The speech body accepts seed, max_new_tokens, temperature, top_k,
top_p, and repetition_penalty. Unset fields keep the engine defaults,
a temperature of zero selects greedy decoding, and the subtalker
mirrors the talker knobs. A fixed seed makes a request reproducible.
POST /v1/voices registers a voice from a WAV extracted server side
through qt_extract_voice_ref or from pre extracted .spk and .rvq
latents taken verbatim, DELETE drops it and GET lists it alongside the
model speakers. A registered voice wins over a speaker of the same
name and injects the reference latents into qt_tts_params, ref_text
present selects ICL clone mode. The registry lives in process RAM
under the synthesis mutex, so registration and lookups never race a
running synthesis. The audio and rvq readers gain buffer variants
factored from the file paths. The README and the architecture
document catch up on the streaming decode, the hidden bridge, and the
server endpoints.
qwen-codec --talker extracts the speaker embedding (.spk, raw f32)
and the ICL codes (.rvq) in one pass, encode truncated to the hop
boundary conforming to the --ref-wav path. qwen-tts loads them via
--ref-spk / --ref-rvq and skips the speaker encoder and codec encode
on every synthesis: TTFA 205 ms -> 89 ms. Extends qt_tts_params with
ABI v2 latent fields, adds qt_num_codebooks(), ships freeman.spk +
freeman.rvq and switches clone scripts to the latent path. Output is
bit-identical to the raw path at fixed seed.
