Hi,

Thanks for the great project. Unfortunately this project does not take input from an external microphone (like heastsets or webcams). I have tried multiple values for sd.InputStream(device='') but so far I have not been successful. Would you know how to receive audio from external mics?

Thank you!

It was due to the SILENCE_THRESHOLD, which varies for an external microphone and a system's microphone.
