Error When Selecting Language and Speech #97

Closed liamtimms closed 1 year ago

liamtimms commented 1 year ago

Hi I am trying to get this working with English - en-US as my language but whether I use the default or the ElevenLabs option I receive a popup saying:

Invalid settings values. TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'lang')

when attempting to save the setting.

Same problem here.

@pyjterq it was resolved for me by using Chrome itself rather than Chromium.

Hello there,

Chromium does not support voice recognition, which effectively blocks support for this extension.

I'd like to state that many users are requesting for support of OpenAI Whisper API which is basically an alternative to the browser's speech recognition API. If I implement it, then de facto support for Chromium will be possible.

A major drawback for the current version of Talk-to-ChatGPT is that it's reliant on web browser APIs for speech recognition and text-to-speech.

For text-to-speech, I've integrated ElevenLabs support. Now, if I can integrate Whipser, then we won't need anything from the browser.

Which means the extension will be browser-agnostic, possibily even opening the door for mobile usage.

I see. I'm using Brave right now. I'll try Chrome instead.
