Hi ! i'm having issues with getting vts to work with channel point redemptions. it works alongside chat when i make it use !say ___.... however it refuses to work with channel points
heya! if you are in version 2.0.18 you need to enable alt twitch connection, set the channel points redeem and then save and restart vtspog given that one is running still through the old api. If you are on beta 2.0.55 keep the alt twitch connection DISABLED and that should do the trick
remember also to enable the text input on the channel point redeem. If still doesnt work after all that come through to the vtspog discord server, make a thread on support ideally showing the error in motion in a screen recording and what you have already set up and we can look at it together there
I'm really confused. I want to make a new 2d pet for this, but I don't know how to put it into Streamlabs (with my other avatar being there). I don't know how to take a PNG up either. Can someone help me? I'm very confused ; - ;
Heya! On the side menu of vtspog theres a link to the discord server. Make a thread on the support channel there and I can guide you and help ya in any issues you have over there
Hello! I've always had issues with vts pog and never really had the time to come ask about it, but tonight I do! I have a lot of issues where vts pog will work absolutely perfect one stream, and then the next it'll not work at all with no changes done to it. I just closed the program for a week, and then it won't work. Could not get her to work at all tonight after closing and re-opening several times, trying to update, turn on/off certain settings, nothing. Some help/advice would be appreciated because it's almost like my bot herself is temper mental on if it wants to work or not.
Heyaaa! Tricky weekend this one, if you are using streamelements for the tts (it comes selected by default in vtspog) then the issue comes from that this weekend. The external connection for their tts seems to be down with no indicator of when/if its coming back up
For the other issues/instances you mention, I would love to help ya troubleshoot ❤️ im not at home this weekend but once Im back home monday if you come over our discord server (link on the vtspog side menu) i would love to give ya a hand in a support thread there
Really glad I checked here because I was so confused as to why my pet stopped talking ;A; Fingers crossed they fix that soon. For now I guess... he's gonna sound different lol
I have another program that just READS my chat to me. And i like that. No channel points needed. Does this also do that or does it need redemptions, sub notifs, etc? I only have a few viewers and like to let them save their points for other redeems
heya! Thats a really weird an specific windows error that happens to some users but given I cant replicate it myself I cant fully fix it atm. It happens when running vtspog from a shortcut or from windows quicklaunch from searching with the windows key (to some users it happens with one and not the other or viceversa) but if you run it from the vtspog folder directly by double clicking the exe it should work properly as usual. Sorry for the trouble!
Can this be technically used to speak on stream with TTS ? I have anxiety issues with talking so I'm thinking of using TTS to talk in my streams but I have yet to find a program that isn't a subscription! Mainly asking before I buy this, I don't want to buy something I'm unsure will work just yet ^^;;.
Heya! It has an option to have a floating window that overlaps other programs and you can type to speak with it. If you come over to our discord server I can upload ya a quick video showing how it works before you buy (though it may take me a bit, will be a bit away from the pc this weekend)
Heya! Loving this plugin so much! I'm having a hiccup with setting up a split soundboard pet. I got it working with its own browser source, with soundboard specified in its html file, and default specified in my regular tts pet, but when I test a soundboard file both pets get triggered. Is there a way to disable the default one?
heya! did you rename "default" the pet on the browser source of the original one? By default they came set up as "" which is basically a wildcard and will read everything, you need to set it up as "default" in order for it to only read tts. If you did and its still not working or you are having issues setting it up come over to our discord server (link in vtspog itself, bottom of the side menu) and make a thread in support there and we can give it a look together, hopefully we can figure out what may be happening
Hello, I am running into an issue where with chatgpt 3.5 turbo pogukun just wont remember the name i set for them. they only refer to themselves as pogukun no matter how many times i set "kori" as their name. Is there a way to fix this?
