I’ve just set up the pipeline with assist, and everything is working correctly with Home Assistant Cloud, using one of the default wake words, in my case, “Ok Nabu.” I tried to create my own wake word following this guide: “Create your own wake word - Home Assistant” but I’m facing an issue. I’m attempting to configure “Alfred” as the wake word, but the TensorFlow engine in the guide uses the model “en_US-libritts_r-medium.pt,” which has an American pronunciation. I am Italian, and my pronunciation doesn’t work well with it. I’ve tried changing the letters of the word or using underscores, but I can’t get a working result. Does anyone know of another way to create the .tflite file using a non-English model? Thank you very much.
“For all those who have my problem, I solved it this way: I installed the Snowboy addon on Home Assistant, then on this website ‘https://snowboy.jolanrensen.nl/’ I registered my model (it doesn’t matter in which language, it should work regardless) and saved the .pmdl file in the ‘share/snowboy’ folder on the Raspberry Pi. After that, I selected Snowboy as the wake word in the Home Assistant pipeline and chose my model.”
Thanks for this. Found this while searching for a wake word solution. Could you share where you got the snowboy plugin for HA? It seems to be discontinued.
Hello, I installed and started the snowboy addon. The model registered and downloaded. Where do I add?
.pmdl file? Here it says in MDL but where can I find this folder?
