Another day, another #eloquence release for #NVDA 64-bit:v9: proof that begging for contributions worksThis feature packed release is thanks to regular contributor titet11, and new contributor crucio2211!

@fastfinge Some weird stuff is going on in the new Eloquence update. As I updated the Community Dictionary, something I always do after installing each new Eloquence release, I noticed that most of the corrected pronunciations don't work. I checked the Root dictionary, and noticed that it's now a malformed combination of both Community and Alternative dictionaries. So this needs an investigation. Moreover, as I checked for Eloquence updates from the Settings pannel, I get the following error message:
Update manager not found. Please reinstall the add-on.@amir Yup. You have to delete your old dictionary file the first time you update. -

v9: proof that begging for contributions works
This feature packed release is thanks to regular contributor titet11, and new contributor crucio2211! Here's what's new:
• Smart dictionary updates: Preserves user's custom dictionary entries during updates, Only adds new words, prevents duplicates, and Auto-removes accents for compatibility (é→e, ñ→n). It also auto-downloads new language dictionaries. (Thanks crucio2211)
• Enhanced Pause Control (from IBMTTS): Three pause modes for better speech rhythm. Mode 0: Do not shorten, Mode 1: Shorten at end only, Mode 2: Shorten all pauses. (once again thanks to crucio2211)
• One-click setup for Windows logon/UAC screen support: now you can click a copy helper button in the eloquence settings category, meaning manual copying is no longer required. (Still from crucio2211 who is on fire)
• Ability to check for updates manually (thanks to crucio2211)
• fixes to voice pitch when switching languages (thanks to eloquence_64 regular titet11)
• correctly sets pitch for voices other than the default (thanks to titet11)
• makes sure pitch never goes out of the range allowed by eloquence (thanks titet11)
• Multiple other fixes to pitch control (thanks titet11)
github.com/fastfinge/eloquence_64/releases/tag/v9@fastfinge Thanks for adding the pause thing.

github.com/fastfinge/eloquence_64/releases/tag/v9@KaraLG84 @fastfinge Hey. There seem to be two different Eloquence packages out there. I had one working and, after installing today's version, Eloquence no longer appears as an option in Preferences > Settings > Speech. Could anyone give me any special tips I need to follow besides standard addon install?

@darrell73 @KaraLG84 If you are still on 32-bit NVDA, you must use this addon: github.com/pumper42nickel/eloquence_threshold -

@fastfinge @KaraLG84 Yikes!!! I guess I just assumed I was already on 64-bit NVDA... Hmm. I'm checking on nvaccess.org is the 64-bit version a secret?

@fastfinge @KaraLG84 Wow! I can't believe I missed this detail. Thanks for setting me straight.

@TomGrant91 yes, that will be fixed in the next release. I hadn’t realized a file was missing. -

@fastfinge Oh! It's a bug in the latest release. I manually replaced the dictionaries, and mispronunciations went away. I think it's not a good idea to combine and mix pronunciation dictionaries.

@amir I'm trying to avoid overwriting other people's customizations, is the thing. If you add a word yourself, it should stay, and not get replaced. And the bug happens even when all dictionaries are deleted. It's something about how I download the file. -
