I’ve been made aware that the code I’ve written to access text-to-speech from ElevenLabs API is no longer working.

I’ve tested it and it seems that the CORS-Proxy that is being used in ai-character-chat currently doens’t allow POST methods (which is being used to ‘post’ the text to be ‘spoken’ in ElevenLabs).

Not a major/priority issue but might be nice to be fixed. I also wonder how many are using text to speech (even just using the Speech Synthesis code) in the ai-character-chat…

    Hmm, for whatever reason, that works fine for me. That said, with a VPN enabled, the response is has the 401 Unauthorized status with the following JSON instead of the audio:

    {
  "detail": {
    "status": "detected_unusual_activity",
    "message": "Unusual activity detected. Free Tier usage disabled..."
  }
}

    What do you see in the network panel in devtools when it doesn’t work?

      Something like that too. Though, I don’t have any VPN enabled (on Microsoft Edge, Windows 10), I guess they are quite limiting the free tier API now i.e. there is a limit to consecutive requests.
