Hmmm, I've always been a litle confused as to why you'd want to run a screen reader like Jaws or hal thru sapi anyway, unless you have some very unusual voices which your screen reader didn't support at all, ---- though that would stil be something of a resource drain I think than just having the screen reader output to the voice directly.

That is however something entirely different from a game outputting to a screen reader.

Beware the grue!

Hi,

Well, that depends. I noticed that the Sapi version of Realspeak
voices do lag a little, but it is n't too bad. However, the Realspeak
Direct voices for Jaws 11 are very responsive and I generally use
something like Scansoft Tom as my default voice rather than Eloquence.

Hi Damien.

I'd fully agree that the orphius synthetic dave and synthetic andy voices
are, ---- well synthetic, and probably are worse than eloquence.

however, I really do like their human voices, the Uk English voice Alan in particular. In fact Alan is the voice I've used for everything screen reader related for years now, ever sinse the human voices first came out, and I've
never had issues with response times at all.

i suppose though as you said, it all comes down to what your used to, ----
I'd probably say the same about eloquence, ie, that it's not much better
than espeak as you do about orphius ;D.

As for the lag in sapi, as I said I've never really seen it myself, ---- not
with the scansoft voices anyway.

Beware the grue!
