Any language progress? #29

Open Tech4Ever opened 9 years ago

Hi Steven,

did you make any progress in using a different languge than english? As Voicecommand is using Wolfram Alpha to answer to questions, couldn´t you just let google translate the question to english, send it to Wolfram and translate the answer back to the users language?

Also I found out, that if I enter the question "what ime is it?" directly to wolfram alpha on their website, but in german "wie spät ist es?", wolfram automatically finds the closest answer by giving me the correct time. For any reason this does not work with Voicecommand, it would answer "Could not find answer. Try again.".

I´m sorry I bother you with that, but it´s really sad to me that I can´t even use voicecommand to tell me the correct time in german. I also tried to use google for giving me the correct time, but then VC just wants to open midori...

Thanks for you help!

I changed the language to german without any problem. Well, honestly I must say that I had a comparable problem like yours. Voicecommand seemed to ignore my commands.conf at all. So I started voicecommand with "-f" and giving the location of commands.conf. From this point on STT worked in with german language. For TTS i had to add "-l de" right after "tts" in commands.conf. Hope this helps you out!
