Text to speech?

[ElectraBurst]

Hello, i bought this app in order to attempt to use my TTS software within VR, as i am a mute and cannot speak.

I use Balabolka, and i was wondering if anyone may have any info on this if it's possible, when i did it, it didn't let me input text or anything.

If it's not possible, can someone tell me of any solutions that i can use? I'm stuck unfortunately.
I have tried OVR Toolkit and Desktop portal is the second program i have purchased to try it.

Thank you, your reply is much appreciated.

Hi!

I got it working, maybe it's not the perfect solution but a temporary.

First I tried creating a Balabolka-window but with no success.
What seemed to work was to capture my whole screen (I used my secondary screen and maximized Balabolka on that one). I also used the built in DesktopPortal keyboard to type and F5 to read the text, important thing is that the Balbolka window is active when typing on DP keyboard.

Hope it's to some help.

Heyo! It's something I've thought about adding more specific support for, but for now there isn't a great way to do it. I'd probably just capture the window like Quadmas said and use the DP keyboard to type what you needed.

What are you stuck on exactly (so I'm able to help better :D)?

I have a quickstart tutorial if that helps :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe0Zm58l3hc

Basically i added the window for balabolka, and it didn't let me enter text, i have enabled the options it needed, however it just didn't give me any interactions. i feel like now it's a problem with the actual software as Balabolka doesn't work within your tool or within Virtual desktop... Well, with virtual desktop it just gives me a whole train wreck of errors and stuff...

I'm going to watch that video though, maybe i missed something.
