Common edge-tts Errors | pyVideoTrans-Open Source Video Translation Tool -pyvideotrans.com github.com/jianchang512/pyvideotrans

"Current IP is restricted, please use a proxy" "Number of failed voiceovers exceeds 1/3"

Errors like the above generally occur during the voiceover stage, and specifically when using the "edgeTTS" voiceover channel. This is Microsoft's TTS service API used for the "Read Aloud" function in the Edge browser. It's free to use, but recently it seems there have been new rate-limiting measures. A large number of requests from the same IP in a short period will trigger a 403 block, resulting in errors.

How to solve it?

First: Check if there is an updated patch package. If there is, download and overwrite the existing installation, then test if the problem is resolved.

Second: If you know what a proxy/VPN/firewall is, use it and enter the HTTP proxy address into the "Network Proxy" text box.

Third: As shown below, click "Voiceover Channel" and in the pop-up window, change the concurrency to 1 and the pause to 5. Reduce the voiceover speed to reduce errors.

Fourth: If the above methods do not solve the problem, you can change to another voiceover channel.

For example, free voiceover services include "GPT-SoVITS", "ChatTTS", "F5-TTS", "CosyVoice", etc. Deploy the corresponding project locally. There will be corresponding tutorial links when you open the settings box.

Or use paid online APIs, such as 302.AI, ByteDance Volcano Speech Synthesis, OpenAI-TTS, etc.

For stability, commercial-grade APIs are the most suitable. Unless your machine has powerful performance, you can also use local translation.
