Hi @hongzzz
Thanks for reporting the issue, does this issue happened recently or it never works?
Could you help to check below?

1. visit http://dict.youdao.com/dictvoice?audio=test, check if there's any connectivity issue, if works, check next one.
2. if file '/tmp/tmp_raycast_simpleyd.mp3' is existing, if yes, check next one.
3. please help to run cmd afplay "/tmp/tmp_raycast_simpleyd.mp3" -v 1 from your terminal.

The actual process of pronunciation is downloading the audio file and use afplay command to play it.
I tested it locally, works fine, I need to understand if the problem in your side is in download phase or command execution phase.

Hey @xeric , I tried that both 1 and 2 were successful. But for 3, it can not be played.

Here is screenshot.

And I tried to open the file via IINA and Quicktime player, also failed

[hongzzz]

Maybe the issue is related to downloading an MP3 file.

[xeric]

@hongzzz Thanks for your information!
your browser can access the audio file, but when the file downloaded, it could not be openned.
What is the size of this mp3 file? If it is not zero size, would you mind to upload this local mp3 file to somewhere for my investigation?

[hongzzz]

@xeric Its size is 70 bytes.

Here is the link

[hongzzz]

I found that the MP3 file failed to download.
Its content is response data json.

[xeric]

@hongzzz yes, I feel there's something wrong with your youdao audio url accessing, but you said it works fine in your browser, right? If yes, means the behavior in browser and in Raycast they are different, did you setup any proxy or special DNS for your Raycast? or your browser has setup some proxy or DNS to make it work?
Or can you try it in different network environment?

[hongzzz]

Raycast is the same network env with my browser.

[xeric]

That's tricky.
Since I totally could not reproduce the issue, would you mind try below:
Create a Script Command in Raycast, choose nodejs as Template, give a name such as 'Download Youdao MP3'.
In created js file, put below code:

const url = 'http://dict.youdao.com/dictvoice?audio=test';

fetch(url).then(resp => {console.log(resp.status); resp.text().then(json => console.log(json))});

save it, run from raycast, check the output of the script command, I printed status code and content in this code.

@xeric Thanks for your help. I just discovered the issue - I had not turned on the TTS function, which resulted in error code 110.

[xeric]

oh, I see, I did not realize that the audio file is from the pronunciation link of API, I thought your case would run into fallback url, thanks for your feedback and glad to see it turn to work now.
