Errors When Integrating Piper TTS with Silero in SillyTavern

[KohbehckliTeppay]

Description: I am trying to start the Piper TTS module with the provided instructions, but I've encountered some issues getting to the place where the voices can be accessed.

Steps Followed:

• Modified config.yaml to enable server plugins.
• Unzipped SillyTavern-Piper-TTS in the plugins folder.
• Ran npm install within the plugin folder.
• Executed start.bat from the root directory.

Issue: The Silero TTS tab only displays Silero voices and gives an error: "TTS Provider not ready. SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON."

Environment:

• OS: Windows
• Browser: Chrome

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Can you check the models folder, you need to download the models from the github of pipertts because I don't pay for github and there is a very low limit on file download. Can you provite Sillytavern logs ? The plugin is only an API that runs pipertts and I used the tab Silero because I didn't want to create a new tab for piper tts
