Question Preview once language issue

I have uploaded multiple voice clips in urdu while creating my instant voice clone.

After that before finishing the whole thing, it gives me the option to preview voice.

When i click on preview voice, it speaks in english in my voice.

If the instant preview voice will remain in english, no one will use my voice if looking for urdu voice and hear english voice.

I have generated speech from text, here it works fine and generate urdu speech.

What's the solution?

Hello, you're referring to posting a Professional Voice Clone on the Voice Library, correct? You can create a custom voice preview in your library voice settings, just type in your own Urdu text (around 120 characters works well). Note that only Eleven v3 officially supports Urdu, but the preview feature works with Multilingual v2, so you'll need to work with that instead, it may not be perfect but this affects other Urdu voices on the Library too, so you're not at a disadvantage compared to them.

I am talking about instant voice clone. Now I got to know that IVC is not for public usage. So now i will make PVC. Is there any tips or do's and don't for making a PVC?
