  • You can now voice your subtitle files! Simply add .srt, .ass or .vtt files to generate timed audio. Alternatively, add a text file with timestamps in HH:MM:SS or HH:MM:SS,ms format to generate audio that matches the timestamps. See here for detailed instructions.
    • New option: "Use silent gaps between subtitles": Prevents unnecessary audio speed-up by letting speech continue into the silent gaps between subtitles.
    • New option: "Subtitle speed adjustment method": Choose how to speed up audio when needed:
      • TTS Regeneration (better quality): Re-generates the audio at a faster speed for more natural sound.
      • FFmpeg Time-stretch (better speed): Quickly speeds up the generated audio.
  • Added support for embedding cover images in M4B files. Abogen now automatically extracts cover images from EPUB and PDF files. You can also manually specify a cover image using the <<METADATA_COVER_PATH:path>> tag in your text file. (To prevent MPV from showing the cover image, you can add audio-display=no to your MPV config file.)
  • Fixed [WinError 1114] A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed error on Windows, pre-loading PyTorch DLLs before initializing PyQt6 to avoid DLL initialization errors, mentioned in [#98] by @ephr0n.
  • Potential fix for CUDA GPU is not available issue, by ensuring PyTorch is installed correctly with CUDA support on Windows using the installer script.
  • Improvements in code and documentation.
