@Porkiddo said in MMM-voice:

Any luck with the ERROR message near the microphone? I have the same and no idea what to do next.

Done, I just restart npm and the error is gone

thanks to @strawberry-3-141 the module works now very good! Hopefully the other module developer will add the voice function!

I had a problem with this module too. My first problem was to solve the issue with the usb soundcard. Then i insert the debug line in the config and get some more informations. Now, i say magic mirror and the microphone is blinking and i can say some keywords like HIDE ALL MODULES, and i can see, the module understand me correctly, but do nothing… Anybody know why?

The module works very good! I’m Spanish and I have had to modify some words to improve the results.
But, I’ve a question:
I want use only the VOICE module. It’s possible to predefine that module when MagicMirror starts?

Thanks!

@ealfaror Currently it’s not supported. If you want to change it https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-voice/blob/f9eb4cd4bde5c64ef894e8625250c4092aa0d4a7/node_helper.js#L18 this is were you need to change it mode: "VOICE". But keep in mind that manual changes can make trouble by a module update

@strawberry-3.141 Thanks! I’ve changed it and it works!
I hope I’ll remember it when the module updates. :)

I am not sure what I am missing/doing wrong. I have gotten everything installed and working after several attempts. I enabled debugging so I could see what it was capturing. Magic mirror activated microphone just fine. I could see the text below it that it was recognising, but if I said hide, or hide modules. It won’t hide any modules.

@Allred sounds like you didn’t enter the voice mode first

MAGIC MIRROR VOICE HIDE MODULES will activate the microphone, switch to voice mode and performs the task hide modules.

For every following command in the voice mode you have to say

MAGIC MIRROR SHOW MODULES or when the microphone is already active just SHOW MODULES until you switch into another mode, then you would have to say voice again

What do I need?
Do I need a specific microphone?
If I get a webcam with a built in microphone, will that work?
If the webcam microphone will work, which webcam do you recommend?

I just want to have everything I need before I try anything, thanks.

@Mykle1 i’m just using a usb microphone, never tried a buil in mic of a webcam because i don’t have one
