Wake Up Word #51

Closed PhDinBlunts closed 7 years ago

PhDinBlunts commented 7 years ago

I would like to change the wake up word to "help". I followed the instructions as best I could, but it does not work for me. I changed the WAKE_UP_WORD in settings.py to "help", I uncommented the POCKET_DICT = join(DATA_DIR, 'athena.dict') line, and I editted the athena.dict so the only line in it is "help HH EH L P"

After all that, it still doesnt work. Any advice? Below are pictures of the editted code.

It looks like there is an extra space before the second "POCKET_DICT" line which should throw a syntax error in Python. Other than that, everything looks good. I just tried it on my machine and it works fine with "help HH EH L P" added. Did the word "athena" work? Does it hang on the "Waiting to be woken up..." part? If so, a better microphone might help as the key word recognition is far from perfect. I've noticed it helps to say the wake up word at different pitches/speeds/loudness.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply. The word "Athena" still works, even when I make the changes, so I don't think it's the microphone. I'll try out your suggestion later though. Thanks!
