<div>Hi David,</div><div><br></div>Each TTS voice is specific to a language and country(accent). And Bible requests a voice for the language of the module and also tries to work out the best country (accent).<div><br></div>
<div>So, you could load an English bible and press Speak which will use Amy, then switch to a German bible and press speak to hear Hans.</div><div><br></div><div>However, there is a TTS bug in this area. If you try to switch language while the previous language is speaking it gets confused and continues speaking in the first language.</div>

<br>
Once you've selected a voice to use by the TTS Engine, does *and-bible* use<br>
that voice for /all/ the installed modules?<br>
<br>
The idea that I'm pursuing in this thread is that you could somehow assign<br>
[say]<br>
<br>
Amy to read the English Bibles<br>
Céline to read the French Bibles<br>
Hans to read the German Bibles<br>
Geraint to read the Welsh Bibles<br>
<br>
and that and-bible would remember each of these settings!<br>
<br>
Likewise for any other front-end that cares to add high quality TTS support.<br>
