VoiceControl module

Hi, I have a problem with the module. The microphone and speaker work well. I do not understand why this happens. The error log:

Hi,
I was about to try this voice control modul to start/stop my music.
But I can’t uploade or record files to snowboy at the moment, maybe it is partly down…

But in the meantime I was triying to understand how to correctly install everything, but I think I’m not getting it.

Can somebody maybe put everything in correct order.
Where do I put the codes, what do I have to change in the mm-music-player module, where do I have to put the node_helper.js (what does it do), and so on…

In this topic there are several questions and also answers, but I would be great to put in in order and make a summary.

Thanks

GinSeng

@Jeff
Lets see if i can make a complete list for you.
Step 1. cd in your MagicMirror/module folder then git clone the modul ( https://github.com/alexyak/voicecontrol.git )
Step 2. cd in the voice module and install dependencies ( sudo apt-get install python-pyaudio python3-pyaudio sox )
Step 3. Create snowboy files and copy them into the ( im not sure which works i copied them in 3 placed) 1. voice control module 2. mm-music-player module and MagicMirror folder
Step 4. cd into your mm-music-player and sudo nano mm-music-player.js add following lines after this lines:
start: function() {
Log.info("Starting module: " + this.name);
},

->> Add this
notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender) {
if (notification === “PLAY”){
var playButton = document.getElementById(‘play-button’);
playButton.click();

if (notification === “STOP”){
var pauseButton = document.getElementById(‘pause-button’);
pauseButton.click();

then go down to

    playButton.className = "play";
    playButton.innerHTML = '<i class="fa fa-play" aria-hidden="true"></i>';

playButton.id = ‘play-button’;

    pauseButton.className = "pause";
    pauseButton.innerHTML = '<i class="fa fa-pause" aria-hidden="true"></i>';

pauseButton.id = ‘pause-button’;

Then cd in your MagicMirror config and sudo nano config.js

and add the following lines

{
module: ‘voicecontrol’,
position: ‘bottom_right’,
config: {
models: [
{
keyword: “play music”, // keyword
description:
file: “yourfile.pmdl”,
message: “PLAY”,
},
{
keyword: “stopmusic”, // keyword
description:
file: “yourfile.pmdl”,
message: “STOP”
},

This should be all.
If it doesn’t work, feel free to write me a PM.

Hi @GinSeng ,

How can I change the volume with the voice?

?¿?¿?¿?¿?
}

}

Thanks.

Thanks for the great instructions, but I think my mic isn’t working correctly :(

I think I have to order a new one first.

@Jeff hi, i wanted to share my Mirror with Family for individual Email on MM, can it be possible to use voice and access individual emails, making the previous person email hide and show the other member email

Is there a way to set a snowboy tolerance?
Because even tho my command is 5 words long it gets triggered all the time when I talk normally with a friend or watch a TV show.
