Why is it so hard to get this working?

Maybe this will help you. It has helped a few people get up and running.

Assuming you installed the dependencies as per the readme. At the end of the dependencies installation is a readout for your microphone entry in the config.js. You can see this readout again. in your terminal type: cat /proc/asound/cards. You can verify your microphone this way.

And this should remove the error that you are receiving. Close all your terminals.
Open a new terminal.
type: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib and Enter

Then type: sudo ldconfig and Enter

Now try it. Good luck

Glad you got it working. :-)

Hi folks, usually don’t post. Just read a lot. But I am a lil over my head here. ASE Certified Master Mechanic here, but dang this coding is tough!! This module works fantasic. However I would like to change this ( /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -p && sudo chvt 6 && sudo chvt 7 ) to this ( /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd display_power 1 ) and ( /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o’, null ) to this ( /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0 ) I just want the tv to go off, I don’t want the no signal or light off the screen to show up. Is this even possible. Thanks in advance for any help!!

@Cyberdale008 sure it is…just to the node_helper and change it.

Look for these lines :

} else if (/(WAKE)/g.test(data) && /(UP)/g.test(data)) {
           exec('/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -p && sudo chvt 6 && sudo chvt 7', null);
           this.hdmi = true;
       } else if (/(GO)/g.test(data) && /(SLEEP)/g.test(data)) {
           exec('/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o', null);

and make your changes :)

@strawberrxyy 3.141

I tried to change the language to german / german voice recognition with some informations from here:
https://mycroft.ai/documentation/language-support/german/
but my skills a not good enough to get it working.

3 more questions:
Is there a command for commandline to test Pocketsphinx and its components, so maybe i can find out where i went in the wrong direction.

Do i need for changing the language model only have to download certain files and bring them in the right structure or do i have to compile something afterwards?

Where could i change the path to other language models in MMM-voice, i only found links to the .lm an .dic file but not to the .../model/en-us/ structure.

@AxLed

1. pocketsphinx_continuous
2. You need to look for instructions where you downloaded those files
3. you can specify the language model with the option -hmm in the node dependencie pocketsphinx-continuous-node

In case you get it running in German can you share it?
could really use this as well :)

@maxbachmann even if he’s able to get german running are the commands and supported modules only working with english, to make this possible there is a big effort necessary, that I cannot put in anymore

prs are highly welcome for this, but make sure to discuss possible implementations upfront, to avoid getting the pull request rejected

[maxbachmann]

oh I mean that in case he manages it he could share it :)
I will probably go with the english voice control for now because there are already many working modules out there
