What's new

  • Karaoke-style word highlighting: as a selection is read aloud, the word currently being spoken is highlighted in the popover, using Kokoro's own per-word timing.
  • Popover is a bit larger, with more room for the voice list.
  • Several bug fixes from an adversarial code review: a crash on certain short chunks, a "stuck reading forever" state when a chunk failed to synthesize, a clipboard-corruption bug in the text-selection fallback, and removal of a debug audio-logging path that shouldn't have shipped.
