TTS feature (Google or not)
I'm using your project to cast home automation notifications through SmartThings; which work brilliantly.
However, I can't seem to adjust the TTS to something I want. The standard is not quite the right voice for a UK english person and the Google TTS option with the correct language is just too slow to sound correct.
Is there a way to increase the Google TTS speed? I am using the functions through webCoRE like: Speak text..., Speak... etc. But there is no setting there for TTS speed, nor is there in the settings of the individual cast devices added by Cast-Web.
Interesting, for other people (including myself) Google tts is broken.Is Google TTS working for you right now?
Will look into setting the speed and why it's broken (for some users?).
Yes it works fine for me.
I have noticed that if I access Google Translate from my browser with my Google account logged in and then click the sound icon until it reaches a certain speed, then that's the speed it remembers for the Google homes.
If I click the speaker icon until it reaches its fastest speed and leave it like that then that's what comes out of the speakers. But it's still too slow to sound natural.
