Wikipedia:Pediaphon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pediaphon is a free service (by Andreas Bischoff) that generates MP3 audio files from Wikipedia articles, using speech synthesis. The service is hosted at the FernUniversität in Hagen (Distance University of Hagen), Germany. These files can be played in a web browser or downloaded to be played on a portable device.

The service was realized by use of FreeSpeech, MBROLA, and the MP3-Encoder LAME. It is a contribution to the WikiProject Spoken Wikipedia.