Hiya! I recently had my TTS fully break, so I had to reinstall the latest version. Now, the previous Tiktok TTS voice I was using doesn't seem to work, as do none of the other Tiktok voices. If this is a "me" problem, or you have any ideas what's wrong, I'd love some help!
abra algún tipo de devolución? por mas que quise intentar ponerlo no le entendí y mas que debía usar otro programa como el vt estudio ya que no se ingles pensé que seria sencillo pero no pude ya que quise poner una mascotita para alegrar la vos vacía sin avatar perdón por la molestia T-T
buenas! itchio tiene opciones de devolucion pero el proceso depende de ellos. Igualmente sientete libre de pasarte por nuetro server de discord y intentaré ayudarte lo mejor que pueda si quieres. Si entras crea un thread en support (crealo en español, CERO dramas) y lo vamos viendo juntos ahi. Vtubestudio NO ES NECESARIO para correr el programa, puedes tener mascotitas png directo en obs/streamlabs sin necesidad de vtubestudio tmb,
Hey! Before I buy it I just want to know if I can only do bits/donations that my png reacts too. SO every time someone donates and the TTS happens, can I connect them?
heya! yep! you can decided what stuff your pet reads/reacts to. I recommend people with high viewers average to limit it only to bits and donos to prevent spam. For donos depending on the donos you use, you may need to connect vtspog to mixitup or streamerbot so they send the dono event data to vtspog, but its doable. If you need help with that feel free to come over to the discord server and I can guide you through that with any of those programs as an in between~ (link to discord server on vtspog itself at the bottom of the side menu)
Hello! I'm not sure if this is something you have control over but maybe at least you could forward this to the right place. The StreamElements voices for German, Albert, Oskar, and Sebastian are suddenly all the same when they definitely weren't before. I used Sebastian for my TTS Pet and now that the voice is different, my community is very sad :(
heya! I tried reported this to stream elements but got now response for them a few weeks back. Probably about time to do a second report soon... Sadly yeah, outside my control I'm afraid D: the list of voices affected is a bit longer too
hello!! i love vts p.o.g. and have been using it for a year or so, i recently moved my alerts over to twitch alerts and was wondering if it will work with the twitch alerts soon for the TTS? if not totally fine, i was just wondering !
heya! tbh I have seen nothing about twitch alerts as a system, given I saw a lot of overlap between that and the default twitch connection for third party apps like vtspog, and some other "event catchers" programs like mixitup or streamerbot (which vtspog already connects to). Would have to do some testing and see what exactly those provide timing or event wise in comparison with those, so I wouldn't discard it but I feel that for most cases those other options should cover em already (I might be mistaken though! )
its possible though the setup its a bit trick. Mixitup or streamerbot as an inbetween would be needed. If you can come over to the discord server (link in vtspog at the bottom of the side menu), make a thread over on support and explain the setup in detail you are aiming to achive and I would advice you/guide you on how to set it up as best as I can
heya! probably obs is not capturing vtspog audio correctly. Here in the docs there's a couple of ways listed on how to capture vtspog audio with obs(most of them also apply to streamlabs desktop too)
I have an issue where the 'pet' won't respond to a question unless I restart the program. It seems to happen after a while without anyone using the redeem. How do I avoid this?
heya! hard to say with just that. I would need a bit more info to try to figure out what mayt be failing. Can you come over to our discord server and make a support thread over there explaining the issue in as much detail as possible? Hopefully we can figure out whats happening together
Hello, I'm not sure why I'm having this issue or if anyone else is encountering this. When I go to test reactions to a alert reaction for the mascot it only works once and then never again for any of the alerts. I don't know what I did to break it but I've been watching tutorials for hours and nothing is working.
heya! I sorry, I can quite understand the specific issue you are having. It will be best if you come over to our discord server and make a thread on the support channel there (ideally with a video showing the issue) and we can give it a look together. Watching the error/issue in motion helps a lot for me to understand what may be happening 🙏
Heya! Got this quite a while ago. Didn't have a chance to use it. Was planning to this year... But I ran into a problem.
