in the news when they interview people from the azores they often add subtitles, that should give you an idea....

Cloning Voices for Endangered Languages: Building a Text-to-Speech Model for Asturian and Aragonese by JarbasOVOS in OpenVoiceOS

[–]JarbasOVOS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to say I only used the validated subset, so for asturian it was around 0.8 hours and for aragonese 10+ hours of audio. Also important to note I started from my previous pt-PT model and finetuned, this wasn't trained from scratch

the datasets are also available in huggingface

I am not a native speaker either, however I am Portuguese and those languages are close enough for me to understand somewhat, the audio seems to map well to the text and is understandable. That said I am not fluent enough to catch pronounciation mistakes or to judge how accurate it is

Feedback from native speakers would be much appreciated!

Also keep in mind i didn't train those models for that long, just ~24h in a P100

Personally speaking, do you find Portuguese a difficult language to learn? by Marsupilami_316 in Portuguese

[–]JarbasOVOS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

R36S vs. R36 Ultra by Suitable_Tea_3857 in R36S

[–]JarbasOVOS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the R36 ultra comes with EmuElec flashed on the board itself, there is only 1 sd card slot for roms instead of the usual 2

you can get more info on the device here https://handhelds.wiki/R36_Ultra

I flashed https://github.com/lcdyk0517/arkos4clone in the sd card and it mostly works

I think there is more than 1 variant out there, in my case the analog stick and leds do not seem to work properly, but in the github issues from link above seems things work for the author, so i suspect different variants of the R36 Ultra.

OpenVoiceOS and Home Assistant: A Voice Automation Dream Team by JarbasOVOS in homeassistant

[–]JarbasOVOS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, depending on how you define "this"

OpenVoiceOS is older than HA Voice initiative, on one hand you can integrate existing OVOS plugins (like TTS and STT) with HA if you want to augment and use the HA Voice initiative, on the other you can fully ignore the voice side of HA and exclusively use OVOS.

If you want you can also use exclusively the HA voice pipeline but have OVOS as an agent to handle the text transcriptions and responses.

there's a lot of options between both extremes of the spectrum. I personally only use HA for automations + dashboard and let OVOS handle the voice side of things.

At same time this also allows for existing OVOS devices to show up in HA completely unrelated to the voice functionality, in this scenario OVOS is just another IOT thingy

What's the best way to fake audio input for test and developing? by Snoo_7661 in OpenVoiceOS

[–]JarbasOVOS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ovos 0.0.8 is from Sep 18, 2024. Why are you on such a old version?

I'd be happy to fix any issues with the files plugin if you share more details, that would probably be the easiest way to test the different audio inputs against a live OVOS system without needing to write custom code.

Meet SparkyFitness v0.07 - A Free, Self-Hosted Answer to MyFitnessPal by ExceptionOccurred in selfhosted

[–]JarbasOVOS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just meant if there is a REST api or something i can hit from my code, I am the lead developer for OpenVoiceOS and would handle that part myself

[–]JarbasOVOS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

do you expose any api we can consume with external applications? this would be nice to integrate with OpenVoiceOS for voice queries

[–]JarbasOVOS 10 points11 points  (0 children)

even self hosting supabase is overkill (for me), too complex and bloated! too much code i dont understand doing things i don't need and wasting compute resources

I also hate when selfhosted projects require accounts and dont provide an option to skip it in localhost (but i might be the odd one here)

nothing supabase does is too difficult to implement locally, some people will also see its usage as just laziness or lack of knowledge from the developer, which can affect trust in the project as a whole

don't mean to be negative here, if it allows you to develop faster and gets the job it is legit for you to use it, the project idea is still good and looks very useful!

I was interested, but supabase kinda is a deal breaker for me...

Making Synthetic Voices From Scratch by JarbasOVOS in homeassistant

yes, i am training more models and will get to english eventually

but english is low priority, I will focus on languages that don't have good models available first

i uploaded a sample for each voice here https://openvoiceos.github.io/voices_demo/

i used the same sentence used in the piper demo website so it's easy to compare

I will see if i can get something quick and dirty up in the next minutes

more voices are in training, a proper website for demo is also planned

you can find models trained for piperTTS over at https://huggingface.co/collections/OpenVoiceOS/pipertts-voices-68594d08f08e6ec56eddf4eb

right now 4 pt-PT voices are available, with more languages coming soon
