respeaker / alexa Goto Github PK

When I run pip install pocketsphinx, it always failed. How can I run this demo?

I followed the sets of commands given in following article
http://wiki.seeed.cc/ReSpeaker_4_Mic_Array_for_Raspberry_Pi/

But after being done with the commands. No Status code 204 is received after running
"python ns_kws_doa_alexa_with_light.py"

Please help me to find the issue.

Following is the log file.........

Hi,
It looks like that repeaker is using the lightweight version of package management, opkg, versus the apt-get. However, under the instruction for ubuntu installation of the respeaker/Alexa package, some dependencies are installed using apt-get. I was wondering whether there is any instructions on installing apt-get on respeaker first to be able to install the other dependencies.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

I've successfully sign-in the Amazon account and try to run python alexa.py on respeaker.
But, it shows: SyntaxError: invalid syntax
root@ReSpeaker:/tmp/run/mountd/mmcblk0p1/Alexa# python alexa.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

What can I do to run Alexa service correctly?

Thanks for your reply! Then when I want to authorize the application according to the following steps:

1. Run alexa or /etc/init.d/alexa start to start Alexa Voice Service
2. At the first time, you need to authorize the application. Connect ReSpeaker's Access Point, go to http://192.168.100.1:3000 and tt will redirect you to Amazon to sign up or login in.

Receiving news or streaming music from the response message's url.

When saying Alexa, the bottom LEDs will light up and really hard to see when you have the microphone array and case. Need to use the top LEDs to be able to see Alexa has heard you from when far away.

I'm getting a 400 error when trying to run auth_web.py it seems SSL/HTTPS is required to auth an app.

Hi,
After getting this package to work, I can only access the default functionalities of Alexa. Even though I have multiple custom skills under my amazon account, but when asked using the invocation names of those skills, the response from Alexa on respeaker is that it does not have those skills under its skill sets. I also have linked my calender to my amazon account, but I cannot access that through respeaker either. It is important to mention that I have access to both my calender and all of my skills when I use the Amazon echo dot. An observation is that while I am using the respeaker with basic Alexa functionalities, it appers offline on the Amazon app.
BTW, I have also tried the respeaker/avs package, and that one does not access my skills either.
Am I missing something in the process?

• Python Alexa Voice Service version:
  alexa_2017-01-18_ramips_24kec.ipk

• Python version:
  Python 2.7.9

• Operating System:
  Using android phone, installed alexa on Respeaker Core

Description

After installing and configuring Amazon Alexa on the Respeaker Core I was unable to listen (for example) to a tunein radio station or commands like 'sing happy birthday, sing a song, etc.' are not working. Every time I ask something, she just thinks and doesn't respond. I really want to add the functions of music and songs, because this will make a better Alexa experience.

What I Did

I (kind of) successfully installed alexa on the Respeaker core using all the instructions from here (https://github.com/respeaker/Alexa). She is responding on almost all my questions, but not playing music.

I need to say that almost everytime is start up alexa from the online terminal (command: 'alexa') I get an error of no open channels or something, but got that fixed by running the commands in this order:
/etc/init.d/alexa start // wait two seconds
/etc/init.d/alexa stop // wait two seconds
alexa // wait about 20 seconds and then i got output

Sometimes I use the /etc/init.d/mopidy stop if the commands above does not work and after the command I try the commands above again.

What doesn't work

Every time I say 'Alexa, sing a bithday song', I get this output:

The strange thing about this is that it includes the path to the audio file (audio:https:://dvi8......), but it just don't plays the sound and when I try: 'Alexa, play BBC Radio 6 Music', I get this output:

She says something like 'playing BBC Radio 6 Music from TuneIn', but then it goes quit and I still don't have any sound.

So my question is:

Does anybody know how to fix this problem? I just really want to get as close as possible to an real Amazon Alexa with the Respeaker.

I notice there is a lot of clicking when the audio initially outputs, which causes the first 1-2 words to become incoherent. Is there a way to increase audio performance?

@xiongyihui @yexiaobo-seeedstudio Have you guys stoped this project and left us backers without releasing the promised version V2 that supports the new Alexa apis?

Brand new ReSpeaker, trying to run Alexa on it and getting the following error:

current documentation doesnt seem related to the respeaker set up
if you do download the ipk and run it, it already has its own client and security id in the executable
how would you pass it the correct information, and where the creds file (alexa.json) should be located and what would be the correct syntax .
