I think your Google project(project-1019057327317) is not setup completely. There could be many reasons to cause 4XX errors. But I think you missed making consent screen. Go To Google Cloud Platform > YOUR PROJECT > APIs & Services > Credentials > OAuth Consent Screen Tab and put some information.
I think Application name and Support email are enough. You don’t need to verify, just save it. Then try again.

Before I am going to try to use these modules can someone please tell me whether they can be used with the Google AIY Voice Kit (v1) or not? :grimacing_face:

If you can record and play your voice with that device, it could be.

@cr4z33 I am in the process of setting up now on voice kit v1. did you start yet?

citizendevpi

First, I will abandon this annoying module dependency - Speaker. Sometimes it will not work as my feature. So, currently I’m not making fix about Speaker module. it will be deprecated.
Instead using node module, I will use other stable method - your default audio player program. I’m testing now and it will be released soon.

citizendevpi

@sean you are the man !!! thank you for the info and i will be looking forward to the latest release any time you need anything let me know fyi i love ghost in the shell also keep workin.

Fortunately I was busy at getting to work two LED strips so OK I will wait with pleasure hehe.

Thanks for letting me know. :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

UPDATED (2.0.0)

Whole new build-up.
Annoying speaker dependencies deprecated
More stable. (I think)
Choppy sound issue solved(I think), If you get still this issue, that might be the lack of computing power of your device.
NotificationTrigger dependency free. Now you can activate without NotificationTrigger (But If you want, you can still use it.)
Making Hook and GAction becomes easier
MMM-TelegramBot and other modules supported

@sean
HURRAY! :man_dancing_medium-light_skin_tone:
Going to implement it right now!

Cr4z33

@sean hmm it is to my understanding that a device ID is mandatory right?

Do you have any idea if the Raspberry Voice HAT can be used with your model?
And if yes how can I find out the device id then? :thinking_face:

A Former User

@cr4z33
Do you mean device ID for audio device?
If you have a sound card(HAT) or audio processing integrated into your motherboard, get a list of all the audio devices on your system by executing this command:

arecord --list-devices

You should get output similar to this:

**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
card 0: IXP [ATI IXP], device 0: ATI IXP AC97 [ATI IXP AC97]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

In this case, your recording device is hw:0,0.
You can test with this.

arecord  -D hw:0,0 -d 5 test.wav

For output device, similar. use

aplay --list-devices

Cr4z33

@sean
Thanks for helping a (Raspberry) noob here hehe.

I got a different result:

$ arecord --list-devices
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
card 0: sndrpigooglevoi [snd_rpi_googlevoicehat_soundcar], device 0: Google voiceHAT SoundCard HiFi voicehat-hifi-0 []
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Therefore would my recording device still be hw:0,0?

aplay gave me this:

aplay --list-devices
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: sndrpigooglevoi [snd_rpi_googlevoicehat_soundcar], device 0: Google voiceHAT SoundCard HiFi voicehat-hifi-0 []
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I believe it’s the same ID like above right?

A Former User

@cr4z33 Details are dependent with also your asound config. But,
Can you record and play some audio in Terminal?

arecord -t 5 test.wav & aplay test.wav

Can you execute this? tell me the result.

(I haven’t had voiceHAT, so cannot guaranteed, but same name could be available.)

@sean
I get an error and please note that I’ve tried to translate to English. :winking_face:

arecord -t 5 test.wav & aplay test.wav

arecord: main:574: unrecognized file format 5

@cr4z33
Try this.

arecord -t 5 -D hw:0,0 test.wav

Does this make test.wav?
If so, try this again.

aplay -D hw:0,0 test.wav

@sean
Nope. :pensive_face:

arecord -t 5 -D hw:0,0 test.wav

@cr4z33

cat ~/.asoundrc

Tell me the result.

How you can setup previously? (I think you purchased that device for Google AIY project. Was there any instructions?)
