The Chinese (Cantonese) voice is broken #10418
Comments
Would you be able to see if the sapi 5 version of espeak has the files?
Just wondered if it might be systemic.

eSpeak NG isn't currently SAPI 5 compatible. But I installed the latest stable windows build ( 1.49.2 3ed34d3 released on Sep 24, 2017), and it does include a "zhy_dict" file. |
I can not reproduce this issue. @feerrenrut May be we should consider a bump of espeak? |
Maybe we may consider updating espeak to latest master?
There were some updates out there for particular languages.

|
I've had correspondence from another user reporting this. Did we work out what the issue is with the language? |
The voice's still broken in alpha-20758,0098a31a. |
I have a potential fix for this, could you please test this build from #12370 |
@feerrenrut That seems to work. |
As the title says, this voice is broken.
After a quick look at eSpeak NG's source files, there are a few that start with zhy. I believe these, when compiled, create the Cantonese voice. I couldn't find any zhy files in C:\Program Files (x86)\NVDA\synthDrivers\espeak-ng-data.
Steps to reproduce:
Actual behavior:
NVDA doesn't speak.
Expected behavior:
NVDA should speak with the selected voice.
System configuration
NVDA installed/portable/running from source:
Installed, but this also happens with portable installations.
NVDA version:
2019.2.1
Windows version:
10.0.18362 Build 18362
