Re: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles
I just discovered AndBible has a TTS feature, and it is (unfortunately) not as good as Hison's example from iOS. This could simply be my old Phone has an old version of Android, and thus, the TTS, or of course iOS has spent a lot of time/money developing the Siri TTS. Is the developer form AndBible on this list? If so did you use a built in text to speech, or something auxiliary? And also if you are on this list THANK YOU! So many people are thankful for having an offline Bible, that is fully searchable, (and all the other wonderful SWORD features we are so privileged with), myself included! And thank you for making the text zoom-able, as well. -- Regards ___ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page

Japanese audio bible based on DAISY3 http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/ To play these bibles, 1. download a DAISY player such as AMIS3 from http://www.daisy.org/amis/download and install it. 2. download zip archived files from the site above. http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/ (e.g. http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/kougo_62.zip for JOHN1) 3. unzip them. 4. run the player and then open the ncc.html file in the unzipped directory.

Re: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles
And Bible uses the built in TTS in the Android device (i.e. if the device firmware was compiled with Google's TTS engine to begin with). If the user installs the IVONA TTS Engine and a suitable voice, and configures the device settings to use that instead of the default TTS, then And Bible will use the current voice from that. NB. There are some Android devices in which the firmware does not include a TTS engine. For some or all of these products, to install Ivona may be of no avail, because the user settings do not have a section which would enable it to be selected. And yes - And Bible's developer Martin Denham) is a member of sword-devel. But see also the mailing list called mobile-devel.

[sword-devel] Audio Bibles
Hi, I e-mailed the Bible Time list about this, but I thought I would e-mail this list as well. Is there support for Audio Bibles built into SWORD? Are there any audio Bibles hosted already? If there aren't any would it be ok to package some to include in the repos, assuming Audio integration could be included in most SWORD programs. I am specifically working on an Ubuntu Touch Bible app, and would like to have an offline Audio Bible, as Faith comes by hearing. It would be great to include this functionality. Of course if crosswire wont host this, I suppose I might get a repo going somewhere. The audio Bibles I have in mind are of course public domain, namely librivox.org. Of course they contain an intro about librivox and are not in verse by verse sections. There is also a public domain KJV bible read by firemen (though I can't remember where I found that one... something like firefighters.org... not sure though) Anyhow thanks for any pointers you can give (especially specific header files if they exist) May the LORD Jesus Christ continue to bless all of you for your precious work! -- Regards ___ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
Re: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles
There is a lot of linked audiocontent available for Xulsword/mkbible. There has also been extensive discussion on this.list on the best way for integrating audio content. Osis allows for that, as do our modules, but so far few have used this.

Re: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles
Can you provide a link to any sort of API, or way to include this existing content through OSIS (or just point me to the correct header files so I can look for myself).
