[hts-users:01202] Re: Error: LoadModelFiles: #duration pdf must be positive value.

[Tóth Bálint <toth.b@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Thank you for your answer. I've checked the byte order of the pdf files, 
and it is big endian. The raw audio format is little-endian, signed, as 
in the CMU-ARCTIC-SLT.

Is it possible, that this error is caused by bad context-dependent 
labels or bad question file? Or what else can cause this problem?

Thank you for your answer in advance!

Best Regards,
Balint Toth