I was planning to use a voice from ElevenLabs, but they've turned it into a "Legacy" voicebank, meaning it doesn't show up in the menu anymore. It seems this can be fixed easily, just by setting a flag when connecting to their API. Think you can implement this in a future update?
heya! can you come over to our discord server and get a bit into detail of the issue on a support thread there? Not fully understanding the situation atm but if there's a quick solution to it sure. I would need more details in order to replicate the issue myself for a start.
i am gettering a message "VTS P.O.G. found an error during warm up! Please restart the program, that tends to do the trick." trying multiple times trying as admin and even fully uninstalling and reinstalling it doesnt work it still gives the same issue
heya! hard to say with just that. If you can come over to our discord server (link in the itchio page) you can make a thread on support there and we can try to figure out together what may be wrong. When you make the thread, please also share there a recording showing your full screen since before opening vtspog, then opening and triggering that error so I can have a better idea of the whole situation and we can see from there ♥
Hello there! I'm a non-mic streamer who wanted to add audio to my chat, and VTS POG is working excellently for my needs so far. I use Chroneco's OnStreamChat program to link phrases (and text emotes!) up to different expressions for a PNGtuber model.
I'd like to keep the text emotes silent while still using them, although haven't found any way to silence them properly. In Moderation Settings, "Don't read emoji" only works for emojis proper. "Banned words" also doesn't filter text emotes, but - presumably being meant for actual moderation - will otherwise filter an entire message outright.
(I tested this with the following text emotes: ^.^; ~ ^.^ ~ :) ~ ;-; ~ D: ~ *u* )
Is there a way for VTS POG to filter text emotes or other very select text at the moment, or plans to add one in the future? I'm on VTS POG version 2.0.18, if that helps.
There's no rush! Either way, thank you so much for the program!
I'm interested in this but I want to continue using speakerbot as my method of using TTS which is sent to a virtual audio cable and I'm not seeing that this allows for getting that for moving the model. Is there any plans for allowing such things? For what it's worth, I am using Azure Cognitive Services for the TTS since I'm able to adjust the voice for what I want it and speakerbot just gives me a bit more flexibility for that as well.
heya! not atm but its something that was a feature back in beta on 2022 that I want to re-add again. We have support for azure tts, but its a bit more barebones compared to speaker bot. TLDR; not working with speakerbot atm, but a feature will allow it soon
Hello! I love this program so much, thank you so much for your hard work!
I was wondering do you plan on adding to the customization of captions? Maybe curving the edges, making the text box into different shapes, or adding an image background to it?
One of the many things on my eternal to do list but for sure. MORE caption options are must D: there's simple not enough good ones atm indeed. Someday for sure!
Is there a way to block or prevent engagement with specific users? I have someone on my stream who keeps grooming my pet to say really dumb things that goes against her personality. I have to reset her memory frequently so that she'll stop being cringe for this user's enjoyment. I don't want to ban the person but it's getting very annoying to deal with it every stream
heya! thats super werid! You can find a link to our discord server on the main page https://vtspog.com , feel free to make a thread on support there and we can give ya a hand over there to try to make it work. I'm positive we can figure it out if we check it out together ♥
heya! you need to download the new version and just unzip the file and either replace the folder or delete the old one and just use the new one. VTS P.O.G. saves configuration on windows appdata so configs carry over between versions, they are not saved on the vtspog folder..
