NAME
kinetophone - Kinetophone Narration System
SYNOPSIS
The Kinetophone system provides the following programs:
kinetophone_console
-- command line sound recorder
kinetophone_builder
-- command line movie builder
kinetophone_narrator
-- GUI for narration over still images
kinetophone_vox
-- command line narration generator using speech synthesis
DESCRIPTION
Kinetophone is a set of programs to provide live audio recording, live
voice-over narration, and narration using speech synthesis.
OPTIONS
Each program has a number of command line options, see the man page
for each for details.
CONFIGURATION FILE
By default, the programs use the common file:
~/.kinetophone
for program options. Each Kinetophone program uses options from this
file that it recognizes and ignores all others. The location of this
file can be changed by using
-i
or
--config
on the command line. Options should be specified one per line with
the same syntax as the command line except for any leading dashes.
For example, when the following line is present in the configuration
file:
level-meter-max-width=yes
kinetophone_console
the level meter will span the entire terminal width for the
Kinetophone console recorder.
OPTION PRECEDENCE
You may specify (valid) combinations of command line and configuration
file options for each program. Command line options override override
configuration file options.
NOTES
DBUS
We are developing an experimental DBus sound recording and narration
server, but its functionality and interface is subject to change. The
server program is called
kinetophone_dbus_server.
The source distribution has test clients demonstrating the interface
in ./src/dbus.
LIBRARIES
The Kinetophone system uses the excellent third party libraries
Portaudio for sound capture, libsndfile for audio file input/output,
gtkmm for the graphical user interface, libxml++ for XML support,
Boost for programming support, Poppler for PDF rendering, FFmpeg for
video encoding, and Festival for speech synthesis.
