Hi @maglore9900
The 250 character limit is per sentence, not per entire block of text. The 250 character limit (as it mentions) is a warning, not a refusal to generate TTS. The message is generated by Coqui's tokenizer, not AllTalk.
There are articles on Coqui's forum discussing this in various ways:
https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS/discussions?discussions_q=250+character
In short, individual sentences that are over 250 characters, that cannot be split down further, may cause the AI model to start hallucinating and the quality of the audio for that individual sentence degrades, over/above the 250 characters for that individual sentence, hence the warning message.
AllTalk does enable Coqui's sentence splitting, which it will do where possible https://github.com/erew123/alltalk_tts/blob/alltalkbeta/system/tts_engines/xtts/model_engine.py#L501 This line is telling Coqui's scripts to split where possible, using the method Coqui have implemented https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS/blob/dev/TTS/tts/layers/xtts/tokenizer.py#L35.
If you wanted to change the warning message or other such settings, you would have to re-code the Coqui tokeniser in the TTS folder of the alltalk Python environment https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS/blob/dev/TTS/tts/layers/xtts/tokenizer.py#L622 stored in \alltalk_tts\alltalk_environment\env\Lib\site-packages\TTS\tts\layers\xtts
Thanks
Thank you. Love your product and I didnt expect to get a response to fast. Really appreciate the work you are putting into this.
