Is it possible to pause the playback when reading a string with the FliteController?

This isn’t a feature of FliteController, but it could be added to stock OpenEars pretty easily by adding a new method to pause/unpause FliteController’s AVAudioPlayer if it is playing. In NeatSpeech your option is to send a request to stop, but this will stop at the earliest opportunity to finish an utterance rather than pausing immediately.

It seemed more appropriate to reply here than start a new thread. I have a need to Pause and Resume NeatSpeech output. It looks like I can pause AVAudioPlayer’s output, but I’d really like to be able to do this on a word (or even better, sentence) boundary.

I didn’t see this capability in the Class reference. Did I miss it? If it isn’t there, is it something you’ve considered adding? AVSpeechSynthesizer lets me do it, but your voices sound better… :- )

Thanks!

Well, that’s a very nice compliment :) . The thought has definitely crossed my mind and I appreciate the feedback on expanding the NeatSpeech API. In the short term there is a lot of other stuff on my plate, but once everything that is pre-shipping and in-progress has shipped, I plan to take another look at the NeatSpeech interface and see how challenging those developments would be.
