btw,

I already tried to replace the lines:

if line.startswith("TEL"):
nr = line.split(":")[1]
if nr != None:
if nr == number:
return fname

with:

if line.startswith("TEL"):
nr = line.split(":")[1]
my_num = number.lstrip('0')
if nr != None:
if nr.endswith(my_num)
return fname

that seems to correct the "040" vs +35840 problem for me at least.

Hi !

Can you help me please, which file you had been edited exactly, and what should be in my case, where all numbers in my contacts are e.g. : + 1 (310) 6545621 please ?

Many many many thanks in advance,

Andrew

@Arto great app thank you very much for all your hard work, but could you please re-insert the text field for unknown caller you had on the previous version ?

Thanks in advance

There are basicly same options for this under "Unknown caller"-tab.

Just change "Call from %number%" and "Call from blocked number." to "Unknown caller calls" or whatever you like :)

Re: "Say who is calling"

@Arto: Don't forget the important feature to cancel the saying of the name IF the phone call is answered beforehand. I have this app that switches automatically to speaker and people are confused when at the start of the phone call hear their own name! Even worse, with the old version it started saying the number.. Great advancements though, it's really coming together fast!

Re: "Say who is calling"

Just something to play with (maybe some of you knew, I didn't until now):

espeak - and therefore espeakcaller - supports SSML (Speech Synthesis Markup Language) tags in the text if the "-m" switch is added to the command line (tab "Misc." in espeakcaller).

I now use SSML to add emphasis to certain words (the "<emphasis>"-element) or change the language within a string. (Say the English word "Sir" within a German sentence using "<voice xml:lang="en">").

The espeak documentation says:

Quote:

-m
Indicates that the text contains SSML (Speech Synthesis Markup Language) tags or other XML tags. Those SSML tags which are supported are interpreted. Other tags, including HTML, are ignored, except that some HTML tags such as <hr> <h2> and <li> ensure a break in the speech.

So you might also use some simple HTML like <hr> for breaks, if this is useful.

Re: "Say who is calling"

there's one thing i've always hated in the S60 speech synthesizer when it pronounced names:

i'm living in austria and most of the people in my contacts database have names that work well with a german pronunciation. however, some people have french, turkish or croatian names that sound awful when the speech synthesizer is set to german.

it would be nice if some fure version (2.0, 3.0,... ;) ) of espeakcaller could allow settings per number. like: you define all settings as you do now, but then you can add certain numbers to the espeakcaller-database and have distinct settings for each of these numbers. this would allow me to set the language differently for some callers, but it would also have the nice side effect that you could have other voices, different texts or maybe even no text at all for some of your contacts.

Re: "Say who is calling"

This is one of the functions i have been missing up until now. I was in the process of learning a bit of python and dbus-stuff to get the caller-id to 'print' but you beat me to it! (and saved me the hassle of spending a week on learning it all :-) )

In short: Thanks for this mighty fine piece of software!

Re: "Say who is calling"

And now it's broken :(
It just stopped working for me, i uninstalled/rebooted/reinstalled it but still nothing, it tried to speak at one of my tries but it was garbled...
Still the synthesizer works preoperly through xterminal....

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

Re: "Say who is calling"

same problem now. dont have time to investigate ATM, but it doesn't make a sound when the call comes in. test-button in the GUI works fine, though.

Re: "Say who is calling"

this is cool stuff!

it works for me so long as there's no umlauts in the text (either directly or in the callee's name). the test from the ui works with umlauts, though.

Re: "Say who is calling"

Hi Arto !

I had found an important "bug" i would like ot report :

Your great application is dependent on : maemo-python-device-env 1.0.0-3.

This is not an issue UNTIL an other application installed which is ALSO dependent on the same package. As soon as it happens, both application fail to operate.

If you wish to test this, simple installe e.g: smscounter widget, and here you go.

May I ask to check how you can compile or such WITHOUT this package ? I am not a programmel, but there are tons od python applictaion does not using this, so surely possible.

Many Thanks for your soonest answer,

Andrew

Re: "Say who is calling"

I just uploaded version 0.4 to extras-devel and garage.
Changelog:

Code:

UI changes:

- Added: Option to repeat saying caller name.

  Note: This is done using SSML markup so -m flag is enabled by default



Daemon changes:

- Fixed: "eSpeakCaller still has no clue about caller name"-bug

  (Phonebook number containing spaces should work)



- Fixed: "Me speaks no umlauts"-bug

 (Umlauts & other non-ascii character should now work (finally?))

This is still under development :)

Re: "Say who is calling"

You could try removing these files with command "rm -r .espeakcaller" from console.
Also you can try manually starting deamon from console typing "python2.5 /opt/espeakcaller/espeakcaller-daemon.py". This might also give helpful debug messages.

Hi Arto,

- I had been updated to 0.4.
- CONFIRMED : I can uninstall that python dev package, not anymore dependent.

BUT PROBLEMS :

1. Every time when phone reboot "eSpeakCaller daemon enabled" checkbox gets OFF.

2. Even if this checkbox ENABLED, espeak caller NOT working. In detail :

TEST is working, but when somebody calls, name / number not said. Basically it is just ringing, thats all. Test numbers and names I tried with :

Name Displayed : "Bakos Andrea - Pocok"
Full name is in : lastname field
Number behind : +36 (20) 658235

AND

Name Dispalyed : "Démi Zsolt"
Full name is in : lastname field
Important : special ancent char in display name !
Number behind : +36 (30) 6678549

Can you be so kind to have a look why it not working ?

Many Thanks for your time and help,

Andras

Hi Arto, i have this problem:

2) every time when phone reboot eSpeakCaller turn off

Anyway, I really appreciate your works!!! :)

I found the problem.

If write characters tilde, eg "número", not warns calls. If the delete is working properly.

Is it complicated to solve this problem?

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Ok i can safely confirm this bug.
If bluetooth headset is connected, the program works perfectly.
Once i disconnect the bluetooth headset it stops working and i get the segmentation fault on the terminal.

This bug is not much of a bother for me cause i mainly need the espeakcaller when i do have my bt headset connected and the phone sitting in a pouch on my belt, so that i know who is calling without taking the phone out to check.

Re: "Say who is calling"

Hi Arto, i note this :
- it's ok: The phone rings, I wait to hear caller name and I answer.

- it's not ok when I answer immeditly before to hear caller name. Then, the program pronounces the name of the caller after the end of call (and repeat, repeat...).

- every time when phone reboot eSpeakCaller turn off

Re: "Say who is calling"

The app is not auto started on bootup.

@Arto
you could try this

in /etc/event.d/

create file espeakcaller-daemon

Code:

console none



start on started hildon-desktop



exec /usr/bin/python /opt/espeakcaller/espeakcaller-boot.py

in /opt/espeakcaller/

create file espeakcaller-boot.py

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

# autostart espeakcaller-daemon on boot



daemonFile = '/opt/espeakcaller/espeakcaller-daemon.py'

pidFile = '/tmp/espeakcaller_pid.txt'



proc = subprocess.Popen("python2.5 " + daemonFile + " &", shell=True)

     

pdFile = open(pidFile, 'w+')

pdFile.write(str(proc.pid + 1))

pdFile.close()

Re: "Say who is calling"

I don't 'see' it either, although it's clearly there when you access the repository from your browser. - strange. might be one of the things that come with the new PR 1.2 infrastructure that's already implemented in the autobuilder, who knows... or else the packe is just broken ;)
