Fix Clipchamp Text-to-Speech Controls Stuck on Loading
Question details
The user is unable to use the text-to-speech feature in Clipchamp because the necessary voice configuration fields will not load.
- Product
- Clipchamp
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Attempting to generate voiceovers using the text-to-speech tool within a video project.
- Observed behavior
- The Language and Voice dropdown fields remain disabled and continuously display a 'Loading' status, preventing the user from previewing or saving the text.
Ensure your device has a stable internet connection, as Clipchamp requires online access to fetch text-to-speech languages and voice models.
Test Web and Desktop Versions to Isolate the Issue
Determine if the loading issue is isolated to the desktop application or affects your entire Clipchamp account.
Clipchamp operates on both a web browser and a standalone desktop application. Comparing the two can help pinpoint whether the application cache is corrupted or if there is a broader service issue.
Open your web browser, navigate to app.clipchamp.com, and sign in to your account. Open a project and attempt to use the text-to-speech feature.
If the text-to-speech feature works in the web version but not the desktop app, open the Microsoft Store, navigate to your Library, and click 'Get updates' to ensure Clipchamp is up to date.
If updating does not resolve the issue in the client, uninstall Clipchamp via Windows Settings > Apps, then reinstall it from the Microsoft Store.
If the Language and Voice fields are stuck on 'Loading' in both the web and desktop versions, contact official Clipchamp support through the Microsoft Support portal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Clipchamp text-to-speech taking so long to load?
This usually happens due to a weak internet connection, temporary server outages at Microsoft, or an outdated desktop client that fails to connect to the cloud voice libraries.
Can I use Clipchamp's text-to-speech feature offline?
No. Clipchamp's text-to-speech functionality relies on cloud-based AI services, meaning an active internet connection is strictly required to generate and preview audio.
How do I clear the cache for the Clipchamp desktop app?
You can reset or repair the desktop app by going to Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps, locating Clipchamp, clicking the three dots, selecting 'Advanced options', and clicking 'Repair' or 'Reset'.
