Hi. This thread is made to bring all text to speech related topics in one place.
Post all your TTS queries here.
my queries
Which is the best free TTS engine? and which is the best paid one?
Also which is the best ebook reader with tts support?
Is TTS very taxing on the cpu? Does it drain battery quite fast or not?
Please reply.
I have a problem with Pico TTS. If I uninstall it, on boot the home screen is unresponsive until I press the Home key or the Back key. I'm on stock ROM with franco v14.1 kernel.
The problem goes away if I reinstall Pico TTS.
How do I fix this?

Up until now my voice search results have been spoken in a male voice with a british accent. Suddenly this evening my Nexus 10 has turned into a female american. In addition, and probably more importantly, it has stopped reading back results for some queries. It will still read back the result for "How many teaspoons in 500 liters", but not "how far to alpha centauri", for example, when it always read back both before. I've changed no settings.
What had changed and how can I get my british male voice back for all results?
i'm suddenly experiencing similar craziness. it seems like google's servers are borked
Interesting, I wonder if its location dependent.
Mine has always been in the same female voice as on the nexus 7 TV commercial in the states.
Ok, the search reading or not reading results seems to be the result of how particular the search is about whether or not it returns on a card or just directs to the google results. Fine, I can live with that.
The loss of the british voice seems like it's possibly related to android issue #8463 - "Language setting ignored in google navigation" (I can't post links yet). People who have languages other than american english selected as their default text-to-speech language are still getting american english in other google apps, and have been for years.
First off I don't have an at&t s4, I have a USCC one, SCH-R970.
The problem is when I am texting or inputting text in a different application it no longer remembers phrases I've already used.
For example when people would ask me what I like doing in my free time...
I would type "music, movies, swimming, pool, darts, bowling, hiking, disc golf, badminton, long walks, running, video games, etc."
After typing that a few times to different people or in different applications in messages to people my phone would automatically predict the next word I was going to type, for example...
I used to be able to type "music" and then it would predict the next thing to be a , then movies then another , then swimming then another ,
and so on...
Lately when I try to type out the phrase "music, movies, swimming, pool, darts, bowling, hiking, disc golf, badminton, long walks, running, video games, etc."
I first type music, then the three things it predicts are comma, the word is or a period.
So since I want to say movies after the word music I will choose the comma.
The issue is that after choosing that it used to know I wanted to use the word movies next, but now it guesses "I" "and" or "but"
It is very annoying to have to keep retyping the same phrases over and over.
How do I fix this?
Like if I say to a lot of people "I woke up earlier than normal today" my phone used to know that I used that phrase a lot and would predict one word after another correctly, but it no longer does that... so I am having to type out everything word per word.
Can someone help me with this?
When I go to my device then language and input google voice typing is turned on to automatic, default is samsung keyboard, voice recognizer is google, etc.
In the samsung keyboard settings predictive text is on.
All I simply want is to be able to use a phrase over and over and for my phone to be able to know what word I'm going to use next like it used to be able to.
So I was able to type the word music then it would predict the next thing to be a comma then all I'd have to do is click the comma then click the word movies then click the comma again then click the word swimming then another comma and so on. That way I had a list of things I liked doing in my free time simply by clicking my finger in the same area a few times because I had typed the same thing out manually a lot.
My phone doesn't do that lately and it annoys me. Certainly there is a setting somewhere?
Bump
Anyone want to help me?
Never mind I fixed it.
Solution:
I went to settings>my device>language and input>samsung keyboard settings>handwriting>then changed the recognition type from stroke to complete.
I think that's the solution anyways. Not 100% sure as I reset the settings for the samsung keyboard and started from scratch then went into the predictive text setting and had it learn from contacts and also had it learn from messaging.
But now I can say stuff like "I like music" then it will predict the next then to be a "," then the next word to be "swimming" and so on.
This is what I wanted it to do and I'm not sure why it stopped doing it, but it's working again!
For 1 whole year I regularly contacted Swiftkey by email and their facebook page and asked to fix this and they never fixed it, the biggest issue/bug is, Swiftkey is taking COPIED text as TYPED text. It should take typed words only (this is big reason behind inaccurate/unneeded word prediction). Could you do something about it?
Below is the email i wrote to Swiftkey and they never implemented or fixed these in their recent versions.
:
Improvement idea #1:
This is the big reason behind incorrect/inaccurate word prediction.
I was a die hard fan of Swiftkey until I realized that Swiftkey is taking COPIED text as TYPED Text resulting in unwanted prediction of words we already removed by selecting 'Do not predict xxxx'. STOP THIS PLZ
I checked this twice thrice and informing you. The problem is: Saving the words what we type is good but BAD/WORST part is, it also saves the words when you just copy text from other sources for example: Copying random text or paragraph from webpages, Ebooks and Documents. Those text are NOT TYPED by the user and those words GET COPIED to internal dictionary of Swiftkey which I don't like to be predicted while I type. I copy some text/paragraphs from webpages to read it later but it doesn't mean that I like all the words from that copied text/paragraphs and would not want those words predicted--as it can contain whatever words which i never typed and just copied it and while typing those words come across as prediction.
You can Experiment yourself.
1. Just copy the below words in a new note and save it. (do this on your android mobile not on PC) I would never use the below words ever.
2. Now, Suppose, you do not want the word 'Chateau' never ever to appear or predicted.
3. Open another new note and try to type 'chateau', you'll see 'chateau' appears in prediction bar. Long press the word 'Chateau', a message pop out saying 'Do not predict 'chateau' again.', hit 'OK.
4. Now, open the first note with all the below words saved and copy word 'Chateau' and see it will stupidly gets added to the dictionary of Swiftkey and you'll see them come across while you type.
Did you just observed ? You copied the word, you could have copied 2-3 paragraphs from the webpage which could contain more or few words which you never wish to type/use. it should not be added by Swiftkey.---this is exactly what is happening and it is leading to worst word predictions. Yes, if you rather type the entire word 'Chateau' then it should predict. Got my point ?

