Hi Vladimir -

We identified a problem with the built-in AI players - they do not support Cyrilic - but the API does. That's good, because the Players are being deprecated (as we move to HTML5 playback soon) - but the API will be supported moving forward.

So I encourage you to use the API solution. The programming required is relatively minimal - and we have an example in the support pages - http://www.oddcast.com/support/sayAI.html

This example is in English - I'll see if we can put up an example that works in Russian.

Hope this helps

Gil

Hi Shaun -

SitePal characters can deliver most features/capabilities without any programming. And to allow extended capabilities we have made available the API. The functionality that you are looking for falls under that category - it is only supported by using the API (hence via programming).

Many of our customers know how to handle basic programming in HTML & Javascript - and that should be enough in this case.

For those that do not feel comfortable dabbling in code - they often times get a consultant to do so.

I hope that explains the context of my response and why it had to be technical. I am sorry if you found it confusing.

Best regards,

Gil

Hi Helmut -

Yes - it is possible to switch voices in mid-speech, including from one language to another.

You can use SSML tags to do so - as per the following example.

Please try the following example & adapt it for your needs - select voice "Julie" in the sitepal editor - and paste this text in -

I can change my voice while I speak! <voice Name="Bridget">A posh accent if you please</voice>! or speak in a different language! <voice Name="Violeta"> 1 2 3 4 Cinco de mayo </voice>

The above example uses only voices from engine 3 (Julie, Bridget, Violeta). Note that you must use voices from the same "engine" and that only voices from engines 2 and 3 support this functionality. You can find the list of voices per engine in the API Reference document (see appendix)

Hope this helps,

Gil

François -

We're looking into it.

Elliot -

We located your email to support - it came in after the end of the workday yesterday which is why support did not immediately respond to you. In any case - you should be all set now. Let me know if you still experience a problem loggin in.

Regards

Gil

How about this?

Hi Elliot -

You wrote to support and received no response? Not sure what happened - sometimes emails go into spam...

I activated your account - so you should be all set, your login will work. I also extended your free trial by a few days.

Take care, and let me know if anything else is amiss...

Best,

Gil
