Get NVDA working with the piper-tts addon #3

Open lsterckx opened 4 months ago

Hi, I've installed teh addon on the 2023 2 version of NVDA. When starrting NVDA I get the remark/question 'No voices found'.. When I go to the settings menu I have to select a voice archive file. However on the site of piper-tts I can only dowload the onnx and the onnx.json files. These are not accepted by the 'select voice from file' function in the settings/piper dialog. Could you guide me through this process? I'm curious about how to get the piper-tts working on Windows environment. I've done some tests with python and running an external echo command and pipe the output to piper.exe. This works but is somwhat too slow. I'm a blind developer and working on an application for blind people that can automatically read text appearing in video streams. Thanks for sharing the way to get this working faster.
