Pause method

[tal weissler]

Hello,

I was wondering if there's any way to pause while playing or saying (or even asking) in adhearsion

for example:

answer

say "please take a minute to think of a number between 1 and 10"

#pause for 60 seconds (how?)

say "Please say that number out loud"

Thanks,

Tal

Hello,

in line of principle sleep() should work.

Could you describe your use case in a bit more detail, so we can let you know if there are better ways to do the same thing?

sleep should work for pausing while saying or playing, but what about while asking?

What if I need to ask for input while saying something, pausing, and then continuing to say things (while all that, I want to still be able to collect input). something like:

result = ask "How many woodchucks? Enter a number followed by #." pause for 10 seconds "if you can't decide you can just choose 3 or 4", terminator: '#'

With regular AGI and asterisk it is recommended to use play silence/xx in asking command

Hello,

I understand. I also generally just use a timeout and play a different message on the second pass. It does essentially the same thing, but with less moving parts.

Best regards,

Luca

Alternatively if you're using a proper TTS engine you could use the SSML pause tag: https://www.w3.org/TR/speech-synthesis11/#edef_break
