Arvioitu 4/5
kirjoittanut SomeAB, kolme vuotta sittenTL:DR - I personally find MS Zira voice with 75% speed, 100% pitch, to be good enough for most scenarios. Default settings sound horrible, but can be tweaked, that is what I mean.
Okay overall with all things considered, this is currently among the most easy to use TTS (Text to Speech) addons
Pros:
- Easy to use, works fine with a google translated page, easily identifies what you want to read
- You can use Google Wavenet, Amazon Polly & IBM Watson voices with it, if you have API access (all 3 of them have a free tier)
- Has a dark background pop-up that shows the text in a simple readable format alongside speech
Cons:
- Biggest con is that it doesn't use the new Microsoft voices that come with Windows Narrator. It only uses the old Zira, Adam, voices which are of lower quality.
- No way to add a custom Offline voice model. The option of 'Custom Voice is for the online APIs'
- I heard somewhere, that even in offline mode, it does uses some google apis, but haven't checked myself. Given it is recommended by Mozilla officially, I guess its alright for non-security scenarios.

- Arvioitu 1/5kirjoittanut rift, kaksi päivää sittenrandomly stutters, loads for a minute, then gives up.
skips the first ten words.
can't see short sentences unless highlighted.
worse than useless. - Arvioitu 5/5kirjoittanut Firefox-käyttäjä 14934088, neljä päivää sitten

- Arvioitu 5/5kirjoittanut lamppost, kolme kuukautta sittenSo happy with this, I use it to read e-books which I open in the browser.
- Arvioitu 3/5kirjoittanut kone, kolme kuukautta sittenIt would be great if there were also a context menu option called "Read aloud from here."
With the standard columns, it always pauses briefly at the end of each line. If it would first analyze the entire sentence and then read it aloud in one go, that would be much more pleasant. I would find pauses between sentences much more pleasant! - Arvioitu 1/5kirjoittanut sodar, kolme kuukautta sittenI was having high hopes at first, but then I learned it doesn't let you use the different voices for TTS you may have installed on Windows, for example. I WANT TO LISTEN TO ANDREW'S VOICE DAMMIT (seriously, his TTS voice is really nice on the ears, you'll find it in Narrator settings as a "Natural" voice)

- Arvioitu 2/5kirjoittanut BoxFolve, kolme kuukautta sittenKeeps skipping sentences - Very annoying. The standard voice sound like a choking tin frog. The AI voices are substantially better. But why is it skipping sentences?
- Arvioitu 5/5kirjoittanut Didactic Traveller, kolme kuukautta sittenJust want to counter the people rating one star and saying there's only awful voices. There are really good ones, particularly supertonic. Just download them in the settings and activate them. Seriously, try opening the settings before review bombing.
Moreover, the native PDF support is quite good. PDFs can cause trouble with this sort of software, yet it works great here. - Arvioitu 5/5kirjoittanut d4nchq, neljä kuukautta sittenIt's awesome, you can use different voices for TTS and can setup useful shortcut to run it.
- Arvioitu 1/5kirjoittanut Zero, neljä kuukautta sittenThis extension was great! I have problems seeing font on dark websites because there isn't a light mode toggle on some of them. So, I use to use this to read what was posted. However, I was going to use it again today, it now asks for permission for all open url data when before it just did what it was meant to do. No thank you to that. It'd be great if it returned back to what it originally did.

- Arvioitu 1/5kirjoittanut Gio, neljä kuukautta sittenHoly terrible, dont bother the voice sounds like a 90 year old smoker, how about we fix that.
