PowerShell script to generate Voice Messages with Azure Cognitive Services Text to Speech

Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services are a collection of API to help Bots, websites and programs to use natural method of communication. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/

There are six different areas (vision, speech, knowledge, search, language and anomaly detection) where Azure Cognitive Services allows developers to build applications that walk, talk and interact with users like a real human being.

In this App I use Text-to-Speech Service REST API https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/rest-text-to-speech to generate new voice messages. It’s very easy (even for a non-developer like me) and it’s free for normal needs.

Chinese, Japanese language support?

Hi Luca,

I am super new to using Azure TTS. I saw your program, it is very nice and simple to use. However, I am unable to make it work for Chinese or Japanese. Not sure whether your program is set to work only in English.

Thank you for any advice you can give.

Text is not handed over to Azure in UTF8 Encoding

Hi Luca, I haven't picked apart your code but i suspect that text entered in the input box of your GUI does not get sent to Azure using UTF8 encoding. For common special characters in Switzerland like, "ä","ö","ü" I have to type "ae","oe","ue" which is what we use in German if special characters are not allowed. I tested it with a python script which also uses Azure Cognitive Services. I have it set to UTF 8 and ä,ö,ü work fine there. Any chance you could try to fix this? Thanks, Martin
