* No dependences from extra frameworks.

Overview

The library uses a text-to-speech API of Microsoft Translator, so a Bing AppID is required to work with it. You can get the AppID at Bing developer center.

Please note, for a commercial application you need a license agreement from Microsoft. For more details, please, visit Translator Developer forum or email to mtlic@microsoft.com.

For a non-commercial applications, the Microsoft Translator service is free within following limitations:

* a text size must be less 1024 chars;
* maximum 50 requests in a minute per an IP address;
* an attribution to Microsoft Translator (like a “powered by …” text at a web page).

Good news, RoboVoice Speaker can split a long text on chunks automatically, and play them one by one.

The library is compatible with all browsers, that can play WAV -files by an audio HTML5 element. If it is not supported, then RoboVoice falls back to Windows Media Player (WMP7+) to play the files.
