Hello-Lucy

Yes, I am using a rpi 3b+. I know that I must be patient during commands because of the usb mic but the problem is that I have to say my keyword more than 10 times to start flashing the mic icon. After that all modules show/hide quite well and quick. Basically I did a fresh install of raspbian and MM on new 32GB SD card, hoping that it will work better but I have the same problem. It just doesn’t hear the keyword. Also I would like to ask you if it is possible the Say, ‘Hello Lucy’ message.

check the logs… they should give you an idea what happened. What I was confronted with was a) missing variables (LD_LIBRARY_PATH= and PKG_CONFIG_PATH=). They should be added by the installation script (assuming you chose the automatic install.
After solving this issue I had b) a DEVICE BUSY due to the fact that pulseaudio was already ‘sitting’ on my microphone.

I would guess that is due to the Pi’s performance and the latency introduced by the use of your USB mic. Also, a vocal accent while speaking English commands to Lucy seem to be a problem. I’ve a friend in Norway who speaks English very well but Lucy has a problem with his Norwegian accent.

With that said, I can’t help you with performance issues other than to suggest limiting or eliminating those modules that have high resource demands.

Also I would like to ask you if it is possible the Say, ‘Hello Lucy’ message.

I don’t understand the question, I’m sorry.

Sorry I didn’t write it right. I would like to ask you if it is possible to change the Say, ‘Hello Lucy’ message to something mine. As for the mic’s latency I will buy a better one and see the difference. Thank you for your tips and “Hello Lucy” :winking_face:

@anthony yes, Hello_Lucy is a customized MMM-Voice… in the MMM-Voice readme it says

Config Options
Option	Default	Description
microphone	REQUIRED	Id of microphone shown in the installer.
keyword	'MAGIC MIRROR'	Keyword the mirror starts to listen. IMPORTANT: Only UPPERCASE Letters
timeout	15	time the keyword should be active without saying something

@sdetweil
This is the keyword. I already have changed that. I want to change the message which appears when MM starts. Now it say: Say ‘Hello Lucy’. I want to change it to Say, ‘Magic Mirror’.

@anthony I use Hello Lucy and don’t see that… do you have EasyPics installed too? I do not.

@anthony change

 mode: 'Say, "Hello Lucy"',

in MMM-voice.js

@mash55
I have already tried that but the message remains the same in the screen.

MagicMirror/modules/MMM-voice/translations/en.json

Open the en.json file with a text editor.

Line 3: "NO_MODE": "Say, 'Hello Lucy'",

change to

"NO_MODE": "Say, 'Magic Mirror'",
