I was looking simple solution where I can stream text and simultaneously play voice(text to speech) in the background. from threading import Thread def speech_thread(text): """Run TTS in a separate thread.""" engine = pyTextToSpeech() tts_thread = Thread(target=engine.text_to_speech, ar…

nice! great share, thanks; gonna test it out with one of the things i’m working on!

Hi @Jagpreet - Which Python TTS engine are you using?

Hi @asehmi I am using pyttsx3 find the code below class pyTextToSpeech(): def __init__(self) -> None: self.engine = pyttsx3.init() self.voices = self.engine.getProperty('voices') self.rate = self.engine.getProperty('rate') self.engine.setProperty('rate', self.r…

Right, I did something very similar, but only saw the word by word text loaded into Streamlit after the TTS was completed. I was expecting when you said “speech_thread() which generates speech along the text stream” that the printed words and voiced words would be almost in sync. pyttsx3 is not thr…

the simultaneous stream and speech is working for me, but yeah I am also figuring out to get it synched, One way is to adjust the sleep counter in response_generator function but require trial and error. I was thinking write it as an python async function but read somewhere that streamlit does not …

Thanks. Not sure gTTS will stream the word segments, so syncing words and text, as you see in Karaoke or Spotify lyrics, will require other techniques. I’ve done a lot of research on using asyncio with Streamlit, so might be worth writing it up. It is possible, and not too hard! I’ve built a commer…
