Hello,
the OH2 Squeezebox binding is confusing me:
In the Squeezeserver Thing it clearly says:
Language to use when using Google speech
But there is no place to set the ttsurl.
Neither did i find any example how to access Google speech.
In OH1.8 i could set this value to my local TTS and use squeezeboxspeak.
Everything else works quite OK, but loosing TTS would really suck 
Could somebody shine some light on this?
Many thanks in advance,
Best Regards,

I just recently added Audiosink and Notification functionality to the OH2 squeezebox binding. See here.

Hello Mark,
thanks, I’ve seen that. Maybe I am missing the obvious…but how/where would i enter my TTS service?
It’s accessed as: http://my-ip/tts.php?msg=%s
And secondly, if i may add one more question:
My events.log gets flooded with messages that the sqeezeboxes Title items rapidly change from the actual title to the remotetitle and back; looks like so:
2017-02-26 09:30:49.856 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeKuecheTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
2017-02-26 09:30:49.862 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeKuecheTitle changed from Catch & release to HR 3
2017-02-26 09:30:51.756 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeWoZiTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
2017-02-26 09:30:51.762 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeWoZiTitle changed from Catch & release to HR 3
2017-02-26 09:30:56.918 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeBadTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
2017-02-26 09:30:56.921 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeBadTitle changed from Catch & release to HR 3
2017-02-26 09:30:59.874 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeKuecheTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
2017-02-26 09:30:59.878 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeKuecheTitle changed from Catch & release to HR 3
2017-02-26 09:31:01.774 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeWoZiTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
2017-02-26 09:31:01.779 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeWoZiTitle changed from Catch & release to HR 3
2017-02-26 09:31:06.935 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - squeezeBadTitle changed from HR 3 to Catch & release
The remotetitle item does not get any update and stays empty. Any idea what is wrong with that?
Many thanks in advance,

The title spamming issue was fixed in the same PR that added Audiosink functionality. If you are seeing the title spamming the event log, then you definitely are running a version that doesn’t include audiosink.
You need to update to the latest snapshot (nightly) version of the squeezebox binding.
Indeed i went with the “Stable” Release. I figured that better on a total fresh install. Would you recommend changing to the Snapshot release for the whole install, or just replace the binding jar with the latest available?
Edit: OK so i changed to the Snapshot release; now Title/Artist display nicely and i do have My Sqheezeboxes as Audio Sinks. Kewl.
But I still can’t figure out how to use my TTS.
Glad you got it working.
There was a thread on Google TTS on this forum a while back. I think this was it.
Uh…OK, I’ve read through all this, but it leaves me just as clueless as before.
This post says solved:
But it’s not clear if this applies to OH2, and if it does, it does not elaborate as to where to make this entry.
Sorry I can’t be of much help here. You might want to change the title of this topic, or open a new topic specifically on Google TTS.
Ok, I’ll open a new topic then.
Thanks for helping !