little experience myself in mac development so I wouldnt even know where to start with that, sadly a bit outside of my knowledge as a developer. I'm planning on getting a mac around February (hopefully) to adapt vtspog for mac cause I don't even have one myself and are a bit hard/expensive to get where I live (Argentina)
not a linux user myself, so low experience in adapting it to it BUT one of our users made a guide on how to run it on linux. I wasnt able to try it myself, but seems to be working after many hoops! Let me link the video they made going through their setup here
not atm, but ollama support is in the works, so far the most stable option for local llm I have found. If you know coding, you can also send generated responses to vtspog through our local api, but the setup may be a bit complex unless you are confident in your python (given most local llm model solutions run in python)
for the openai stuff why just make the b ase url customizable so we can use lmstudios server
# Chat with an intelligent assistant in your terminalfrom openai import OpenAI # Point to the local server client = OpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:1234/v1", api_key="lm-studio") history = [ {"role": "system", "content": "You are an intelligent assistant. You always provide well-reasoned answers that are both correct and helpful."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, introduce yourself to someone opening this program for the first time. Be concise."}, ] whileTrue: completion = client.chat.completions.create( model="model-identifier", messages=history, temperature=0.7, stream=True, ) new_message = {"role": "assistant", "content": ""} for chunk in completion: if chunk.choices[0].delta.content: print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="", flush=True) new_message["content"] += chunk.choices[0].delta.content history.append(new_message) # Uncomment to see chat history# import json# gray_color = "\033[90m"# reset_color = "\033[0m"# print(f"{gray_color}\n{'-'*20} History dump {'-'*20}\n")# print(json.dumps(history, indent=2))# print(f"\n{'-'*55}\n{reset_color}")print() history.append({"role": "user", "content": input("> ")})
if they use the openai api we the base url can be changed and can run a server with lmstudio that be dope if they can update and use xtts-api-server also
didnt know about lms studio or coqui so i would need to give em a check, but I'm always open to suggestions. Will try giving em a look once I have the time~
As a vtuber I'm interested in this program, since it looks cool and also interesting way to interact with a chat.And also, I saw the Vnyan integration on twitter.
But do you plan any language update? For example Ukrainian? Unfortunately, not so many TTS working with this language and it's a bit upset.
heya! sadly the vast majority of voices available around are in english, the market is way too focused there. We have in streamelements and azure tts voices in ukranian but only 3 with them added up (and quality tbh cant compare to the english ones). So we have some ukranian voices, just not many D:
Hello! I have a ton of recorded lines by my hubby for my mascot. Is there anyway to have my stream deck pipe that audio and have his mouth move? Or should i plan on getting a basic animated mouth. Thank you!
heya! yep, vtspog can play arbitrary audio files. Either by api request or by setting em on the soundboard and triggering em using the keyword you set for em. Feel free to make a thread on the discord server support or ping me in discord dms and i can explain to ya a bit better there if its not clear enough with this ~
i have worked a bit with ollama api there were some months. So if you want some views from other people about it, i will be glad to talk about it with you in prevate message.
Hi! for some reason the sound just cuts off all together when i try to run the TTS. its not coming out of the program. when it was working everything was fine but then it just stopped and no matter what i do and no matter how many times i reinstall it i cant hear anything anymore
heya! sounds like an issue with the audio output. Go to audio settings in vtspog and select the output to be your output device of choice (headphone or spealers) and make sure it doesnt have "default" in its name when selecting it. Windows sometimes does some weird stuff when vtspog tries to access devices listed as that (they should appear listead twice, one normally and one with the "default" in the name). After selecting it remember to click the button "select device" on the top right and then save vtspog. Once it finished saving, restart vtspog and see if that did the trick.
Also when opening vtspog check if the green message that says vtspog started correctly appears after doing that.
Try that, and if it doesnt work create a thread over at our discord server (you can find the link in vtspog itself at the bottom of the left menu). If you are reading this on the 9th I probably wont be able to check that today but hopefully tomorrow on the 10th i can check it in detail. I'm confident we will be able to fix it together if so ♥
as long as you have the tangia overlay open on obs/streamlabs desktop at the same time, tangia should send the tts over to vtspog . TTS setup must be done on tangias side, and when a tts from tangia is played, it will be played in vtspog instead. You can find our discord server link at the bottom of vtspog menu, if you are still having trouble feel free to come over to the server, make a thread in support showing whats your setup atm and we can see from there (much easier to check stuff there than in comments here)
Its a way to have two Redeem with twitch channel points? Like one for subcribers and another for non subs, and if its posible having a png for each one
heya! not possible atm to have two tts png pets. The support for multipets that we have is by role separation atm: one pet for normal tts, one pet for soundboard sounds, one pet for ai with chatgpt. Support for more pet like multiple ai/tts ones is planned for the future though

For the other issues/instances you mention, I would love to help ya troubleshoot ❤️ im not at home this weekend but once Im back home monday if you come over our discord server (link on the vtspog side menu) i would love to give ya a hand in a support thread there
Sorry for the trouble 🙏
Really glad I checked here because I was so confused as to why my pet stopped talking ;A;
Fingers crossed they fix that soon. For now I guess... he's gonna sound different lol
I have another program that just READS my chat to me. And i like that. No channel points needed. Does this also do that or does it need redemptions, sub notifs, etc? I only have a few viewers and like to let them save their points for other redeems
yes! theres an option under the chat settings in vtspog to enable it to read chat just like that~
Awesome! Going to purchase and test this then!
feel free to reach out through the discord server if you have any questions/issues ♥
Hi !
