TTS VS ESP8266Audio

Ive tried the same code which i use for the arduino but changed the gpio pin to 0(D3) on the node mcu. The code does get uploaded but didnt receive any audio output. What do I need to change in order for it to work. Here is the link to the library which does mention it supports esp8266. Here is the example code.

The link to the github page.

There is a really crappy-sounding text to speech library for arduino. I think it's a pretty good feat that the programmer was able to get this to run on an arduino at all, but it sounds even worse than the 80's text-to-speech chips.

There are also pure software TTS solutions available such as this library that claim to run on a plain Arduino Uno without much external hardware other than perhaps some form of amplifier. I have not used this library myself but it looks interesting.

Having an issue here using the ESP8266 Audio library (found here).

The Arduino sketch that works for me reads the data out of PROGMEM. When I use that same raw data in ESPhome, it crashes my ESP too. Would there be a way to play from PROGMEM in ESPhome too? Other ways in the library are a function or streaming, but that doesn't fit my use case unfortunately.

If you're getting started, the ESP8266Audio library makes it easy to play audio with the Arduino toolchain. For more advanced use cases, Espressif's own ESP-ADF has a lot of useful features and examples.

Not sure where you got that. According to the ESP8266Audio documentation, the default GPIOs are 2, 15, and 3. You're trying to change 15 to 13.

ESP8266Audio is really fun and easy to use

The ESP32 might suffice for that then, depending on what you consider to be basic applications. It certainly has wifi and bluetooth functionality and you can do audio with an extra chip or an interesting workaround. The ESP32-A1S module even has the necessary chip integrated but you'll likely need to roll a custom PCB for it.

I am simply using the sample code from here. https://github.com/earlephilhower/ESP8266Audio
