Thread: Loquendo 7 International TTS Pro Voices for iGO Primo Android

And the voice posted is an ordinary one.
But in uploaded Romanian TTS folder you have Mihai and Ioana TTS voice.
I have Romania TTS with that folder, but only when I copied into INTERNAL.

so you say that for you Romanian tts voice works only from internal memory? (what path?) . i have mihai and ioana in the same folder as other tts voices (that work) : /sdcard/loquendotts

solved the problem , i was missing the folder "TTS Romanian" in Sygic\Res\voices

Request for Indonesia TTS

TTS Dutch voice works sort of... When it says a street name, it says vertical stripe percentage hashtag and stuff like that.
It is really annoying, someone knows a quick fix for this or is more information required?

First of all, thank you very much for this "readable" post specific about Loquendo TTS. I've searched everywhere and I couldn't find a solution or even an explanation to this problem.

Loquendo TTS is working (downloaded from your posts) and iGo Primo is working. The problem occurs when I chose one language for the Android System and another language for iGo Voice.

For example, I am trying to keep my phone using English as default language and having iGo Primo to play TTS in Brazilian Portuguese. It won't work at all. The voice selected within iGo will be played with whatever language is set for Android system. Here's what I do:

1) Select Android System language as English
2) Select a Brazilian Portuguese for Loquendo TTS engine
3) Open iGO primo and select a Brazilian Portuguese Voice

For some reason, iGo primo will ALWAYS pick Android System language (English) and ignore whatever I set for Loquendo Engine language or even the language I set inside iGo itself.

I know that both iGo Voices and Loquendo are flowing around for quite a few years and there are some different versions. I even tried editing the iGo Voice file I have and modifying the info.ini file inside of it, but no luck. Inside this info.ini file, here's what I tried:

tts_engine="loquendo" <--- if I set this, iGo will show a VoiceLoad Failure message and restart
tts_engine="android" <--- if I set this, iGo loads fine, but this Brazilian Portuguese voice will be used using English engine instead (with that funny and unrecognizable accent)
tts_langname="PortugueseBr"
tts_langname_loq7="PortugueseBr"
tts_voicename="Gabriela"
tts_voicename_loq7="Gabriela"

* Maybe these parameters (ie. tts_voicename_loq7, tts_langname_loq7) are obsolete and no longer used ????

Another thing, I set this to global.ttsconf inside LoquendoTTS folder:

<diagnostics>
<log level="true" filename="/mnt/sdcard2/LoquendoTTS/log.txt" encoding="utf8"/>
<trace level="true" filename="/mnt/sdcard2/LoquendoTTS/trace.txt" encoding="utf8"/>
</diagnostics>

This will create a trace.txt file with debug information. It says what when iGo Primo loads up, Loquendo loads PortugueseBr voice when loading, but when TTS is to be used, this language is switched to EnglishUs

To cut it short, I think this is what happens:

Android System Language: English <<-- This is used by iGo to set Loquendo's language engine
Loquendo TTS Language: PortugueseBr Gabriela <<-- This is ignored by iGo apk
iGo Voice Language: TTS Gabriela PortugueseBr <<-- This is used for pronunciation only

Any help would be appreciated.

No matter what I do, I can not see the Romanian Voice in Igo, so I can not choose it. I have set my phone input voice to Romanian. I have deinstaled it, erased, one more time all done, the same result. Have you any idea ?

Thanks,
Ovi

Hi,

I confirm 100% what MrCabna says. only diferrence is that instead of Brazilian Portuguese I want to use my Greek voices

1) Select Android System language as English
2) Select a Greek for Loquendo TTS engine
3) Open iGO primo and select a Greek Voice

For some reason, iGo primo will ALWAYS pick Android System language (English) and ignore whatever I set for Loquendo Engine language or even the language I set inside iGo itself.

Any solution please ?

Regards,
