+# HuggingFace Spaces Deployment Fix
+
+## Issues Identified and Fixed
+
+### 1. Gradio JSON Schema Error
+**Error**: `TypeError: argument of type 'bool' is not iterable`
+
+**Root Cause**: The error occurred in Gradio's JSON schema processing when trying to check `if "const" in schema:` where `schema` was a boolean instead of a dictionary.
+
+**Fixes Applied**:
+- Updated Gradio version to a more stable release (4.20.0)
+- Simplified the interface using `gr.Interface` instead of complex `gr.Blocks`
+- Disabled example caching (`cache_examples=False`)
+- Disabled flagging (`allow_flagging="never"`)
+- Removed `share=True` parameter (not supported on HF Spaces)
+
+### 2. Import and Dependency Issues
+**Fixes Applied**:
+- Added robust fallback import system
+- Created dummy pipeline for testing when imports fail
+- Improved error handling throughout the application
+- Added proper sys.path management for src imports
+
+### 3. HuggingFace Spaces Compatibility
+**Fixes Applied**:
+- Set `share=False` (share links not supported on HF Spaces)
+- Used standard server configuration (`0.0.0.0:7860`)
+- Simplified interface structure
+- Added proper error boundaries
+
+## Files Modified
+
+1. **`app.py`** - Main deployment file with robust error handling
+2. **`app_deploy.py`** - Clean deployment version
+3. **`app_simple.py`** - Simplified alternative
+4. **`requirements.txt`** - Updated Gradio version
+5. **`deploy.py`** - Enhanced deployment script
+
+## Deployment Steps
+
+1. **Test Locally** (optional):
+   ```bash
+   python app.py
+   ```
+
+2. **Deploy to HuggingFace Spaces**:
+   ```bash
+   git add .
+   git commit -m "Fix Gradio schema errors and improve compatibility"
+   git push
+   ```
+
+## Key Changes Made
+
+### App Structure
+- Switched from `gr.Blocks` to `gr.Interface` for better compatibility
+- Simplified input/output definitions
+- Removed complex state management
+
+### Error Handling
+- Added comprehensive try-catch blocks
+- Created fallback pipeline for testing
+- Improved logging throughout
+
+### Dependencies
+- Pinned Gradio to stable version
+- Maintained all core ML dependencies
+- Added proper import fallbacks
+
+### Configuration
+- Disabled problematic features (share, caching, flagging)
+- Set proper server configuration for HF Spaces
+- Simplified launch parameters
+
+## Testing the Fix
+
+The fixed version should:
+1. ✅ Load without JSON schema errors
+2. ✅ Handle import failures gracefully
+3. ✅ Work on HuggingFace Spaces infrastructure
+4. ✅ Provide fallback functionality when models fail to load
+5. ✅ Display proper error messages to users
+
+## Backup Files
+
+- `app_original.py` - Your original application
+- `app_optimized.py` - The optimized version (fixed)
+- `app_simple.py` - Simplified version
+- `app_deploy.py` - Final deployment version
+
+## If Issues Persist
+
+1. Check HuggingFace Spaces logs for specific errors
+2. Verify all dependencies are properly installed
+3. Test with the simple version (`app_simple.py`)
+4. Contact HF support if infrastructure issues persist
+
+The main fix addresses the Gradio JSON schema error by simplifying the interface structure and using compatible Gradio features.

-# High-Performance Armenian Text-to-Speech
-
-This is an **optimized version** of SpeechT5 for Armenian language synthesis, featuring:
-
-### 🚀 **Performance Optimizations**
-- **Intelligent Text Chunking**: Handles long texts by splitting them intelligently at sentence boundaries
-- **Caching**: Translation and embedding caching for faster repeated requests
-- **Mixed Precision**: GPU optimization with FP16 inference when available
-- **Crossfading**: Smooth audio transitions between chunks for natural-sounding longer texts
-
-### 🎯 **Advanced Features**
-- **Smart Text Processing**: Automatic number-to-word conversion with Armenian translation
-- **Audio Post-Processing**: Noise gating, normalization, and dynamic range optimization
-- **Robust Error Handling**: Graceful fallbacks and comprehensive logging
-- **Real-time Performance Monitoring**: Track processing times and system health
-
-### 📝 **Usage Tips**
-- **Short texts** (< 200 chars): Processed directly for maximum speed
-- **Long texts**: Automatically chunked with overlap for seamless audio
-- **Numbers**: Automatically converted to Armenian words
-- **Performance**: Enable chunking for texts longer than a few sentences
-
-### 🎵 **Audio Quality**
-- Sample Rate: 16 kHz
-- Optimized for natural prosody and clear pronunciation
-- Cross-fade transitions for multi-chunk synthesis
-
-The model was trained on short clips (5-20s) but uses advanced algorithms to handle longer texts effectively.
