| ## Last versions key changes: | |
| 16/12/2025 | |
| - Created (replaced) a git repository with the chatterbox code from scratch. | |
| - Updated most of the git repository code, syncing with the official 1.0.6. | |
| - Completely replaced the voice tempo (speed) adjustment code: | |
| * Processing is now performed with local sox (downloaded and unpacked locally into the neural network folder). | |
| * No echo, no metallic voice feedback. | |
| - The update no longer updates configuration files (they are simply missing from the update). | |
| 11/12/2025 | |
| - Added a local ffmpeg. Downloaded during a full installation or this update, it no longer depends on the system ffmpeg. | |
| - Switching between language emotion presets will no longer replace the text with the example text. | |
| 9/12/2025 | |
| - Fixed stress placement using the built-in Ruaccent mechanism (using the RUStress button). More accurate stress placement. - Added processing of additional dictionary files from the /dicts folder. Automatic file encoding detection. | |
| WARNING! LARGE DICTIONARIES LEAD TO LONG LOADING AND STRESS PROCESSING!!! NO CLAIMS AGAINST ME!!! | |
| - Changes have been made to the language emote presets - they no longer switch languages, but stay with the one you generate. | |
| 08/12/2025 | |
| - Reference audio is now up to 10 minutes long | |
| - All 24 languages are already enabled and available | |
| - Automatic saving of the last used language for the next engine launch (no need to re-select the last used language) | |
| - Stress marks in Russian can now be added directly in the neural network using the RUStress button | |
| - Added a local dictionary of stress marks for Russian and other languages. Simply edit the accent_fixes.yaml file, which already contains examples, as the Ruaccent dictionary I use is the best available, but not perfect. Ease of use. | |
| - Automatic saving of output audio files to the /outputs folder. Changing the audio compression format changes the audio file format. There is no local cache of audio files. |
