TTS Generator - Various interface bugs & filtering options cleaned up.
TTS Generator - TTSDiff now scans generated text and TTS for errors.
TTS Generator - TTSSRT now creates subtitle files for video production e.g. a Youtube video.
Finetune - Now uses a customised tokenizer to deal with Japanese.
Finetune - Pre flight check and warning messages.
Finetune - Extra documentation and warnings.
Entire file structure has been re-organised to simplify management and future changes.
Documentation (built in and Github) has been rewritten/tidied up.
Requirements files have been cleaned up and simplified.
ATsetup has been re-written as necessary with additional options.
DeepSpeed moved up to version 14.
Standalone Application moved to PyTorch 2.2.1.
Nvidia CUDA Toolkit installation is NO LONGER needed (other than to compile DeepSpeed on Linux)
Tested on Linux and Windows.
Added sounddevice as its currently well supported. Allows playback at the terminal/command prompt.
Added speakers_xtts.pth to the modeldownload.json as it will be needed for finetuning in future updates of TTS 0.22.0+
Applies the same race condition fix for narrator/character that potentially existed, but for the standalone mode API. Will have zero effect for anyone not using the API
Much older systems with low system ram are taking 70 seconds to start up (so Im told). Ive added an extra 20 seconds onto the 60 seconds for subprocess start-up.
documentation updated too.
Had to update a variable due to the latest version of pydantic using a similar variable and causing a potential clash. As such, I have had to use a new configuration file (simplest method). Peoples base settings will be reset on next update. Added a option in the config file for standalone mode output.
Added:
- new documentation
- demo in the documentation
- extra API endpoints (yet to be documented)
- voice notification on change of model or setting
- DeepSpeed update to v11.x and re-documented
- improved vocab bringing the XTTSv2 model closer to sounding like the sample, with improved pronunciation and intonation.
The narrator and filtering has been re-written to vastly improve filtering of text, resulting in less unwanted sounds and better control over narrator/character.
