Function Convert-TextToSpeech { <# .Synopsis Converts text files into audio files. .DESCRIPTION Parses the contents of multiple text files and outputs each file to an audio file by using Amazon's Polly service (https://aws.amazon.com/polly/) .NOTES Name: Convert-TextToSpeech Author: Chad Miles DateUpdated: 2019-08-10 Version: 1.4.0 .EXAMPLE Convert-TextToSpeech input.txt -Voice Joanna This will output input.mp3 using Amy voice .EXAMPLE Convert-TextToSpeech *.txt -Voice Amy -OutputFormat ogg -Speed fast This will convert all the .txt files to .ogg files in Joanna voice speaking in a fast speed. .EXAMPLE Convert-TextToSpeech -String (Get-ClipBoard) -Voice Amy -UseNeuralEngine -PlayOutput This will grab the Text from the Clipboard, Synthesise it using Amy's Voice with the new Nueral engine and play the output with the default audio player #> [CmdletBinding()] [Alias('tts')] Param ( # The Input file(s), wilcards and just pointing to a folder itself work fine, just know that it will suck in what you ever you give it.
