I have gone through the forum and can’t find a specific solution. I just can’t install pidog.tts and can’t understand why that would be.

Difficult for me to analyse without more debug information, I’m not an expert. Sunfounder will be able to help when they return after the weekend. I assume you’ve created and enabled the venv successfully with the use system libraries options etc.

I think I’ve installed everything requested prior to this stage.
It just keeps saying pydog.tts module not avaliable and I can find no way of installing it.

I’m also having trouble getting Pico2Wave or Espeak working on my Pidog 2 with a Raspberry Pi 4. I can’t get it to work; any suggestions?

File “/home/pi/pidog/examples/test_tts_espeak.py”, line 1, in

from pidog.tts import Espeak
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘pidog.tts’

To help us troubleshoot, please confirm two things:

Reinstall all libraries from this guide first, then try your project again: 5. Install All the Modules(Important) — SunFounder PiDog Kit 1.0 documentation

Check your library versions by running these commands and tell us the output:

cat /usr/local/lib/python3.13/dist-packages/robot_hat/version.py
Expected Output: _version_ = ‘2.5.1’

Check Pidog Version:
cat /usr/local/lib/python3.13/dist-packages/pidog/version.py
Expected Output: _version_ = “1.3.10a1”

Please report the results back to us.

Run this command to check the version of your Pidog:
