> Removing PulseAudio..continuing the shift to PipeWire

My #GoPiGo3 robot just shuddered in fear of becoming deaf and mute.

Working on #adacompliance by trying to integrate a #texttospeech engine into #AOSP

#espeak has been deemed too low quality, and #sherpaTTS too slow. #RHVoice silently fails on our hardware, and I'm running out of options. Does @GrapheneOS have a TTS engine that would be commercially friendly enough for us to push it via OTA update? Or would anyone recommend one?

We work with a sensitive population and lack of a screen reader can make things even more difficult for some.

Important note for #blind users!
#CRDroid doesn't contain #gapps, there's no Talk Back available.
You have to download it manually and put it to your phone via recovery.
Also you'll need a TTS engine and this is kinda problem because I know no TTS which work out of the box without prior network access.
#Espeak needs internet to download language data on first launch;
#RHVoice needs internet for every new voice;
#Vocalizer is paid and needs the same;

The only option at least for Russian people is to download #FonTTS (modern implementation of #NewFon) and use it.
If you know totally offline TTS synthesizers for other languages, please share.

Also even if you put Talk Back and TTS via recovery they won't start via volume buttons.
You have to enable usb debugging via recovery and then, on welcome screen, via adb, enable Talk Back and set default TTS for speech output.

After that you're good to go as an usual user.

Olyan boldog vagyok, hogy #Magyar #RHVoice tényleg fog sikerülni!
Még van néhány probléma, mert magyar nyelv tényleg nehéz; de már van pár hang forrás adatbázistől és már vannak emberek, akik akarnak felvenni több jó adatbázist az RHVoice szintetizátornak.

Sok éve csak nagyon mű #espeak volt, meg régi #profivox, meg olyan furcsa és rossz #Vocalizer Mariska.
És most majd tudunk adni az új jobb hangot a magyarnyelvű látássérült embereknek.

Igazából egy kicsit furcsa nekem, hogy mi nem vagyunk magyarok és készítjuk ezt a szintetizátort.
De a barátnőm magyar, és ő mindig segít nekünk ha nem értünk valamit vagy ha tényleg kell az információk a magyarnyelvű embertől.

Szóval, várjátok, magyarok és majd lesz publikusan az új magyar beszédszintetizátor.

If you have to do Speech-to-Text and Text-to-Speech tasks and don't want to send your data to the Internet, I recommend you to try Speech Note (Linux desktop app).

It is easy to use, works offline and supports 57 languages!

Speech Note works thanks to powerful #STT and #TTS engines underneath: #DeepSpeech #Coqui #Vosk #Whisper #Piper #eSpeak #MBROLA #RHVoice

You can download #SpeechNote from #Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/net.mkiol.SpeechNote

@openmastering This track was released after 1 year of pain and multiples surgeries. The end of a cycle and the start of a new life.

I was trying to make people understand the hardships I've been through. An outlet !

#Linux with #Ardour, #Guitarix (#pacifica), some hardware synths (#d50, #microbrute and a #wavestation) and some samples (#drumtraks, #espeak for the vocal synthesis and samples from #freesound.org). I like the eighties sound 😜