I'm having issues with VTS POG.
I installed it few days ago, it worked perfectly. The next day, it wasn't that perfect anymore.
I'm originally using Eleven Labs TTS. When trying to make my pet talk (even locally), after few seconds I get error message
A JavaScript error occured in the main process.
Uncaught exception:
Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\eleven.mp3'
which doesn't make any sense to me because of course the TTS is an external API. I tried to generate new API key, same issue.
If I try with free API like streamelements, it works though.
What should I do ? :(
Thank you !
heya! Thats a really weird an specific windows error that happens to some users but given I cant replicate it myself I cant fully fix it atm. It happens when running vtspog from a shortcut or from windows quicklaunch from searching with the windows key (to some users it happens with one and not the other or viceversa) but if you run it from the vtspog folder directly by double clicking the exe it should work properly as usual.

Oh my yes it's working, thank you so much T.T
And don't be sorry, I'm so grateful you made such an amazing app !

Hello, I am running into an issue where with chatgpt 3.5 turbo pogukun just wont remember the name i set for them. they only refer to themselves as pogukun no matter how many times i set "kori" as their name. Is there a way to fix this?
Nvm it just decided it wanted to be kori, has a mind of it's own it seems.
Hahaha it does sometimes! Also when changing ai settings in highly recommend saving and wiping its memory after setting em
Sometimes their memory brainwashes them back if it makes sense
Hiya! I recently had my TTS fully break, so I had to reinstall the latest version. Now, the previous Tiktok TTS voice I was using doesn't seem to work, as do none of the other Tiktok voices. If this is a "me" problem, or you have any ideas what's wrong, I'd love some help!
heya! seems like theres an issue with the tiktok tts service. I just contacted the creator of that service, hopefully its just a temporary issue
Marvelous! Thanks for the quick response!
Hello! I'm having an issue where the TTS will not read messages submitted by bits/subs, but it WILL read chat. Any ideas?
in version 2.0.18 enable alt twitch connection, whole thing with twitch nuking their old api, that should fix it
IT WORKED!
Thank you so much! <3
happy to hear that!!! ♥

Any updates regarding mac development? I have a stream pet that I'd love to use TTS for, but alas, I am stuck with a mac for now.
If no updates, is there an equivalent available that you know of?
no news yet and no that I'm aware of I'm afraid D:
i am gettering a message "VTS P.O.G. found an error during warm up! Please restart the program, that tends to do the trick." trying multiple times trying as admin and even fully uninstalling and reinstalling it doesnt work it still gives the same issue
heya! hard to say with just that. If you can come over to our discord server (link in the itchio page) you can make a thread on support there and we can try to figure out together what may be wrong. When you make the thread, please also share there a recording showing your full screen since before opening vtspog, then opening and triggering that error so I can have a better idea of the whole situation and we can see from there ♥
Hello there! I'm a non-mic streamer who wanted to add audio to my chat, and VTS POG is working excellently for my needs so far. I use Chroneco's OnStreamChat program to link phrases (and text emotes!) up to different expressions for a PNGtuber model.
I'd like to keep the text emotes silent while still using them, although haven't found any way to silence them properly. In Moderation Settings, "Don't read emoji" only works for emojis proper. "Banned words" also doesn't filter text emotes, but - presumably being meant for actual moderation - will otherwise filter an entire message outright.
