache/PHP server. Configure the VoiceXML Browser (Text-to-Video Option) and restart the VoiceXML interpreter to get the new configuration.
