The goal is to let domoticz talk with a good audible voice.
Google TTS is not working because it blocks with more then one request. So i found
http://http://www.voicerss.org created an account for free and you get an API key.
But until now it is not working. Somebody an idee to let this work?
Here are my scripts.
script: script_device_Keuken.lua in /domoticz/scripts/lua/
local Keuken = 'Talk - Test'
commandArray = {}
if (devicechanged["Keuken"] == 'On') then
os.execute("/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/voice_rss.sh Dit is een test")
commandArray["Keuken"]='Off'
end
return commandArray
script: voice_rss.sh in /domoticz/scripts/
#!/bin/bash
say() { local IFS=+;/usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa -really-quiet -noconsolecontrols "
http://api.voicerss.org/?key=youreapikey&hl=nl-nl&src=$*"; }
say $*

I am using voicerss as well and it is working here. I use the following url.
Code: Select all
https://api.voicerss.org/?key<key>&c=mp3&f=16khz_8bit_mono&hl=nl-nl&r=0&src=<message>
I am using it in a script which had issues when there are spaces between the words in the message, so I replaced those with %20.

Hello, I am over to VoicerRSS too, for the .mp3ees id did not cached already.
See code. Notice also the espeak alternative. I log every tts link, maybe it can be downloaded to cache manually later.
Quality is not as good as with Google, it sounds like someone speaking in a closet, and low bps, but good enuogh.
P.S. Also i use locking mechanism to avoid mutliple voices at the same time.
