Hey! Tried this and it worked, but I can't disable it unless I'm using only Soft Voice, because I'm always, and will be ever turning auto language switching on, since I need it as I use English in conjunction with Arabic, so both should be working at the same time. I could, however, enjoy Soft Voice by disabling the thing. Thanks a lot guys, I really didn't think I have to turn it off, but my question is: Why do I have to do so? Why doesn't it read when auto detect is on? Just wandering, big_smile
Edit: I just discovered that I've re-installed the old version, the new one works without changing that setting

I added an inflection slider to the softvoice nvda addon.

Jake, are you ever going to fix that mislabeling in the voices? Large mail and mellow mail are kinda... Screwed?

That is do to the softvoice engine itself. The version of softvoice that the addon uses is from talk it. On youtube, I saw a vidio of talk it, and large male and mellow male were not talking the way they should be.

I reuploaded the softvoice addon. I added a volume slider. Softvoice doesn't have a native volume controll in its api. However, it has controll over voicing, frication, and aspiration gain. The volume slider controlls all 3 of these at once. Edit: I figured out how to add sliders for voice settings. Voicing, frication, and aspiration gain are now separate sliders. I also added vowel factor and perturbation control.

2015-12-06 17:33:05

is there a manual that doesn't just give me all the commands, but gives me a description of them? They are a bit... Vague.

hey, you should add a slider in the voice settings thing for all the atributes like NV speechplayer. And combo box for voicing type, glot, etc.

Softvoice doesn't have all of the voice parameters in its api. I know it has F0Style, Glot, Gender, and VoicingMode, but I don't know how to add combo boxes in python.

2015-12-06 21:09:58

do you have a comprehensive command list that actually tells me what they do?

The softvoice doesn't work at all. As soon as I select it, it says "could not load the sv synthesiser", then crashes NVDA.

That is strange. By the way, I just switched from the talk it! soft voice to the sv from pw webspeak. It fixed the voice labling, but the speech cuts off.

Hey Jake, can you send the old link to the softvoice TalkIt! TTS, because the voice cutts up. A separate version, so you can have 2 versions at the same time.

2015-12-07 04:37:11

Jake, and the Soft voice TALKIT! NVDA Addon? do you have it or you want to do this again?

73 Wj3u

2015-12-07 06:49:01

You can get the addon with the talk it! soft voice from Jef's sight.

2015-12-07 15:14:16

OK, and if you can add the sòt voice Talk IT! NVDA addon, just rename the addon Softvoice as Softvoice_talkit, and if possible can you add the same parameters as the softvoice pwwebspeak? And if it is possible can you add separate versions? Like soft voice Talk IT! and or Softvoice PWWebspeak? If it is possible you will combine into a single NVDA  Addon.

I switched back to the talk it! soft voice because I couldn't find a way to fix the cutting problum. I also added sliders for intonation stile, voicing mode, gender, glottal source, and speaking mode. The reason I am doing sliders for these is because I don't know how to code combo boxes.

2015-12-08 02:07:49

thanks. are you going to do the multi eloquence addon or make addons of the older versions of eloquence?
