| Format | VoiceTalkStream\Configure([Voice, Device, Rate, Volume]) |
| Parameters |
| VoiceTalkStream |
| Required. A speech stream returned from VoiceTalk. |
| Voice |
| Optional Specifies the name of the voice in which to speak. This should be one of the voice names returned from a VoiceTalk\GetVoices call, or Invalid to not change the voice. |
| Device |
| Optional Specifies where to play back the voice. This can either be a system device ID (), or the name of a device (such as returned from a call to VoiceTalk\GetDevices()). -1 is the default - usually speaker audio |
| Rate |
| Optional Specifies the speed at which the voice is to speak. Normal speed is "0". Valid values are from -10 (very slow) to 10 (very fast). The default is "0". |
| Volume |
| Optional Specifies the volume at which the voice is to speak. Valid values are from 0 (silent), to 100 (full speaker volume). The default is 100. |
| Comments | A speech stream can be configured to sound differently by changing the rate and volume parameters. To configure output to go to another device, such as a modem, change the Device parameter. If a voice or device is specified which is not valid for this stream, or a problem is encountered while trying to change the stream configuration, the stream will be left unchanged. "VTSFileOutput" is a valid device name. When used, the Speak() module will no longer work, but the SpeakToFile() module can be used to speak a phrase into a .wav file. This return value is the Windows error code for the problem encountered, or zero if there was no problem. |
Will compile and work once if called from Steady State - this is not recommended practice.
