Is it possible to save the audio for later?

I want to convert text to audio and save it in markdown file for later. Is it possible?

@mjreddy1205, that sounds like a useful feature to export an audio. Unfortunately its not currently possible, unless you want to export single sentences. Each sentence is currently cached temporarily in a hidden .tts folder in your obsidian vault, so you could move those files and rename them if you can find the correct audio files

There's another obsidian plugin that, from my understanding, might fit your use case for "bulk export" of audio. It uses a different audio provider (Eleven Labs), but they have very high quality voices too: https://github.com/veritas1/eleven-labs-obsidian-plugin

Hi Adrian, Thanks for your reply. I was using eleven labs, but it was quite expensive. Then I stumbled upon your plugin, which is of course amazing. I am no developer myself, but I saw in the openai that output file can be generated. Thus, I was curious. [image: image.png] Thanks, Regards, Reddy

I also think that it is possible to export audio and directly convert the audio to acc format.

One is to save costs, and the other is that it can still be used when the network is not in good condition. My idea is to store the audio to a specific file, I observed that you have synchronization issues, you can affect the upload and download speed by excluding the stored file.
