For anyone else on Linux that gets the error:<p>Default Audio Player for mp3 files is not set up, like vlc or something.<p>when you try to run it, note that Stephanie depends on the python module os.startfile[0] which apparently is a Windows only thing that works like xdg-open. I'm not a python expert but here's what I did: the offending file is stephanie-va-master/Stephanie/TextManager/speaker.py. If you edit line 15 which is:<p>os.startfile(self.speak_result)<p>and change it to:<p>os.system("xdg-open " + self.speak_result)<p>everything works.
Somebody else more knowledgeable can probably suggest something better.<p>[0]<a href="https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/os.html#os.startfile" rel="nofollow">https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/os.html#os.startfile</a><p>Edit: Fixed! They fixed it by wrapping that line in an if statement checking the output of sys.platform. Very responsive dev.

There are lots of projects like this today; but I think the most important and useful thing (profoundly missing) is an open source state-of-art offline (or maybe hybrid) speech recognition package. Until that happens, almost nothing has changed.

I would recommend re-recording the video with a better audio setup, including a good mic or try to process the audio somehow. It's a bit difficult to hear.
How many times have you complained about 99% of soldiers being male? Let me guess, none. Or 75% of suicides being males? Let me guess, none too. Now, how many times you have complained about the gender of artificial computer voices like you just did? many times right? Not only you give this kind of inane issues any relevance whatsoever, you give none to any actual form of equality and pretend us to take it seriously.
