coqui tts: change to better maintained fork #2513

Open blob42 opened 3 months ago

The coqui tts currently used has been unmaintained since some time. It seems this repo is the new maintained fork that is taking over. It is this fork that powers the RealtimeTTS library library.

It would also be great to add support for the RealtimeTTS engine. I would be glad to make a PR for both.

I think this is a great idea!

FYI: the existing extra-coqui test can be a bit flaky, and tends to need repeats sometimes. It's potentially related to being old as you say... or there may be something iffy with the code itself to keep an eye out for.

good point indeed! now that coqui is off the table pointing to a maintained version would be much wanted and better :+1:
