So this looks like a high quality, fast, natural, and open source TTS system in Python. A key candidate for an . Unfortunately, I find addon development super confusing. Is there a good template to start from or something? github.com/thewh1teagle/kokoro-onnx

Yeah, I am deeply confused about how buffers work and how to indicate when speaking is complete and do indexing and so-on. If this is going to be an addon, someone else will have to do it.

@fastfinge You need support from the synth for some features. This one doesn't have anything. Once it starts speaking, it blocks until it's done, so you can't interrupt it.

@tspivey Wouldn't you just stop playing the samples it gave you?

@fastfinge That works. But you're still sitting there waiting a few seconds for it to finish generating them.

@fastfinge Taking this sentence and passing it straight through, it pauses after highly. That's not even that many words. He had quietly gone to Madame Pomfrey, who had regretfully told him that Dreamless Sleep was highly addicting and that while she could give him the occasional dose, it would have to be spread out enough to prevent it from becoming addicting – meaning he could only take it one night out of every two weeks or so.

@tspivey Hmmm, I assumed that was just because I was passing an enormous text block with multiple sentences. Hadn't tested with single sentences yet.
