@sdetweil same thing in the debug log, so hopefully i’ll get an answer on github, thanks for the help! If you discover anything else or have any other ideas i’ll give them a shot tomorrow, otherwise don’t sweat it. Thanks!

@sdetweil its installing pocketsphinx again so i wonder if it will change the file we changed with the paths and the plughw and stuff

@sdetweil i thought i did, but i’ll do it again just to be safe, if that won’t mess up anything

@sdetweil no worries! i wish i just could have found a voice control program that didn’t cause me to rip my hair out and give up and try another one by now haha i’ve tried a bunch and they always seem to fail for me.

@sdetweil done, thank you for all of your help, I appreciate you taking time out of your day to troubleshoot this with me, you’ve helped me with a ton of stuff and i really appreciate it.

Error opening audio device plughw:1,0 for capture: Invalid argument
FATAL: “continuous.c”, line 245: Failed to open audio device

@sdetweil just changed those file paths, tried running MM, still getting “ERROR undefined” next to the little microphone

@sdetweil oh yeah, im going to change the file paths in it right now in the one you sent last.

@sdetweil which file? and i’ll go change those right now

@sdetweil this is the entire index file, didn’t see that anywhere

also, both of those files are there.
