Allow selecting the directory where wave files are saved #16

Closed drmfinlay closed 2 years ago

drmfinlay commented 2 years ago

Selecting the directory where wave files are saved is not possible at the moment. This is a confusing limitation of the app. It was my intention from the start to include this, but I couldn't quite figure out how to bring up a UI for directory selection. I hope to add this in a future version of the app.

This feature is now available in TTS Util version 4.0.0. See the releases page. The new version will be available on the Google Play and F-Droid stores soon.

Please note that it is not possible to choose the output directory on devices running Android Kitkat or earlier. In addition, Android 11 and 12 enforce (rather draconian) restrictions on the directories accessible by applications. TTS Util will ask the user to choose a new output directory on these versions of Android.
