Generate timing files (like karaoke files) for a given text
Posted: Sun Aug 11, 2013 11:05 am
Hello everybody,
I noticed that TextAloud was able to highlight each word it reads while it reads it.
Now, my question is: it there a way to get a "timing list" that associates each word with the time it begins to be pronounced (like a karaoke) ?
For example (the given times are totally random):
"The cat is in the garden" would give:
or something along these lines.
Do you know a way (even involving programming or exploring dark APIs
) to achieve that ? Or any tech doc/link/smoke signal I could follow ?
Or has it ever been considered as a feature idea for a future release ?
Thanks in advance

Code: Select all
The => 0.00
cat => 0.75
is => 1.25
in => 1.75
the => 2.15
garden => 2.40Do you know a way (even involving programming or exploring dark APIs
