UPDATE

[1.1.0] - 2018.10.04

MP3 Output is supported. Now you can get more unchunky sound result.(Set audio.encodingOut to MP3 // OGG is not yet supported.)
ding.wav will be played when Assistant is ready to hear your voice.
How to update from prior version

sudo apt-get install mpg321
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2
git pull
npm install --save wav

@sean Thank You
Ding is working just fine. Thank You. A little annoying sound and I was thinking of replacing it with another sound file. What if I wanted google to say something instead of ding, can I give it text to say easily?

@teitlebot
change other wav file and rename it as ding.wav,
Anyway, if you mean Text-To-Speech, nope. (My prior had that functionality but I abandoned it) I don’t want to back again.

@teitlebot totally agree!

teitlebot

@sean ok. Can I ask why you abandoned it?

A Former User

@teitlebot
Complexity. And most TTS solutions ate not so good to hear. The best Google solution is not free.

teitlebot

@sean I see. I manually created a sound file and replaced it and it works fine, although a bit choppy.

@sean Next Question
Why doesnt google allow me to use the MM to play music. I can get it to play out of my google home mini in my kitchen using the MM but there doesnt seem a way to use the MM speaker to play. not even spotify.
Although youtube does work as you seem to have added that functionality.

Idk. Because this sdk might be just on beta stage?

@sean Thank you very much. The changes for “ding” sound are working like a charm. Initially I got error while git pull as I had my own changes to my .js files. I did ‘git stash’ and merged the new changes. Thank you so much.

git stash
git pull
git stash pop
npm install --save wav
