Issue with sayText
Hi,
Our sitepal ID is: 6745697, we are in our trial period.
sayText was working fine till we are working with simple text like, "Hello There" or "How are you"
Today while we test using a bit large text
"Hi Arin, Welcome to Cleard Life. I am stefanie. Your interview will start shortly"
it falls short. We are getting this error continuously.
Please suggest...we are out of time.
We experienced a problem this morning with one of our database clusters. The system is designed to be failsafe, with an automated failover mechanism built-in. Unfortunately the failover did not kick in this time & our team had to manually address the problem.
We are still investigating why this happened & how to better mitigate should this happen again - and will implement improvements as needed.
Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused.
Hi, We are trying to contact your from last 3 days, however didn't get any reply from your side. We want to buy avatar character creation with continuous TTS deploy on our cloud server for both website and phone support.

Hi -
Scenes would normally be embedded in your web page (not downloaded).
Click on the 'Publish' button to the right of the Scene in your SitePal account, to see available options.
One of them is 'Embed in web page' - select that option to embed the Scene in your web page.
If you are interested in generating & downloading a video - that option is not available with SitePal Gold - it requires extra cost. Please send a note to support@sitepal.com to find out more.
Hope this helps,
Gil

Ciao -
Le scene verrebbero normalmente incorporate nella tua pagina web (non scaricate).
Fai clic sul pulsante "Pubblica" a destra della scena nel tuo account SitePal per visualizzare le opzioni disponibili.
Uno di questi è "Incorpora nella pagina Web": seleziona questa opzione per incorporare la scena nella tua pagina web.
Se sei interessato a generare e scaricare un video - questa opzione non è disponibile con SitePal Gold - richiede un costo aggiuntivo. Si prega di inviare una nota a support@sitepal.com per saperne di più.
Spero che questo ti aiuti,
Gil
Mobile avatar have several problems
Dear SitePal,
I find many problems on mobile platforms.
1. AUTOPLAY.
You say autoplay do not work on mobile devices. First, this is surprising as for instance Facebook autoplay all my Videos on my FB Wall. Anyway, you say that play not is possible before user has interacted with page.
QUESTION 1: Does this mean that we may (have to) create a "Speek" button which by using JavaScript starts avatar speech?
QUESTION 2: If so, how is the speech started? There is no 'startSpeech' API call, only a 'stopSpeech' call. Could the 'reply' API call be used?
QUESTION 3: I managed to start speech on avatar running on mobile by creating a button which in its JavaScript click event called 'sayText'. But I had to press the button 3 times before speech was made!
2. MANUAL PLAY.
Manual play on mobile is possible, but I have to click the avatar 3 (!) times:
i. First to get the play-icon to show.
ii. Then I click on the play icon without anything happening.
iii. Then on third click, the avatar starts speeking.
QUESTION 4: Why is there not a *large* play button that is visible from the start on mobile, and that accepts a *single* click to start?
SUMMARY:
*) Autoplay is not working.
*) Not able to start the avatar manually. e.g. from another button on the page.
*) Manual play is so cumbersome that most users will not understand how to do it.
Please help. Mobile is an essential platform. Only having an avatar being utilized by end-users on a PC platform is not an option.
the programming time is limited to 36040
I am trying to select an audio file for one of my scenes, and I have received a popup error that says:
"This audio cannot be selected. The programming time is limited to 36040 seconds and 36040 seconds have been used. Please select an audio up to 0 seconds long."
What does this mean, and how do I resolve it??
Hi Jeremy -
This is curious. Please send a note to support@sitepal.com and we will look into it and clear this up.

"Unlimited" streams
Hello,
For years I've perfected a text-to-speech solution for use with unlimited streams (Platinum formula).
I just realized that in your general conditions you mention:
"The SitePal product online supports up to 5 competitor end users at any given time."
This limitation does not appear, unless I am mistaken, in your web page http://www.sitepal.com/packages/
This limitation clearly makes all my projects impossible to market and use.
So far a great loss of time and money.
For example, I have a large university that would like to incorporate text-to-speech into its training web pages.
It has 1,000 students so 1,000 potential simultaneous users while you limit simultaneous streams to 5!
You will easily understand that they will never be able to subscribe to a Platinum formula ($ 2500 per year).
And I can not offer them my own tools.
This kind of limitation existed technically a few years ago but today, with the dedicated cloud, the virtual machines that just need to be duplicated, the load balancing and flows to the Internet for example of 1.5 Gbps, these limits are they technically justified?
You should offer your customers a Platinum + formula with a number of simultaneous streams that is a multiple of a thousand (5,000 or 10,000) or streams in batches at a competitive price but for simulated streams for example of 5,000 or 10,000
Looking forward to reading you
cordially

Bonjour,
Depuis des années je perfectionne une solution de text-to-speech en vue d'une utilisation avec des streams illimités (formule Platinum).
Hors je viens de me rendre compte que dans vos conditions générales vous mentionnez:
" The SitePal Product purchased online supports up to 5 concurrent end users at any given time."
Cette limitation ne figure pas, sauf erreur de ma part, dans votre page Web http://www.sitepal.com/packages/
Cette limitation rend clairement tous mes projets impossibles à commercialiser et à utiliser.
Donc à ce jour une grande perte de temps et d'argent.
Par exemple j'ai une grande université qui souhaiterait intégrer le text-to-speech dans ses pages Web de formation.
Elle compte 1.000 étudiants donc 1.000 utilisateurs potentiels simultanés alors que vous limitez les streams simultanés à 5 !
Vous comprendrez aisément qu'ils ne pourront jamais s'abonner à une formule Platinum (2500$ par an).
Et moi, je ne peux pas leur proposer mes propres outils.
Ce genre de limitation existaient techniquement il y a quelques années mais aujourd'hui, avec le cloud dédié, les machines virtuelles qu'il suffit de dupliquer, le load balancing et des flux vers Internet par exemple de 1,5 Gbps, ces limites sont-elles techniquement justifiées?
Il faudrait proposer à vos clients une formule Platinum + avec un nombre de streams simultanés qui soit un multiple du millier (5.000 ou 10.000) ou proposer des streams payants par lots à un tarif compétitif mais pour des streams simutanés par exemple de 5.000 ou 10.000
Dans l'attente de vous lire
Cordialement
