Remote control for TTS in Android/Moon+ Reader?
Fri 6 Dec 2013, 9:38 am
Hi All, Long time no see. I wonder if anyone knows of a remote control device that can work the TTS in Moon+ Reader on my HTC Desire (android)? I usually listen to book when I go on my morning bicycle rides. It would be v. nice if there were a earbud headset or something where I could pause the reading, quickly repeat the previous 5 seconds, or rewind as required. I know plenty of earbudheadsets have remotes which allow you to control the MP3 player, so theoretically, should be something to control book readers. No? BTW, I use the Amy voice in Ivona TTS engine. Awesome! It is so natural, almost spooky! light years ahead of google voice or any of the others I have used. Thanks for any suggestions.

I don't have an answer for you, just a thumbs up for ivona tts and Amy (UK) voice. Best tts I've heard yet. There is a US voice but she does not sound as sexy . Currently free while in beta.
Btw, if you are into tts, you should check out moon reader, which gives you more tts control, pause / resume and jumping to next / prev sentence / page. You can also add a sort of translation table to correct some misreading, like I.e. = I e not I dot e. No. Followed by non numeric = no not number w/ = with Not w slash I don't know what it supports in term of remote control, though. It's on sale now for $2.50. |
