Audio notes with speech recognition? #249

Closed LightTemplar closed 8 years ago

LightTemplar commented 8 years ago

A big challenge and a stage growth :)

Any plans to add a possibility to dictate a note? Using free Speech recognition engines, like CMU Sphinx , Kaldi or something else from wiki list.

I have to make some notes, concentrated to inside myself. When I type them, my attention goes out and breaks the concentration :(

I would like to split this work on two stages: being concentrated dictate it, then rework and structure what I have dictated. By the way, if someone knows other solution for Linux, I would very very appreciate the link.

Try https://mycroft.ai/, but I guess there never will be anything that will work on all operating systems and I don't think speech recognition should be the job of software like QOwnNotes, why do you think it should?

pbek commented 8 years ago

By the way, Mycroft runs on Linux itself and there are widgets for Gnome and Qt...

CMU Sphinx written on java and Kaldi works on all Unix OS and Windows. QON is note taking software, so I thought, an audio note, turned into text, also note =)

Mycroft looks interesting, but I didn't find any info about installing or compiling it.

LightTemplar commented 8 years ago

Looks like Mycroft is still in early development phase and not usable at all :(

you can always simply create text files outside of QOwnNotes ;)

Mycroft

try https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core

https://docs.mycroft.ai/features - it's more like a computer controlling software, not a speech recognizer. What I need should be OpenSTT, also a project by Mycroft. But it's still empty: https://github.com/MycroftAI/openstt Have you used Mycroft Core?

pbek commented 8 years ago

I haven't used it yet but it gets mentioned a lot on the Linux Action Show of http://jupiterbroadcasting.com/.

Maybe this is something for you. ;) http://www.heise.de/developer/meldung/Googles-Cloud-Natural-Language-API-und-Speech-API-haben-nun-offenen-Beta-Status-3273860.html

Thanks, but I don't trust Google :( If I would, I would use Google Keep instead of QOwnNotes with OwnCloud.

Good choice ;)
