Hi @winman3000 , thanks for sharing. I can take a closer to check if i can help. Do you know Mimic 3 which offers several local TTS voices for multiple languages including mine ;).
Hi Thorsten,
I have not heard or read anything about Mimic yet. I will have a look at it.
I am fully blind and would like to use RHVoice with my screen reader NVDA. There is already a driver from RHVoice for NVDA. Since it is very fast in response time, very small, and hardly needs any big dependencies like Java, RHVoice is more likely for me.
So I would be very happy if you could somehow manage to import your voice there.
Hi @winman3000, okay i understand. I will take a closer to look to it but i cannot say when i will find the time to do so. I have read, that Mimic 3 should support screeen readers too, but it is written as "work in progress" so might not work optimal.
I post a link, just in case you want to check it. https://mycroft-ai.gitbook.io/docs/mycroft-technologies/mimic-tts/mimic-3#speech-dispatcher
Hi Thorsten,
Thank you very much for taking care of this problem. I would be very happy if you manage to port it. RHVoice is very fast in response and as I said very small.
Thanks also for the link. Speech-Dispatcher is for Linux. On Windows it is either done via SAPI or a direct driver is written for the respective screen reader like NVDA, JAWS or Supernova.
Hi @thorstenMueller, have you already found time to take a closer look into it? I would also love to see your voice in RHVoice.
Hi, to be honest, i haven't found time for it yet, because it's also a topic for which i need some time. But I have it on my todo list. Wishing you a good start into to the year 2023.
@BluePixel4k I've commented in the issue on RHVoice for getting help with the first steps. Let's see if i can be helpful in this topic.
there is a project called RHVoice (https://github.com/RHVoice/RHVoice/). It would be very nice if your voices could be ported there, so that RHVoice is finally available in German. Unfortunately I don't have the necessary knowledge for this
There is already an issue for this: https://github.com/RHVoice/RHVoice/issues/24
