No, but Roku does have TTS installed as well, no doubt software powered.

I don't have a Roku that does this, but some cable providers offer the Roku for accessibility, such as Time Warner/Spectrum. What I've heard about the Roku is that you cannot enter the specific channel number, you have to arrow to it, or as you mentioned, speak to it. Glenn

What I said is that Rocku does not read tts as a screen reader. Rocku has one of it's remotes that does have speech recognition, you tell it what channel to go to or to turn the television on or off. You do not have a screen display where you can maneuver to hear the text, as on your computer. -----Original Message----- From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Glenn / Lenny Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2020 7:10 PM To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Re: Dectalk software speech or its successor? Speech recognition is talking to a device, like Amazon Echo. TTS is text to speech, like Jaws and other screenreaders. Phones use both TTS and speech recognition.
