<p dir="auto">I greatly appreciate the integration of the Text-to-Speech (TTS) function within the browser, particularly the "Listen" button feature used in AI interfaces (like Gemini, etc.). It is a valuable tool for accessibility and user comfort.</p>
<p dir="auto">To further enhance this feature, I would like to suggest the addition of simple customization options, directly accessible within the Opera interface or settings.</p>
<p dir="auto">Desired TTS Options:</p>
<p dir="auto">Voice Selection: Offer a choice between at least two high-quality TTS voices (e.g., a male and a female voice) for each language.</p>
<p dir="auto">Rendering Settings: Integrate simple graduated controls to modify the speed and pitch of the voice.</p>
<p dir="auto">Justification:</p>
<p dir="auto">Currently, the voice selection is fixed to a single default synthetic voice (which is male for the French language). This limitation forces users who want a different voice or a different pace to resort to third-party extensions. These extensions often offer lower audio quality and complicate the user experience (requiring manual text selection, extra clicks).</p>
<p dir="auto">A simple, native setting like this would significantly improve the comfort, personalization, and accessibility of your AI-based tools and general webpage reading functionality.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thank you in advance for considering this suggestion.</p>
<p dir="auto">Sincerely.</p>
