@strawberry-3.141
I am having trouble getting this module to recognize my USB Microphone.

I am using this mic:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IR8R7WQ/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza

I previously used it when I built an Amazon Echo and I didn’t have any problem.

When I run the installer it returns this:
INFO] Possible Audio Devices to set in config.js

0 [ALSA ]: bcm2835 - bcm2835 ALSA
bcm2835 ALSA

Do you know if there is any special configuration I need to do to get it find the mic?

Interesting I’m using the same mic with no issues…

What are you running it on? RPI 3? I would do this:

Terminal window:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

That will install Pixel - the newest updated version… Then try to find your mic doing this in a terminal window:

arecord -l

See what that says… let me know!

I tried the command a record -I

it returned this:
pi@magicmirror:~ $ arecord -l
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
pi@magicmirror:~ $

Its just not seeing it. I’m guessing that the mic broke.

@strawberry-3.141 I’ve conducted the command “sudo bash dependencies.sh”

I’ve tried the command ‘sudo chmod 777 /opt /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-voice’ and than ‘bash dependencies.sh’ and it works!

@daveyg_71 i had this experience couple of weeks ago, what helped in my case was shutdown the rpi switch the microphone into another usb slot an restart the pi, then run the command cat /proc/asound/cards to get the same output as in the installer. Sometimes I had to do it a few times until it worked again. But since two months I didn’t had tis issue again.

@Nonamexp Glad you could fix your issue

Awesome work!

Would be great if you could configure keywords which show/hide certain modules and configure notifications … something like this:

keywords: {
    'HIDE WEATHER': {
        hide: ['weather']
    }
    'SHOW WEATHER': {
        show: ['weather']
    },
    'SIMPLE MODE': {
        hide: ['default','foo','bar'],
        show: ['simple'] 
    },
    'RESTART': {
        notification: 'RESTART'
    }
}

It might be good to know that I’ll probably be implementing this in the coming weeks: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/241/revising-the-show-hide-mechanism

@daveyg_71 when you do what strawberry suggested after you reboot redo the

arecord -l

Like he said you may have to do it a couple times but it should show you more than likely your mic is 1

@Nonamexp my guess is because you installed it in /root/… instead of /home/pi/… so it cant find the file

@strawberry-3.141 Thanks for the advice. I plugged the mic into my Mac and I couldn’t get it to see it. Must be the mic. I ordered a new one so I will find out in a few days.

If I run the installation, there is allways a error when it wants to install the PocketSphinx.
What is wrong?

strawberry 3.141

@SimJim do you have some more output to provide?

SimJim

This is what happens all the time…

strawberry 3.141

@SimJim i will test this tonight

Nonamexp

I’ve the next problem: On the Mirror shows the message ‘Error’ , ‘No Moduls identified’.
in the Error Log: Error: spawn pocketsphinx_continuous ENOENT-2

help me pls ;(

@Nonamexp as I said due to installing in root directory the binary will not be found

@SimJim Error code 56 indicates a curl receive error of CURLE_RECV_ERROR which means there was some issue that prevented the data from being received during the clone process. Typically this is caused by a network setting, firewall, VPN client, or anti-virus that is terminating the connection before all data has been transferred. It’s not related to this module this is something general

@cowboysdude I got the new mic, and the pi can see it now, but the mirror is showing error next to the microphone.

Is there anything wrong with my config file?

            {
                            module: 'MMM-voice',
                            position: 'bottom_bar',
                            config: {
                                    microphone: 1,
                                    keyword: 'MAGIC MIRROR',
                                    timeout: 15,
                    }
            },

@daveyg_71 there is an error log in the mmm-voice directory can you post it? and do you get any errors in the terminal or electron console?

@strawberry-3.141 said in MMM-voice:

What please do what @strawberry-3-141 said :) Look in the directory for an error log… or when you start your mirror run it in dev mode: npm start dev
