Just a couple days ago, I saw this project mentioned. Looks promising but I haven't had the time to try it yet so this isn't an endorsement. https://claudio.uk

- mrjay42 2y agoJust coming back here for a little report. This tool "audiblez" works fine and out of the box. Pros: * works out of the box * text to speech available in many languages!! * Audio output in .wav -> easily convertible into something else * automatically creates chapters based on the book The limitations are: * the voices are very "AI"-style, so they sound emotionless, we're far from anything resembling any kind of acting; * the conversion of a book into an audiobook might just crash if the script encounters a character that it doesn't know how to convert.
- zertrin 2y agoYes I've also tried it and reached similar conclusions. Do update it to the latest version though, as I did report an issue with non ASCII characters and for me it got fixed in v0.4.7+