(I tested this with the following text emotes: ^.^; ~ ^.^ ~ :) ~ ;-; ~ D: ~ *u* )
Is there a way for VTS POG to filter text emotes or other very select text at the moment, or plans to add one in the future? I'm on VTS POG version 2.0.18, if that helps.
There's no rush! Either way, thank you so much for the program!
heya! happy to hear that its working for non-mic streamers ♥♥
And yes! Filtering twitch emotes is in my todo list, its just something tricky to properly do tbh. But its coming!
Excellent, thank you! I have a habit of using some custom text emotes, so I'm looking forward to it. ^.^
I'm interested in this but I want to continue using speakerbot as my method of using TTS which is sent to a virtual audio cable and I'm not seeing that this allows for getting that for moving the model. Is there any plans for allowing such things? For what it's worth, I am using Azure Cognitive Services for the TTS since I'm able to adjust the voice for what I want it and speakerbot just gives me a bit more flexibility for that as well.
heya! not atm but its something that was a feature back in beta on 2022 that I want to re-add again. We have support for azure tts, but its a bit more barebones compared to speaker bot. TLDR; not working with speakerbot atm, but a feature will allow it soon
Hello! I love this program so much, thank you so much for your hard work!
I was wondering do you plan on adding to the customization of captions? Maybe curving the edges, making the text box into different shapes, or adding an image background to it?
Thank you!
One of the many things on my eternal to do list but for sure. MORE caption options are must D: there's simple not enough good ones atm indeed. Someday for sure!
Is there a way to block or prevent engagement with specific users?
I have someone on my stream who keeps grooming my pet to say really dumb things that goes against her personality. I have to reset her memory frequently so that she'll stop being cringe for this user's enjoyment. I don't want to ban the person but it's getting very annoying to deal with it every stream
heya! yeah, on the moderation tab you can add users to be ignored by redeems/the ai. That should do the trick
Thank you!
I can't get VTS pog to start up
heya! thats super werid! You can find a link to our discord server on the main page https://vtspog.com , feel free to make a thread on support there and we can give ya a hand over there to try to make it work. I'm positive we can figure it out if we check it out together ♥
How do I update? I can't seem to find it anywhere
heya! you need to download the new version and just unzip the file and either replace the folder or delete the old one and just use the new one. VTS P.O.G. saves configuration on windows appdata so configs carry over between versions, they are not saved on the vtspog folder..
doesnt seem to run through crossover on mac, window with the program is just non existent with no plugin pop out in vts…
little experience myself in mac development so I wouldnt even know where to start with that, sadly a bit outside of my knowledge as a developer. I'm planning on getting a mac around February (hopefully) to adapt vtspog for mac cause I don't even have one myself and are a bit hard/expensive to get where I live (Argentina)
i would try looking at another vts plugins with mac support for reference
Looking forward to seeing a Linux version!
not a linux user myself, so low experience in adapting it to it BUT one of our users made a guide on how to run it on linux. I wasnt able to try it myself, but seems to be working after many hoops! Let me link the video they made going through their setup here
Thanks for the reply. I'm familiar with Lutris but I don't believe I had tried it for VTS-POG.
I'll give this a shot later and report my findings.
let me know how it goes ♥
Lutris+Proton-GE was the trick!
I was given a free copy to test with some months back that I couldn't get working.
Now that I have this running, I'm buying a copy.
Still would be great to see a native Linux version but this definitely helps!
This the best thing. Thankyou so much for your help and thankyou so much for making this
I want to buy it. But I want to know if can user local llm models
not atm, but ollama support is in the works, so far the most stable option for local llm I have found. If you know coding, you can also send generated responses to vtspog through our local api, but the setup may be a bit complex unless you are confident in your python (given most local llm model solutions run in python)
for the openai stuff why just make the b ase url customizable so we can use lmstudios server
also add support for coqui tts or add support to use use xtts-api-server https://github.com/daswer123/xtts-api-serverThanks I will be wait then ^^
if they use the openai api we the base url can be changed and can run a server with lmstudio that be dope if they can update and use xtts-api-server also
didnt know about lms studio or coqui so i would need to give em a check, but I'm always open to suggestions. Will try giving em a look once I have the time~
is it possible to change the gpt model? i was hoping to use the new 4o mini model
next release! its already available in a test build Im sharing for testing, hit me in the dms on the discord server and I dont mind sharing it ♥
As a vtuber I'm interested in this program, since it looks cool and also interesting way to interact with a chat.And also, I saw the Vnyan integration on twitter.
