Error when tried to use with coqui TTS

[drishyakarki]

I cloned the suno-bark from huggingface and followed the docs, when i try to clone voice it gives the following error

the code is

from TTS.tts.configs.bark_config import BarkConfig
from TTS.tts.models.bark import Bark
from scipy.io.wavfile import write as write_wav

config = BarkConfig()
model = Bark.init_from_config(config)
model.load_checkpoint(config, checkpoint_dir="bark/", eval=True)
model.to("cuda")

text = "Hi this is me Barack Obama"

output_dict = model.synthesize(
    text,
    config,
    speaker_id="speaker",
    voice_dirs="bark_voices",
    temperature=0.95
)

write_wav("output.wav", 24000, output_dict["wav"])

the error is

Hi, so it was a simple mistake! I didn't have git lfs installed!

[ShanthiniMichael]

Didn't work for me. Any other solution? Thanks in advance.

[drishyakarki]

what is the error you got?

[ShanthiniMichael]

The following error,

I am trying to clone again after installing git-lfs. But it is not downloading, it is almost 1 hour, but still not cloning the project.

[drishyakarki]

First remove the before-cloned folders, then try executing the command. Sometimes, if the download stucked, cancelling it and re-running the command helped.

Thank you worked :).
