      I have implemented MM-Assistant from https://github.com/eouia/MMM-Assistant/wiki and followed the installation process.

      When I reaches 3-2) .pmdl for snowboy hotword detection. I skip snowboy and continue part 4 - “Step 4. Post Installation”

      I added the follow script in config/config.js

      {
        module: 'MMM-Assistant',
        position: 'bottom_left',
        config: {
          stt: {
            auth: [
              {
                projectId:'', //REQUIRED
                keyFilename: '' //REQUIRED
              },
            ]
          }
        }
      },
      

      And when I start running the MagicMirror, the entire is blank in black. Wanted to do a reversal to the script but couldn’t. Despite Ctrl+Q or reboot, I could not get to Raspbian.

      Please help. Thanks

        @werdnllac I read somewhere and notice there is a need to install a sound card in RPI in order for the Microphone to work.

        Is that true? If so, any alternative to get the USB Microphone to work without a sound card in RPI?

        Please advice. Thanks

          Hi,

          You don’t need a sound card in Rpi. You can use the native one.
          The microphone nned to be configured with alsa.
          Example config here.

            @sispheor Thanks, my microphone works somehow after installing the python.

            Am still trying to get it work as the MMM-Assistant instruction don’t seem to have a complete guidance

                I want the Google Assistant integration. Based on MM-Assistant module documentation at https://github.com/eouia/MMM-Assistant/wiki

                I had completed all the check from 1 to 4 Post Installation. The subsequent Configuration (Simple version) and Full Version & default value confused me. There is no indication if the script need to be added into one of the file and/or which file.

                Thereafter, the Usage column onward did not explain much of how to begin the command eg. “OK, Google” or the Hotword to wake the Assistant up.

                  I had followed every step https://github.com/eouia/MMM-Assistant/wiki and everything went smoothly until 3-2) .pmdl for snowboy hotword detection. Instruction was to visit https://snowboy.kitt.ai/ and get .pmdl for your voice. (Hotkey)

                  I tried following instruction at snowboy site - http://docs.kitt.ai/snowboy/ and things goes bad.

                  I couldn’t load the DEMO - python demo.py snowboy.pmdl and now I am stuck here.

                  Please help

                    I tried to get the MagicMirror to listen to the Hotkey command “eg. Smart Mirror or Snowboy” none of these work. The MagicMirror did not response.

                    Is there any missing execution command to get the microphone standby listening?

                    Please help
