Talk:RPi Text to Speech (Speech Synthesis)
I think adding instructions to update is redundant, we should not put them on all pages about installing software --Eix (talk) 21:19, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
Re: Installing supporting software
I am told that alsa-utils is already up to date. However, looking at /etc/modules, the only non-comment line is
snd-bcm2835
while this page says I should add (underscore instead of dash)
snd_bcm2835
Should I have both? Audio works so far, at least from terminal... - Suchenwi (talk) 16:56, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Fix for Google Text to Speech | 0 | 10:23, 1 July 2016 |
Festival and Espeak work, but the shell script for Google Text to Speech thinks for a minute and then comes back with the prompt. This was fixed with the solution offered at http://stackoverflow.com/a/32053452/447830
Add the qualifier '&client=tw-ob' to the end of your query. https://translate.google.com/translate_tts?ie=UTF-8&q=test&tl=zh-TW&client=tw-ob This answer no longer works consistently. Your ip address will be blocked by google temporarily if you abuse this too much.
Others point out that it does not matter what value is assigned to client, claiming client=whateva would work. This was not my experience. tw-ob worked, whateva did not.
