Hi,

I followed installation step by step until configuration part. credentials works fine when test.js ran.

Once reboot, i initially had blank screen but once electron build completed, i have mic icon on MM but unable to activate google assistant. I am using default config.js with single default profile.

I am using HDMI as output from TV which confirmed working after forcing HDMI output via raspi-config.

As input, I use USB Mini Microphone which confirmed after command “arecord -l” ran.

Do i need to install MMM-Hotword & MMM-NotificationTrigger too?

Unless using other awakener or touchscreen, you need MMM-Hotword &MMM-NotificationTrigger.

Apparently my microphone was not setup correctly. without MMM-Hotword and MMM-NotificationTrigger, it works but i have manually click the mic icon on every interaction with GA.

All i need is to use the hotword module to trigger the GA. The sample config file is too complicated for me and i don’t use IFTTT, GAction, etc.

Please help.

Sean, thanks for the help and patience, finally managed to work out the issue.

it was mainly with improper setting on .asoundrc and config.js

This is hands down the best voice recognition with visual there is.

One small thing I noticed is the youtube video opened sometimes throw “invalid parameter”. Could it be default youtube parameter on config.js?

@komodoteler Most of those cases are, “Not allowed playing on ‘embeded player(out of youtube)’ by Authorities”.

You can skip that part or select whatever you want.
That is also whatever you want. Usually, I set as “TV”. (because it definitely has screen to display something)

Finally, Got the microphone icon in my mirror. Didn’t detect the voice yet I still have to install mmm-hotword.
But I can ask one question by click the microphone icon and see the pop-up.

I use hdmi on my tv as well. Still no sound.

I will install mmm-hotword and test.

Also the mmm-gaction if it make the mirror better.

I will keep you update and might need your help if I got struck in some part.

Thank you very much Mr.Sean.
