Okay...
The Language is spoken in Africa (Nigeria) but it is part of the Niger Congo Language Family it is called "Ibibio". We are just capturing the language for the first time digitally . We will try to get it to 60k Hours for a start. What i saw was that if the language is not captured in Flan T5 then the training of Parler TTS should be done from scratch; what's your intuition on this.

Hi.. this is amazing thanks for this
I want to use some advice from you for an endangered/low resource Language (35hrs) which is not too bad for such class of Language
Is it a really stringent that it must be meet this criteria ( minimum: 100 hours of audio (up to 1000 hours for optimal results))
I don't hope for perfection for a start and how do I handle cases where my tokenizer is not captured in FlanT5. Thanks
