MMM-Assistantmk2 and MMM-Hotword not picking up
-
I just installed MMM-Hotword, and used this config
{ module: "MMM-Hotword", config: { autostart:true, autorestart: true }
and it works fine…
i did have a little snowboy rebuild work to do but documented in the hotword install doc… -
@sdetweil I can try removing the space and hope to works, and I had to do the snowboy rebuild already as it said I had an error when I tried to start magicmirror, so that should be okay, so I’ll try deleting the space and if it doesn’t work I will try to rebuild snowboy and try again and I’ll get back to you. Thanks!!
-
@sdetweil is that your config for magicmirror or in the config file or hotword?
-
@sdetweil I tried getting rid of the space, I tried adding autorestart=true on both configs, and still no luck :/
-
@jmartin1009 just the config for hotword.

Hello,
I agree with Sam :
You need to remove the space at both places.
1st in MMM-AssistantMk2module: "MMM-AssistantMk2", position: "top_bar", config: { record: { recordProgram : "arecord", device : "plughw:1,0",
And as well in
module: "MMM-Hotword", config: { record: { recordProgram : "arecord", device : "plughw:1,0",
If that still doesn’t work try just :
plughw:1As well you should check in the audio properties that your mic have enough gain.
you can check this by typing
alsamixer
in command linehope this helps

@ejay-ibm also is there anyway to change the gain or whatever? I went to alsamixer and went to the capture section and the bar doesn’t move or anything when I speak into my mic. Not sure if anything is supposed to happen but it says both L and R capture are the 100, not sure what that means.
-
@ejay-ibm I also changed it so the sauce wasn’t there and I made it so it said plughw:1 in all of them, but still nothing

This is my MMM-Hotword config.js part :
{ module: "MMM-Hotword", config: { snowboy: [ /* { "hotwords": "smartmirror", "file": "resources/models/smart_mirror.umdl", "sensitivity": "0.5" }, */ { hotwords: "alexa", file: "resources/models/alexa.umdl", sensitivity: "0.6" }, { file: "resources/models/jarvis.umdl", sensitivity: "0.6,0.60", hotwords: ["jarvis", "jarvis"] } ], record: { sampleRate: 16000, threshold: 0.5, thresholdStart: null, thresholdEnd: null, silence: 1, verbose: false, recordProgram: "arecord", device: "plughw:1" }, autostart: true, autorestart: true, notifications: { PAUSE: "HOTWORD_PAUSE", RESUME: "HOTWORD_RESUME", LISTENING: "HOTWORD_LISTENING", SLEEPING: "HOTWORD_SLEEPING", ERROR: "HOTWORD_ERROR" }, onDetected: { notification: function(payload) { return "ASSISTANT_ACTIVATE"; }, payload: function(payload) { return { profile: payload.hotword }; } } } },
You can give it a try .
