Not all installed voices can be used? #868

Open PeterOeClausen opened 6 years ago

PeterOeClausen commented 6 years ago

"Microsoft Helle", a Danish text-to-speech voice, is installed on my Windows PC among others. I have the English, Danish and Spanish language packs installed on my PC (including text-to-speak and speech recognition), but only few voice options shows up with the call "GetInstalledVoices()", namely: Microsoft David Desktop Microsoft Hazel Desktop Microsoft Zira Desktop Microsoft Helena Desktop

David, Hazel and Zira are English voices, while Helena is a Spanish voice. However "Microsoft Helle" shows up in my settings, but not when calling GetInstalledVoices(). Could you please provide an overview of which voices are available? Why can't I choose to use "Microsoft Helle" as my text to speech voice? Best, Peter.
