Ok thanks for your reply. So I have to install Hotword and AssistantMk2 in V3. I have to remove the older before ?
Thanks!

For AMK2, backup your credentials.json and profiles. Then, remove old one, reinstall freshly. (Don’t worry, It becomes easier with new installer)
For Hotword, I think git pull would be enough, but if you want, reinstall freshly.

@Sean Thanks! I test and I will tell you if everithings it’s okay!

Hi Huys, I am trying to follow this guide however I have trouble finding some of the folders after the install.

In Step 5: The path ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Hotword/node_modules/snowboy does not exist. I found Snowboy in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Hotword/snowboy instead.

In Step 5 after installing the assistant, I cannot find the folder scripts in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2 to make them executable.

Does anyone have an idea why that could be? I am running the latest Rasbian Buster distribution.

Best Regards

MM and modules are changed often. So In some cases; following original instruction would be another way.

For MMM-Hotword and MMM-AssistantMk2, It was updated recently… (almost 1~2 months ago). Go to each repository, Read the docs, and follow the instruction to install.

Change your configuration. probably you are using old ones for both modules.

@Sean
I use this, but I don’t know if it’s okay

			{
			module: "MMM-Hotword",
			config: {
				record: {
					recordProgram : "arecord",  
					device        : "plughw:1"
				},
				autostart:true,
				onDetected: {
					notification: (payload) => {
					return "ASSISTANT_ACTIVATE"
					},
					payload: (payload) => {
						return {
						  profile: payload.hotword
						}
					}
				},
			},
		},
			{
			  module: "MMM-AssistantMk2",
			  position: "fullscreen_above",
			  config: {
				ui: "Fullscreen",
				assistantConfig: {
				  latitude: 45.56667,
				  longitude: 5.93333,
				},
				micConfig: { // put there configuration generated by auto-installer
				  recorder: "arecord",
				  device: "plughw:1",
				},
				recipes: [ "with-MMM-Hotword.js" ],
				profiles: {
				  "default": {
					profileFile: "default.json",
					lang: "en-US"
				  }
				},

I said both modules. :) Reconfigure Hotword also. Follow the instructions of wiki. (There might be for V3 configuration sample somewhere)
