Hi,

Is there anyway to make speech recognition work with finnish language? I'm using Windows 10

I have installed Microsoft Speech Platform and a MSSpeech_SR_fi-FI_TELE.msi. But it does nothing. Or I'm doing something wrong...

I have been Googling about finnish speech recognition on Windows 10 and haven't found anything useful. I know that Google speech recognition works great in finnish https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/

I also noticed that finnish tts has stopped working on VoiceBot? I has worked before...

The option is still there, but after pressing Test button nothing happens.

Fix Text-Speech Voices won't fix this.

Windows Speech Recognition doesn't support Finnish, no. Sorry

Regarding the TTS voice, I can't even seem to get the Finnish TTS to install on Windows 10. Did you have to do anything special to get it working?

i don't think so, I just installed the Finnish language pack for Windows 10.

Finnish TTS used to work with VoiceBot. I had it in Spotify Volume control script like this:

Code
Copy
Select All

BFS.Speech.TextToSpeechWithVoice(string.Format("Spotify voimakkuus {0}", volumeRecogResult), "Microsoft Server Speech Text to Speech Voice (fi-FI, Heidi)");

And did work before.

And I have tested tested finnish TTS in other softwares and it does work. It works in Edge Browser for example..

Finnish TTS were added to Win10 in this update: https://www.webbie.org.uk/blog/new-text-to-speech-voices-in-windows-10-anniversary-update/

Ok, thanks! I'll test again and see if I can get it working here.

It seems to be a problem with Text-to-Speech in Windows 10. When I check in the Windows control panel, I get the attached error. Do you get that as well?
