Or most of those cases are caused by your mic setup. Check your configuration whether record.device has a proper name. (If your mic is default device, leave that field as null but when your mic has another name like plughw:1, set that field with it.

[cola0927]

@sean After I changed the device name in both MMM-AssistantMk2 and MMM-Hotword, the module worked partially. I had to hit microphone icon to let its start listen to me, but that was a one-time response.

Do you have any idea what the problem is? Thank you so much.

Show me your configuration related with MMM-NotificationTrigger. I think MMM-NotificationTrigger cannot relay the connection between Hotword and Assistant.

[cola0927]

@sean I used the one that you told me previously in config.js with a default MMM-NotificationTrigger.js

{
                        module: "MMM-NotificationTrigger",
                        config: {
                          triggers:[
                            {
                              trigger: "HOTWORD_DETECTED",
                              fires: [
                                {
                                  fire:"HOTWORD_PAUSE",

                                },
                                {
                                  fire:"ASSISTANT_ACTIVATE",
		                  delay: 200,
                                  payload: function(payload) {
                                    return {
                                      "profile": payload.hotword
                                    }
                                  }
                                },
                              ]
                            },
                            {
                              trigger: "ASSISTANT_DEACTIVATED",
                              fires: [
                                {
                                  fire:"HOTWORD_RESUME"
                                }
                              ]
                           },
                         ]
                       }

                },

@cola0927 what word are you using for wakeup? Try snowboy.

[cola0927]

@teitlebot Yes, I tried. It showed that hotword had deteted my voice but then stopped listening instead of waking up assistant. I agree with @Sean that the problem is notification trigger is not working properly. Unfortunately I have no idea how to correct it.

So I have been working on my mirror for a few weeks now and so far the MMM-AssistantMk2 module is the only thing I cant seem to get working. As mentioned in a number of previous post, when I apply the default module setup in the config.js and restart, I get an all black screen and nothing is responsive. I can SSH into the config.js and comment out the 5 lines for that module, reboot and all is good again. I have removed and rebuild the module with no errors and no new results.

Has anyone found the cause behind this and how to resolve? I do have Hotword and NotificationTrigger modules running with no problem. Let me know if I need to drop an image file or some log files for further help. I’m truly stumped here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

[teitlebot]

@sublim3 I dont know if there is a fix for this but thats why many of us are running in serveronly mode

@cola0927 @SubLim3
Well, sorry for the inconvenience. Your configuration looks no problem. The easy way to fix could be to test some suspicious points and log it, but it might need some experiences.

Do you have Telegram? I can help you with it in real-time. my Telegram ID is “@eouia”. Give me a chat anytime.

[mirror.master]

@sean Yes sir! Thank you! Updated everything to stretch and got my mkassistant to run! my next dilemma was linking hotword and notrigger but i gave up, make just make a physical button to click the mic, now on to those tutorials lol wherever they may be.

@Sean Any suggestions of integration facial recognition to the magic mirror?

@teitlebot said in MMM-AssistantMk2 & MMM-GAction:

@Sean Any suggestions of integration facial recognition to the magic mirror?

I made this module to work with other modules by NotificationTrigger. So Another Facial recognition module could activate AssistantMK2 if there is a proper notification broadcasting. There is no need to implement that function in AssistantMk2 itself.

[teitlebot]

@sean Thank You. Some more learning on my part. I plan on installing
https://github.com/paviro/MMM-Facial-Recognition and will report back here.

[teitlebot]

For those interested, I upgraded from a tiny usb mic to a playstation eye and had much improvement on voice recognition.

[mirror.master]

Hey guys any idea why my Google assistant won’t go back to sleep after use? It’s honestly recent, and weird. I can use it as normal, but the Mic stays blue after the fact and doesn’t turn off.

[vijayrraut]

Hello @sean , I am also looking for a “ding” sound on hotword detection, but no luck. Did you get a chance to add this feature to assistantmk2. It would be of great help when talking to the mirror from far distance.

[A Former User]

@vijayrraut
I’ll consider it.

[A Former User]

@vijayrraut
Ver 1.1.0 is ready. (not yet merged into master branch)
You can use ding sound on 1.1.0. It will be my pleasure if you test this for me.
https://github.com/eouia/MMM-AssistantMk2/tree/1.1.0

[teitlebot]

@sean I’ll give it a try. How do I install something that isnt in the master branch?

[A Former User]

@teitlebot

sudo apt-get install mpg321
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2
git pull
git checkout 1.1.0
npm install --save wav
