I thought I should report potential issues to developers in cases where people
try to create their own E Speak voices. I was doing a little experimenting
with NVDA and noticed a few things about the pitch setting in the voice files
and NVDA's inflection slider.
It would seem that setting odd ranges such as
pitch 0 255
then setting the inflection slider to 100 percent would cause NVDA to crash
with the following error.
ERROR - _espeak.BgThread.run:
bgThread.run
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "synthDrivers\_espeak.py", line 149, in run
File "synthDrivers\_espeak.py", line 162, in _speakBg
WindowsError: exception: access violation reading 0x0362B198
This same type of behavior would occur with settings like
pitch 0 235 etc. I did however find that a setting like
pitch 50 200
causes no issues.
