Firefox Plugin for using GPT-SoVITS as a screen reader

Fully local and self contained: the ONLY network traffic is to the single API endpoint that you define

You can add this plugin by one of:

• using the signed xpi file provided
• zipping all the files and renaming the archive from .zip to .xpi (you could set up an account at https://addons.mozilla.org and sign your own if you want to eliminate errors)
• putting about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox in your address bar, using "Load Temporary Addon..." and pointing it at the manifest file

Change the plugin preferences to something like https://tts.yourdomain.com/api_v2 or whatever your actual domain is and make sure you have your sovits api_v2.py api running on that url.

If you want some of the API introspection quality-of-life improvements (listbox of available voice samples, etc) use my patched api_v2.py at https://github.com/cpumaxx/GPT-SoVITS/blob/main/api_v2.py

You may need to use the -c parameter to point to a custon YAML file that defines things like your preferred ckpt and pth files.

You need at least one character+emotion defined to use this plugin.

You will need to put any sound samples you want to use on your SoVITS server, in the same folder as the api_v2.py script.

Be very careful to use a high-quality voice samples between 3-10 seconds and set the "Prompt Text" to precisely what is being said in the sample.

You can set up SoVITS and get the required files from these resources:

Manual deployment for the privacy and security sensitive

• Clone the project with git clone https://github.com/cpumaxx/sovits-ff-plugin
• Change the manifest.js from <all_urls> to your API endpoint and change the ID (you can't re-use them since they will be rejected my Mozilla signing)
• zip up the manifest, all the js/html/css/svg files and change the extension from zip to xpi
• Sign the xpi file at https://addons.mozilla.org (you will need to create an account). Use the self-host option.
• Go to "Extensions" in your Firefox, click on the gear, icon and "Install add-on from file"
