Oh, sorry, forgot to mention I'm using Kodi on MacOSX. Yes, I have tried the Kodi screen reader for WINDOWS, and it didn't give me the same issue. The issue is only present on the Kodi screen reader for Mac. Ok, how do I get a log file going?

Ok, I was able to manually locate the log files because I didn't get an email with the URL to the files. How can I get the log files to you?

Hello Ruuk, I was wondering if you could help out with something. With the HDHomerun viewer add on (not the DVR), The speech tends to ramble on reading the working directory. Would it be possible to fix this?

Traker1001: The new version should fix the issue. This was likely an issue for all addons when running on windows.

Hello,
Let me first thank the creator(s) of the KODI screen reader App. It's great to know that visually impaired individuals like myself won't miss out on using such an excellent cord cutting program due to an unfortunate physical limitation.
I'm hoping someone here can instruct me on how to setup the KODI Python speech server on my Windows 10 PC to work with my AppleTV 5th gen? I do understand the KODI screen reader won't work directly on Android or iOS devices, but the speech server will work.
If not, maybe give a link to a page giving detailed instructions on how to do this?
Yes, I already have a Windows 10 Private Home Network setup so my PC, laptop and AppleTV can see one another (Share music files.) Thanks.

Hello Saybro, You are correct this is the only way for speech to work on android and possibly Apple TV. However currently there are no detailed write ups on how to install and use the speech server as this has not been something that has really been developed. There may be sometime in the future as this is something I am intending to write up as time permits. Even if there were, I am not sure the KodiTTS would work with the latest AppleTV. As I was under the impression that Python based add-ons don't function with Kodi on the 5th gen AppleTV. Hopefully someone will correct me if I am wrong.

Kind of figured the 5th gen of the AppleTV would be difficult to incorporate this function into. Well I do own a Zidoo X6 Pro Android TV Box (Running Android 5.1 Lollipop currently) so if there was a way of getting this TTS server working with it... I'll be quite HAPPY!
Only caveat is that to get the most from the Rockchip RK3368 processor powering this box, I must use their ZDMC clone of KODI. Yes, all KODI add-ons can be enabled in ZDMC, but of course the screen reader won't work due to it being an Android box.
Look forward to a tutorial on how to get this Speech server work-around running. Thanks for your input.
