event. ([object SpeechRecognitionError])

Opened this issue · 3 comments

I've installed it and am using the code that is provided as an example and i just get this error:
events.js:163 Uncaught Error: Uncaught, unspecified "error" event. ([object SpeechRecognitionError])

any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advanced

Can you try to repro on 1.0.6? I'm seeing network errors, which mean there's no quota left on the Chrome Speech API. It may be that they've finally locked non-api-key access out.

In the future, something like jasper might be more promising!

So is this repo thereby dead?

There are some things that interested and enterprising contributors could do:

  1. Do some research on why the API isn't working -- maybe there was an announcement?
  2. Add API key support an use the Google Speech API (not linked to Chrome, I think).
  3. Change the backend to use jasper or some other local speech recognition mechanism.
