@sdetweil Thank you for the quick answer! Doing that as we speak.Do you however also have any knowledge about MMM-Voice? Running into an error there as well, that’s what prompted the update. Thanks!

When i went to go update, it said i had three files that were preventing it from updating, so i deleted them as i said, was package.json, package-lock.json, and vendor/package.json (I think). After updating, i try to run it and it gives a blank screen with the cursor showing and this is what shows in the terminal.

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
Launching application.

It launched and worked fine beforehand, i was just updating because i was getting an error for some reason with MMM-Voice and thought maybe if i updated it would work.

@jmartin1009 this is possible it’s saying this because it’s already there, but i wasn’t sure i figured i’d give it another go. Let me know if there’s anything i should change or try, but i know this mic does work, as it shows up in

arecord -l

and it comes up and i can select it in alsamixer and everything, just can’t get hotword to hear me.

@sdetweil @ejay-ibm well i got a new mic and i tried it out, still no detection for MMM-Hotword. It works for GoogleAssistantMk2 when i click the button on the screen, but no hotword detection. I worried that it may be because of snowboy failing to install properly the first time for some reason, so i went into the module in the console and did npm install and got this:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Hotword $ npm install

any idea how i can fix this?

@sdetweil yeah it’s the PS3 eye camera microphone, it has a 4 microphone array that alsamixer hates lol

@sdetweil What explains no response from the modules? My mic’s gain in alsamixer? if so how can i fix that? Or should i just get a new mic

@ejay-ibm that is for the MM config.js right? Or is that what you have in the MMM-Hotword.js config file?

@ejay-ibm I also changed it so the sauce wasn’t there and I made it so it said plughw:1 in all of them, but still nothing

@ejay-ibm also is there anyway to change the gain or whatever? I went to alsamixer and went to the capture section and the bar doesn’t move or anything when I speak into my mic. Not sure if anything is supposed to happen but it says both L and R capture are the 100, not sure what that means.

@ejay-ibm @sdetweil what should I have in the module list in the config.js for the magicmirror program for each module? Not sure if I have the right stuff or too much or what