But do you plan any language update? For example Ukrainian? Unfortunately, not so many TTS working with this language and it's a bit upset.
heya! sadly the vast majority of voices available around are in english, the market is way too focused there. We have in streamelements and azure tts voices in ukranian but only 3 with them added up (and quality tbh cant compare to the english ones). So we have some ukranian voices, just not many D:
Hello! I have a ton of recorded lines by my hubby for my mascot. Is there anyway to have my stream deck pipe that audio and have his mouth move? Or should i plan on getting a basic animated mouth. Thank you!
heya! yep, vtspog can play arbitrary audio files. Either by api request or by setting em on the soundboard and triggering em using the keyword you set for em. Feel free to make a thread on the discord server support or ping me in discord dms and i can explain to ya a bit better there if its not clear enough with this ~
So is this strictly just used as a TTS program or can it also be used as an AI that can answer questions/comments on its own?
both! atm only typed messages either in chat or in the program itself. We are adding microphone support in the near future too ~
So cool!!!! I'll have to get this program when I can!
Do you will make it compatible with Ollama Api too, for people who want free option of chatbot?
most likely! doing some tests with it lately and happy with what im seeing so far :D ♥
i have worked a bit with ollama api there were some months. So if you want some views from other people about it, i will be glad to talk about it with you in prevate message.
feel free to contact me on discord and/or twitter, input and suggestions are always appreciated ♥
Hi! for some reason the sound just cuts off all together when i try to run the TTS. its not coming out of the program. when it was working everything was fine but then it just stopped and no matter what i do and no matter how many times i reinstall it i cant hear anything anymore
to be more precise, it wont work at all sound wise. the models mouth is either stuck open till i uninstall it or it wont even talk at all.
heya! sounds like an issue with the audio output. Go to audio settings in vtspog and select the output to be your output device of choice (headphone or spealers) and make sure it doesnt have "default" in its name when selecting it. Windows sometimes does some weird stuff when vtspog tries to access devices listed as that (they should appear listead twice, one normally and one with the "default" in the name). After selecting it remember to click the button "select device" on the top right and then save vtspog. Once it finished saving, restart vtspog and see if that did the trick.
Also when opening vtspog check if the green message that says vtspog started correctly appears after doing that.
Try that, and if it doesnt work create a thread over at our discord server (you can find the link in vtspog itself at the bottom of the left menu). If you are reading this on the 9th I probably wont be able to check that today but hopefully tomorrow on the 10th i can check it in detail. I'm confident we will be able to fix it together if so ♥
Are you going to eventually make it compatible with Tangia TTS?
it already is! if you have both tangia and vtspog open at the same time, tangia sends the tts over to vtspog to be played. Should work automatically~
It doesn't for me. Do I have to select something other than StreamElements? Since Tangia itself is not an option.
as long as you have the tangia overlay open on obs/streamlabs desktop at the same time, tangia should send the tts over to vtspog . TTS setup must be done on tangias side, and when a tts from tangia is played, it will be played in vtspog instead. You can find our discord server link at the bottom of vtspog menu, if you are still having trouble feel free to come over to the server, make a thread in support showing whats your setup atm and we can see from there (much easier to check stuff there than in comments here)
Its a way to have two Redeem with twitch channel points? Like one for subcribers and another for non subs, and if its posible having a png for each one
heya! not possible atm to have two tts png pets. The support for multipets that we have is by role separation atm: one pet for normal tts, one pet for soundboard sounds, one pet for ai with chatgpt. Support for more pet like multiple ai/tts ones is planned for the future though
i cant keep it on a set voice, it changes each time, how do i fix that
heya! same bunni on the server support threads right? just to make sure we are helping you out already ♥
