Google translate https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Google_voice has changed resulting error 503 when using script from Wiki. Browser shows a captcha dialogue now.
To get it working again, a string "&ie=UTF-8&total=1&idx=0&client=t" must be added to the script.
My current script for speaking Domoticz is now:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
say() { local IFS=+;/usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa -really-quiet -noconsolecontrols "http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=fi&q=$*&ie=UTF-8&total=1&idx=0&client=t"; }
say $*

There may be other (better?) ways to fix this issue but this was the first I found.

Too bad...it does not work for me:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~/btaudio $ wget "http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=nl&q=test&ie=UTF-8&total=1&idx=0&client=t"

If you try your string (from same network as your Domoticz) http://translate.google.com/translate_t ... 0&client=t in browser, do you get it spoken and without captcha?
My error was 503, not 403. Without the added part, do you get 503?

Yes I do, I seem to have another issue. I am able to download files from the internet on my Pi. Internet access seems ok

It might be that with WGET you need to fake some HTTP headers if possible. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9893 ... speech-api.

Thnx, the following produces a valid mp3 file

Code: Select all

curl 'http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?ie=UTF-8&q=Hello&tl=en&client=t' -H 'Referer: http://translate.google.com/' -H 'User-Agent: stagefright/1.2 (Linux;Android 5.0)' > google_tts.mp3

I added this information to the google_voice wiki page

Thanks, your solution works great

is there someone who can create a working google_voice.sh file and a sample script_device_switch.lua?

i have sound working on my rpi (can play a mp3 file with mplayer) but google.translate produces no sound even when the script is triggered.
So i think my google_voice.sh and script_device_switch isnt correct.

Could not get it working with google text to speech because google blocks my ip after one request.
So I had to find another solution. Now it works with the voicerss api.

I created a wiki page how I did it: http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Rss_voice

Indeed Google blocks, thats why you can use:

Btw, Amazon its tts sounds better than googles. You need a free developers license though. I am using that one

And what code do you use the bash file ?

What happend on command line (no script) if you produce the mp3 file and step 2 play it with mplayer?

it works for a few requests. But after a while i get this error.

Google voice controls the number of call per IP. So if you have a dynamic IP, and are not lucky, you may be banned.
If so, use VoiceRSS. I have updated the wiki with a VoiceRSS howto, look here : https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Talking_Domoticz
