Hello, thank you very much for the new awesome fantastic wonderful media player :) 💯 🥇

Please i have request : we can download anime in Japanese from streaming sites which have 700 episodes which can be tiring to read the subtitles and we can find the subtitles easily so we hope for the addition of a speech synthesizer to "experience video in a whole new way with "Speech Synthesizer" feature into streaming videos subtitles, reading them aloud through a sophisticated speech synthesizer that closely mimics the human voice. Choose from acclaimed voices like Ivona or the built-in Windows narrator voices such as Microsoft Paulina, Julie, Zira, or Adam (standard in Windows 11).

This feature is perfect for those who prefer listen audio of pdf books and prefer listening over reading, or for visually impaired viewers, adding an extra dimension to your video-watching experience to enjoy videos in a way that suits us best, only with Mpv.net :) "

and also please if possible add "Revolutionary AI-Powered Voice-Over Feature" :

Add an innovative AI-powered voice-over feature, changing the way viewers experience videos. Utilizing advanced artificial intelligence technology for voice generation, the AI Voice-over provides a unique experience comparable to a real human narrator to enjoy videos without the need to read subtitles while still listening to the authentic voices of actors.

AI Voice-over is for those who dislike movie dubbing that destroys the true voice and authenticity of actors. For visually impaired individuals who have difficulty reading subtitles. For those who like to play movies in the background while doing other tasks and don't want to focus on reading subtitles. Perfect for lovers of original soundtracks who also seek support in understanding dialogues. This function, developed by ElevenLabs.io - a world leader in this field, we hope it will be available to all Mpv.net users to offer the innovative AI Voice-over technology enriches the film experience, combining the comfort of listening with the authenticity of the original performance." !

Thank you so much :)

I work only on very basic and common features, for everything else user scripts have to be developed and installed, this unfortunately is not always easy. Here are some helpful links:
