Speech output: selection of a non-default TTS engine

[choo]

Hi Martin,

Would you consider adding the option to choose a TTS engine for the speech output? Currently, one can choose the language but not the engine. Some engines are better than others for a specific language.

Thanks for considering this suggestion.

Kind Regards,

Lan

Automagic should use the default engine configured on the device. You should be able to switch to another engine in the settings of Android.
I add it to the list of features under consideration to select the engine in Automagic.

Hi Martin,

I understand that but would like to have the option in AutoMagic to use a different engine than the default because it's better for a specific language that is either not handled by its counterpart or has better rendering tone.

Thanks for considering this suggestion.

Kind Regards,

Lan

I have bought a German speech engine that sounds very good and it's the default one. But if I want that AM says something in an other language I have first to change the default speech engine. It would be fine if I could select in the action "speech output" which speech engine and language I want to use.
