{
    hotwords: "smartmirror", 
    file: "resources/models/smart_mirror.umdl",
    sensitivity: '0.5', // < - SENSITIVITY
  },

Where should I make this modify?

css/custom.css

@jomwells @Sean
I seem to have always had this problem where after a reboot I sometimes need to manually change the hardware number of my usb mic. I saw @jomwells wrote a fix by changing the .asoundrc file but for some reason my system always changes the asoundrc back after any changes I make.
I wonder if you have any ideas of a fix for me?

As far as I know, there be alias for device instead cardno. But not sure. I’m not familiar with these things.

Sorry @Sean I’m new in the MagicMirror environment and I do not know all the components.
Where can I find information on what is needed and how to customize the “custom.css” file?
What do you mean:

Redefine CSS selector #ASSISTANT_YOUTUBE in css/custom.css.

MagicMirror use the “custom.css” or “main.css”?

Thanks

@egnos It uses both. Changes you make to custom.css will 1) be included in the mirror’s display and 2) persist if you update when new mirror code is released.

There are 3 endpoints of CSS applied.

CSS of module itself(modules/SOMEMODULE/SOMEMODULE.css) : It is predefined CSS for module by it’s developer.
main magicmirror css (css/main.css) : This is common CSS for Mirror itself and basic default module CSS.
custom css (css/custom.css) : When you need to modify some CSS rules over SOMEMODULE.css and main.css, You can redefine or override that CSS rules here.

By example;
#ASSISTANT_YOUTUBE is defined in modules/MMM-AssistantMk2/MMM-AssistantMk2.js like this;

#ASSISTANT_YOUTUBE {
  width:100%;
  height:100%;
  border:none;
  display:none;
  position:fixed;
  top:0;
  left:0;
  background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
  z-index:99999;
}

When you want to modify some CSS rules - smaller size -, you can override those rules in your css/custom.css instead modify MMM-AssisntantMk2.js directly.

#ASSISTANT_YOUTUBE {
  width: 50%;
  height:50%;
  top: 25%;
  left: 25%;
}

@Sean : First of all, great Work from your side, my Assistant is working, but I have a question: Is it possible, that the answer box from google could stay a little bit longer onscreen? I also tried your custom.css customization, but it doesn’t work, changing it in MMM-AssistantMk2.css was successful, any suggestions?

@Lowis : you wrote that your Radio is running, i was also successful, but are you also able to stop it with the voice command? My Mic reacts on saying the Hotword, but then nothing happens. Only a reboot stops the Radio

@davido I think the option you are looking for regarding answer of assistant duration on screen is :
“screenDuration”: 2000 // here for 2 seconds

hope this helps
