NVM

Broken on Windows??

I can't get this to work at all using Win32 binaries. Throws an interesting error, and debugging shows the array of arguments is keeping its commas. Separating them out into a string however just causes another colorful error, "Incorrect value of args option" which I can't even figure out what's going on.

Also, it seems to be really difficult to find sox binaries for Linux, so I can't test on linux :(

I have an issue when I execute example.js

C:\Users\Maxence\Desktop\node-speakable-master\node-speakable-master ([email protected])
λ node example.js
events.js:160
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Speakable fails on Node.js v4.2.1 due to spawh() changes

Running speakable on Node.js v4.2.1 fails with [TypeError: options argument must be an object]. This happens when trying to spawn the sox process (node-speakable.js, line 75) due to the options argument passed being a string.

The quick fix for this is to change that line to

var rec = spawn(self.cmd, self.cmdArgs, {stdio:'pipe'});

I haven't tested this change on Node.js v0.12.x though.

Adding flac to SoX

Hi, I just ran the configure of SoX anf found out it doesn't add flac automaticly, wich you use to send to the API of google speech.

After googling for a couple of hours now I can't seem to figure out how to do this...

Could you give me any help with that please?

Thanks!

FAIL sox: Sorry, there is no default audio device configured

can anyone help me solving this error ?
I'm working on windows OS and sox-14-4-2

Buffer overrun

I just added sox to the lib when I hit this error.

/v2.0/node_modules/speakable/lib/sox WARN coreaudio: coreaudio: unhandled buffer overrun. Data discarded.

Any idea?
Thanks!

Error Message on MacBook

I am using a Mac with the latest OS.

I downloaded the module and I put the sox binary into the lib folder. But I am continuing to get this error (in the screenshot):

I havent changed the code because I have just been trying to get it to work on my machine. I also tried the same test on my Windows machine, and put the SoX windows binary instead but got the same error.

my code is here:

can anyone tell me what is causing this error?

Always "onSpeachReady"

Hi! I use Ubuntu and I'm trying use this lib.

I'm using this example and the log is always "onSpeechReady".

I speak anything but nothing happens.

Any idea? My notebook is a Dell and it has a mic.

sox never quits, and therefore never posts

I am not sure if this is expected behavior or not, but it seems to me that sox never stops recording. As the data is only posted on the close event, this never happens (only when I do it manually, which works).

Unhandled 'error' event

On ubuntu with nodejs v0.10.25

artem@artem-desktop-bt:~/build/node-speakable$ 
node example.js 
onSpeechReady

events.js:72
        throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
              ^

Does you script supposed to run on mac os 10.9

When i run the example.js

i get the error :

rec FAIL formats: no handler for given file type `flac'.

I have installed SoX from 'brew' and and I do have flac 1.2.1 installed.

I have gone though man pages at http://sox.sourceforge.net/sox.pdf but did not get the information that I am looking for.

How can I add support for .flac files?

I am on OS X 10.9.3