Improvement idea # 2:
I use Swiftkey's compact mode only to type and it is good in portrait mode. But in landscape mode, the other half screen is occupied with the empty space of keyboard. (Please check the attached picture).
Improvement idea # 3:
Sync from Whatsapp needed as many guys use whatsapp than facebook these days.
Improvement idea # 4:
Want to view dictionary words in each language and want to remove the words i never use.
Improvement idea # 5:
Shortcuts for cut, copy, paste like swype keyboard please.
Improvement idea # 6:
'Choose input method' notification bugging.
Improvement idea # 7:
Provide option to set flow trials color and width.
Could anyone fix atleast the idea #1 ? Swiftkey team is waste they give irrelevant replies to our emails, they never carefully read what user is saying.
Thank you,
Athar
Done
Good post
What options need shut off to reduce memory usage.... Maybe add a few other check boxes with notes about memory savings

I thing I manage to disable the method that executes learning from text copy. Try it and let me know how it works.

I LOVE IT. Thank you very much for this mod. It's working 99% the 1% which is lacking is: It pridicts the word 'zyban' from the below list of unwanted words and that word force remains added when i delete it.
chatman
chateau
Chatham
zuzana
zyban
May be the word is the last one so remains force added?

I can easy add logging for you to watch what and when was blocked from learning in that particular method. The logcat message is displayed as array of all copied words. That way you can see if something else is not blocked as well. Just let me know...

I would love to let you know but i can't read those catlog or logfiles. I'm a noob and very far from being a dev. I tried to delete that word Zyban like 10 times, it is still there. Are you too facing the same?

I haven't played with it much so I can't answer your question. All I know is that pasted words are no longer added to swiftkey learned words.

With this Solution came in a new problem that is the words are not being deleted.
I've attached the screenshot of the words which i want to delete.
I'm working on a project that include 2 main threads.
1th thread is the phone call. 2nd thread is text to speech in realtime from phone call.
It works properly on Lenovo K3 Note but when I run the code on Samsung it pauses the 2nd thread, when I cancel the call the 2nd thread continues.
