Sorry I don't understand how to use this library. Does it have a Ready (Success as Boolean) event to know if the engine is ready? Can you post an example from initialise to the speak command?

Hi Inman download again the library.

This is the way to use it before I made a mistake but anyway inside is also the demo

Sub Button1_Click

tts.Speaking(a)

tts.PlaySilence(1000)

tts.AddSpeaking(b)

tts.PlaySilence(3000)

tts.AddSpeaking(a)

End Sub

***********************************************************

Sub tts_Ready (Success As Boolean)

If Success Then

ToastMessageShow("TTS is Ready",True)

Else

ToastMessageShow("TTS is not Ready",True)

End If

End Sub


best regards

Thank you. While the engine is talking now, I can't change the engine with SetEngineByPackageName. Whichever package I set, when I call GetEngineByPackageName it still returns the default engine I set in the Settings. Can you check?

EDIT:

It works. You need to set it in the tts_Ready event. Also for some reason GetEngineByPackageName always returns the name of the default engine.

Hi Inman, You should first install other packages and then set it.

Try to instal IVONA tts from market is the best one.

Everything is working fine now.

Could you please add the isSpeaking() method too? I want to show a notification when the app is speaking and clear the notification when it is done speaking.

this adds a ridiculous amount of permissions. Can you make a version without the SMS/android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION_EXTRA_COMMANDS/jp.co.c_lis.permission.CHANGE_LOCALE stuff?

my users wont accept this.

How to choose a real-time voice?
For example.
TTS locale (Settings> Language and input> Text-to-speech output> Settings button> Language)

I'm having some trouble. Sometimes it'll speak, other times it won't and won't give me an error message.

How can you tell if it is speaking or not? What is the name of the boolean property? I am using version 1.60
