I got into the readme file but I'm at a loss where I go from there. Can you point me in the right direction and then give me a big shove? I'm guessing I need to drop the files into the /etc/asterisk/local directory but need a little more info. I'm using a RPi 2 ....I'm wanting to do AR Newsline specifically. I am thinking I'd like to put this on a stand alone node and just tie it in on Sunday when we do Ar Newsline and our net. I have been doing this manually, pre-recording and editing with 6 second pauses every 2 minutes or so with Audacity, then manually keying it into our system through an audio mixer. It works ok but I need to babysit the entire broadcast. It's been becoming a bit of a PITA!<br><br></div><div>Just one other question. Does this script do logical breaks or does it chop sentences up in illogical spots? I'm really interested in a quality reproduction of the original broadcast with intelligent spacing. <br><br></div><div>Any and all help greatly appreciated.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Aloha Jim NH6HI<br></div></div></div> </div></div> </div>
