StandAlone ASR client fails if webrtcvad is installed (python 3) #3

Closed pirelaurent closed 6 years ago

pirelaurent commented 6 years ago

Client run well as long as webrtcvad was not installed (with only the warning message about it.) Once webrtcvad installed ( caution pip install webrtcvad needs a valid compiler on windows) , program fails line 116 : buffer += msg -> cannot convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly . I saw that buffer is initialised as a string buffer = "" , while msg comes from the queue.

Note: Config is python3.5.2 as indicated in doc.

Peter, let's see if we can solve this without the help of Eduardo. If you don't know what's going on, let's involve them.

I was able to reproduce the error (and more) before fixing this.

It looks like empty strings "" were being used where bytes() would be (strictly speaking) more-correct.

I've pushed the changes

Thanks Peter. Pierre, it would be great if you could confirm this solved the issue for you.

pirelaurent commented 6 years ago

Yes, thanks. Client runs now with VAD is on. I can test a step further.
