Wow. This afternoon I got NVAccess' blessing to relicense TGSpeechBox. That means the SAPI5 project is moving into the repo tonight, as well as the future iOS and Android integration may be on the roadmap.

@Tamasg Congratulations, I'm so happy for you

@Tamasg Thank you @NVAccess #screenReader

@Tamasg That is great! By the way, did you receive my yesterday's message here about implementing events for starting and stopping speech in NV Speech Player to support automatic language switching driver? I ask because I don't know if the way how I mention people in new posts works. I simply write their handles through user autocomplition in FastSM and write my post.
@Sevapopov ah yeah, just have zero idea what that means or requires. I don't know much about that add-on, have never used it.

@Sevapopov if you can link to the add-on itself though I can take a look and see what can be done.

@Tamasg This is amazing. I bet you feel really proud of yourself. What did you mean about IOS and android and sapi5 intigration? Are you planning on making ports of the synth to these services?

@Jmd2000 Sapi5 technically has existed, although more underground and not connected to the main repo, so it can now move to be an official one, whilst iOS and Android would need building but could link against Espeak a lot more easily with this change so it becomes possible.

@Tamasg Congrats!

@kaveinthran @Tamasg You are most welcome! And we are glad to see the project getting some love. Do please keep us informed of progress (and also - as you noted previously, we linked to your fork on the Extra Voices pages: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/wiki/ExtraVoices#tgeczy-nv-speech-player-fork - I'm happy to expand the information there if you let us know as and when you'd like to add anything more there (or you may be able to submit changes yourself, I can't recall exactly who has access).

@Tamasg Here is the link to an add-on:

As an example of the synthesizer that works with this driver can be Bestspeech:
