Found Potential Bug?

[MacMonkey93]

EDDI does not display any icon in sound setting nor sound mixer and does not play sound at all.

Expected

I expected for the app to play sound when used.

Observed

When i pressed the Test voice button under the "Text-to-Speech" Tab so see if I could hear it respond to me nothing plays.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open app, Go to "Text-to-Speech" tab click on Test voice and hear if it responds. Look in sound mixer and sound setting for the EDDI App
2. Test to see if EDDI appears in the sound settings and test if it responds.

Configuration

• Version
  • EDDI Version: v.4.0.2
  • VoiceAttack Version: Voice Attack not used
• Localization
  • EDDI's language: English
  • Voice: Microsoft George in English.

My Investigation:

I have uninstalled EDDI twice, Had removed voice attack to eliminate that causing issues. Made sure every check mark was set for the app to work correctly,

Investigation Notes:

I was running the old version v.4.0.1 and the same issues applied as v.4.0.2.

Did you look for log files? They'd be at %APPDATA%/EDDI on your computer and suffixed with a .log extension.

If EDDI doesn't generate any .log files then it is either failing very quickly after it starts (in which case the UI probably wouldn't appear at all) or there may be a file permission issue preventing it from writing to the folder location discussed above.

[MacMonkey93]

Do you want all of the log files?

[Tkael]

You are free to provide just what you think might be useful. I probably won't need more than the most recent couple but it won't be a problem if you wish to send more.

Please attach them to this ticket in a .zip folder.

I will just send all the log files as im not exactly sure which ones to send. EDDI Logs.zip

This appears to be the primary problem:

As you appear to be using Windows 10 (same as I am), I would suggest the following: 1) Check for windows installation / corruption issues as described here. 2) Reinstall EDDI. 3) Report back to let me know if the issue is still present?

Additionally: You seem to be using the Name (spoken) field in the Commander Details tab improperly as MacMonkey93 is not a valid IPA code that can be converted into a phonetic pronunciation of your commander name. Try using this instead: mækˈmʌŋkiˈnaɪntiˈθɹi.

This is from the windows ten fix and nothing is wrong with that so i guess il try another reinstall.

[Tkael]

Are you perhaps using audio drivers which differ from the Windows default?

[MacMonkey93]

Yeah im using Realtek audio drivers

[Tkael]

In that case you might try reinstalling / updating your audio drivers.

[MacMonkey93]

Alright il try reinstalling my audio drivers

[MacMonkey93]

my audio drivers are upto date and theres nothing wrong with them sooo what now?

[Tkael]

I'll try adding a fallback in the next release but this seems like it may be more of a Windows (and perhaps registry) issue than an EDDI issue. I'm not sure there's very much else that I can do.
