Assistant Error

[Chris]

Hello,
I am trying to run this module but I am having problems.

Indeed I installed it by following all your previous indications.

The mirror is launched correctly and I have the beep module start.

If I call the module with the keyword, it triggers. I ask my question and I only have a hatched voice in response.
I did not have any problems of this type with open-jarvis which is also based on snowboy.
I of course neutralize open jarvis to avoid conflicts on the sound card.

I think I missed a step on the setup.

The config.stt.auth.json file is placed in the resources folder or in the MMM-Assistant folder?

When I go on the google developer console, I see requests for the google assistant API but no requests for Google Cloud Speech API.

I add my boot log:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start dev

> magicmirror@2.2.1 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh run-start.sh "dev"

Hoping you can help me,

@sean is it possible you can elaborate on these settings in config? I only want to use Google assistant, so have commented out the “MIRROR” hotword, but sometime the MIC picks up on words that are not like my trained model, and sits on the assistant logo waiting for something, and there’s no way to get out of it without restarting the mirror. ie, these settings in particular:

sensitivity:

        {
          file: "resources/google.pmdl",
          sensitivity: 0.7,
          hotwords : "ASSISTANT" //One of models should be "ASSISTANT"
        }

silence and verbose:

    record: {
      threshold: 0, //Ignore this. I think you don't need to change this.
      verbose:false, //true for checking recording status.
      recordProgram: 'arecord', //You can use 'rec', 'sox'. But I recommend use 'arecord'.
      silence: 2.0 //Ignore this. I think you don't need to change this.
    },

Thanks again!

Just wanted to repost here, @sean thanks and got it going. This is an INCREDIBLE module and thank you. My problem was with my MIC after setup. If anyone else is coming across this, this link here helped to get my MIC setup properly:

Great module @sean absolutely incredible! Thanks

Hello,

I still have problems to use despite several unsuccessful attempts.

Could you detail the installation procedure you used?

Thank you in advance,

Frankly, I have also pmdl problem. When I use umdl, everything is ok. But, pmdl is not worked properly, I don’t know why.

@shep99 Can you please post your ALSA config?

cat ~/.asoundrc
cat /proc/asound/modules
cat /proc/asound/devices

Thanks.

Just want to tell everyone that this module works very well.
I had some initial compile issues and trying to get the correct GA authentication, but after that it worked.

Now, I’m looking at Alexa, since I’d like both Alexa and GA + MM working.
Please see the github issue for solution in case you missed it.

@sean @shep99 @acogkenf

Hello I have solved this problem this way.

“npm install --runtime=electron --target=YOUR_ELECTRON_VERSION”

Specify the environment and version and you can load grpc in proper way
