  Here are my findings on the hardware of the Orbit Player vs the SensePlayer. The Orbit Player uses a MediaTek Helio P22 (octa-core Cortex-A53, 4 1.8 GHZ cores and 4 1.5 GHZ cores). It has 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage. The SensePlayer uses a MediaTek Helio P35 (octa-core Cortex-A53 again, 4 2.3 GHZ cores and 4 1.8 GHZ cores). It has 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Both devices use the same exact GPU. So basically both the Orbit Player and the SensePlayer use the exact same SOC exce...

Prism is a library for sending speech to many different screen readers and TTS backends depending on what is installed, and in addition to just speaking to the system's sound output, some backends also support speak_to_memory, which returns the PCM audio data to a callback. However, on Linux there are no backends that support speak_to_memory, and I need that if I am going...

  For anyone interested in The Lord of the Rings, there is an amazing audiobook with music, sound effects, different voices for the characters, etc, all done by one person. It almost sounds like you're watching a movie even though its an audiobook. It was published for free by its creator, and I have been hosting it on my server for a while because the original website is hard to download from. I also fixed the ID3 tags to make media players organize the files correctly. https://lotr.emass...
