Use of SSML

[bebersb]

I tried to use SSML when having my texts spoken by Amazon Polly.
Unfortunately, it does not work. See the example below - I tried both with and without .

Does anybody have an idea?

Thanks.

slides <- system.file("test", c("mab2.png", "mab1.png"),
                      package = "ari")
sentences <- c("Welcome to my very <s> interesting lecture.",
               "<speak>Here are some fantastic <s> equations I came up with.</speak>")
ari_spin(slides, sentences, voice = "Brian", output = "Videos/slides_test_test.mp4")

You need to pass ari_spin(..., tts_args = list(ssml = TRUE))
