is s peech possible in in Kodi 17.0?

[Peter Vágner]

Hello,

Yes, this is possible  but there is an additional step needed to enable 
the addon since Kodi 17.
Assumed you have done all that Kyle has recommended i.e. created the 
folder structure ~/.kodi/addons and unzipped service.xbmc.tts in there 
you also need to do the following.
- Start kodi and arrow around the home screen. Make sure you can hear 
clicking sound as you are navigating on the Kodi home screen.
- Now close kodi by pressing letter s followed by the enter key or if 
you are on the desktop you can also press alt+F4.
- Now use sqlite3 commandline to poke at the database file 
~/.kodi/userdata/Database/Addons27.db
- When you can see sqlite prompt type in the following:
UPDATE installed SET enabled=1 WHERE addonID='service.xbmc.tts';
- Now you are done editing sqlite database just exit out of sqlite by 
typing in
.q
- Now start Kodi and enjoy the Kodi screen reader addon.

Greetings

Peter
