VaKo I guess a real Kate would come in very handy...unfortunately you can't download those yet. I was just surprised that the read headlines sounded so much different than the usual "Kate" voice I hear when it answers me during voice control. Thanks to all of you for your great help. I think I'm gonna be satisfied with what I got right now.

Thanks VaKo I changed it and it worked. It was using Kate (an incredibly natural voice) but it sounded so bad that I couldn't recognize her - not only the sound - the "naturalness" as well. Any idea why that could be?

Hi there I did change the voices in the standards and that works apparentely. But the problem is that the voice in the wave file sounds completely (!) different than the one in the settings. To be more specific: It's like a low quality version (not only the sound - the naturalness as well) of the voice. It seems that I heard "Kate" before (sorry...) but I couldn't recognize that as it sounded so badly. Any ideas

Hi Computer_Kid And thanks for the fast answer. I don't use the NeoSpeech voice through another application. These voices can be added to the TTS engine of windows. As I mentioned: The voice is defined as a standard in these settings. It just isn't used to read the RSS headlines :(. What would I have to do to change the voice?

Hi everyone I've just been infected with the HAK.5 virus because of your episode with the RSS Alarm clock. After I watched that, I immediately downloaded all available episodes and watched those too. My opinion is the same as almost everyones in this forum...great great work and amazingly interesting. I set up the alarm clock right away and ran only into one minor problem, which answer I couldn't find - neither via google nor in your forum. I purchased the NeoSpeech Voices Kate (incredibly great) and Paul because I control my MediaCenter through voice recognition. As the software I use to do that can "answer" me, I needed something different than Microsoft Mary. Now I wanted to implement the Kate voice into the RSS Alarm clock but because of my lack of skills (!) and experience (!) with scripts I really wasn't able too. The Kate voice is already defined as standard. Could someone please point me in the right direction?
