why is TTS's synthesisToFile taking forever to save a string to .wav?












0















I am trying to save a huge string(book pages) to .wav files using synthesisToFile, problem is it is taking 11 years to save the complete file. I even broke it up into paragraphs but still no luck-



 ///
Pattern re = Pattern.compile("[^.!?\s][^.!?]*(?:[.!?](?!['"]?\s|$)[^.!?]*)*[.!?]?['"]?(?=\s|$)", Pattern.MULTILINE | Pattern.COMMENTS);
Matcher reMatcher = re.matcher(charSequence);
/////
int position = 0;
int sizeOfChar = charSequence.length();
String testStri = charSequence.substring(position, sizeOfChar);
while (reMatcher.find()) {
String temp = "";
try { // speak
temp = testStri.substring(charSequence.lastIndexOf(reMatcher.group()), charSequence.indexOf(reMatcher.group()) + reMatcher.group().length());
// save to wav
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS);
textToSpeech.synthesizeToFile(temp, null, new File(String.valueOf(path) + "/mm.mp3"), "speak");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// error
break;
}
}

  • I just checked the generated file size in my file explorer app, after it reaches a certain size (1.6mb) it stops increasing in size. This method is useless
