[APP][Pro] Google Services - App for Translate and new Text-to-Speech for any device with url input

Do you mean for translate or TTS?

And which JSONs did you edit?

I meant translate… checking it again, seems that time I took a copy of your repo, I duplicated actually 1.9.51, while I see your actually last prod. version got 1.10.2 :wink: So no need right, as you changed the method in the meantime.

Hello,

I am looking for a solution to have something said locally from Homey from a speaker. What exactly is text-to-speech (non-cloud)? Does this work locally, between Homey and the Google specker?

Well,

The TTS app lets you generate a MP3 file through a Google Service, containing speech.

That MP3 is stored on Homey and available through a URL, so you can play it on devices in your network.

The non-cloud version still uses an online service of Google, but you do not need to create a Google Cloud Account for it to work. It is very limited though, the Cloud version is way way better.

Okay Thanks :see_no_evil_monkey:

I’m not getting prompted for “Project ID” and “Service Account JSON” during the setup/when adding device and there’s no such fields in the device settings? I am adding the correct device , “Text-to-Speech”, not the “Text-to-Speech (non-cloud)”?

Thanks

Goto the app settings :wink:

Well, that’s embarrassing, I was looking at the “device” settings, completely forgot about the actual app settings which I found in the meantime. However, I’m still getting the “Did you configure the JSON and Voice in the settingspage?” error, although I copy/pasted the JSON that was downloaded from the Google Cloud and selected a voice from the dropdown (I also entered the Project ID). Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

Thanks.
