@liw even with an llm, although it can write code for you... you have to be very explicit and detailed when you tell it what you want it to write for you. and you should have some basic programming knowlege, it helps when vibe coding. Also, vibe coding is good for some things, and not good for others. It made me a speak window and say terminal, but it's not too good at making sapi5 interfaces for old tts dlls. It is great with python, including wxpython for accessibility.

@rommix0 sounds like a classic 80s song.

@rommix0 @Tamasg @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 I wonder if it would have been easier to have had chatgpt modify your speak-window source code to add the other bestSpeech dlls, instead of having it make a speak-window from scratch with python? on the other hand, mine has lots more features so I guess it is unique and different.

@rommix0 @Tamasg @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 ok seems all fixed now. link is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SDqEXb44df1XhSjJAmK1lcD7OZefuH_4/view?usp=sharing

@rommix0 @Tamasg @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 looks like for some reason the speak window loads the english dll, but won't load the other language dll files for some reason.

@rommix0 @Tamasg @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 ok everyone, thanks to me, we now have stand-alone execuatbles that you can run without needing a python development environment to be installed. compiled binaries now in their own folders in this zip file along with the source and everything else. you may get an error when closing the speak window, hit enter it goes away, does not seem to affect its operation though. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SDqEXb44df1XhSjJAmK1lcD7OZefuH_4/view?usp=sharing

@rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @Tamasg @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 gain is volume so it seems. So I set the gain to 16 and it is much louder. gain of 20 is too high, makes voice clip and pop.

@rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @Tamasg @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 only thing my speak window can't do is make the tts speak louder, change the volume. but rommix0's speak window does this, mine does not. I don't know the command for it.

@rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @Tamasg @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 now if this could be compiled into an executable so people don't need to install python and all the stuff... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SDqEXb44df1XhSjJAmK1lcD7OZefuH_4/view?usp=sharing
