Noob question and mic

Hi :slight_smile:

My Rhasspy server is running (with virtuel env) \o/ but I don’t know which way to take it.

I’d like to know if everything works, especially my microphone (PS3 eye). How can I test it? How do I know if it records my voice well?

Rhasspy’s menus are very complex for a noob, eventually it will be to use it in connection with Jeedom (developped by @KiboOst) .

Thank you !

Have a look at: https://www.hackster.io/matrix-labs/rhasspy-voice-assistant-on-matrix-voice-and-matrix-creator-97f92e

They test the mic as well.

Thanks @Bozor for this link.

In my case, log doesn’t update when i speak, do i have to click on button ? Which one ?

When i restart Rhasspy, i have this log, i think it’s ok :

Did u click on wake and heard a short sound? If yes after the sound u can say your command.

In case you’re not hearing any sound after clicking on wake try another source out under the speaker section of the settings.

Actually, i have no speaker because Odroid C1 doesn’t have mini-jack. I have to buy this item : Odroid USB Audio Adapter

But, i think we can see something without speaker, don’t you think ?

dont have a usb headset or cheap usb soundcard lying around somewhere? =)

Maybe you could record a test wav into a directory you can access with your computer?

Also, Ps3 cam is pretty low by default - see this thread

You could run arecord <filename> to start a recording and save it to a file. Press Ctrl + C when you’re done and transfer the file to a computer with a connected speaker.

Thanks for your replies.

@NullEntity, each time, i have this error :

arecord: main:788: audio open error: Device or resource busy

If i change for PyAudio, i have the same error.

If i use arecord and test all device tagged working! i have the same error :frowning:

I don’t know what to do…

In rhasspy settings, uncheck “listen for wakeword on startup”
You can’t use wakeword and arecord simultaneously
