Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
Mic keeps smapping on and off
-
@alyx deleting a module is removing it’s folder
if you don’t reference it in config.js, then it’s effectively removed.npm install finds libraries needed by the module.
but it u delete the module folder, those are removed too. -
@sdetweil Ah ok thanks for confirming.
I actually did a fresh install on a fresh OS. Still experiencing the same issue. I only have the modules I know I need also.
I have:
Made sure power saving is off for the usb ports
Made the input im using default
configured my .asoundrc file
installed pulse GUI to view and make changesThe Module is MMM-Hello-Mirror, I went to the issues tab and it seems the dev has never really been active past the initial post…
Its weird how pulse is having that popping issue but in Mint ( my distro) the sound settings are saying nothing is recording…
-
@alyx it looks like hello mirror is using the browser mic connection to record audio.
all the other voice assistants drop down to recording audio outside the browser. I don’t know the reasons, long before my time
yes, you’ll see lots of modules no longer maintained. I’ve been here 4 years now and this is the 1st time I’ve heard of this module
-
@sdetweil yes thats it its comes up as chromium input, is there a way to change this? Its happening to all the voice assistants.
I assumed that would be the case with the modules, I’m kinda desperate on just getting the voice commands working although
-
@alyx that module depends on browser audio recording. it doesn’t have any mechanism to do it otherwise
-
@sdetweil ah ok, would there be a direction you can point me to? Ive been working on this for over a week now with no luck sadly.
-
@alyx what do you want to do with voice commands?
-
@sdetweil only a few thing such as turn off screen and also communicate with another module MMM-SelfieShoot
-
@alyx ok, MMM-GoogleAssistant (by bugsounet) is the only one that I know that can let you add for selfie
-
@sdetweil ah I wouldn’t have google assistant to make it work sadly…
Would t not work anyways if I cant the request via a notification?
