Slight Delay With Ezb Voice

Skip to comments   Jump to end

Quick Question,

Is it me or have you all noticed a slight delay with the SayEzB Voice. In other words, when the command is executed half or most of the words are not being spoken. Has anyone else seen this?

Can't say I've seen that happen at all with mine. Have you checked it's not the speaker? It doesn't sound like it would be the speaker but that would be my first point to check.

I have no delay to speak of.... Do you have a good wifi network? Fast computer?

#3  

I would peg that as a slow pc or stuff running in the back ground for a slight delay. Make sure your drivers are up to date. Un install the current ones and install the most up to date.

Yep, if your computer is running a lot of background tasks or apps then that can cause the delay you mentioned....

When you say slow computer, slow Wifi, etc. Those would be the cause of the issue I am hearing? I am connecting to the version 4 board with my desktop wifi. The say command (computer audio) is fine. As far as I can tell things in my computer is fine.

Does it happen all of the time, with every sayezb() command? Or is it only now and then? Does it do it with the EZ-B Soundboard too?

Have you checked the speaker is properly connected to the EZ-B? It wont take much for the speaker to not be in contact with the two contacts on the EZ-B, so if the shell is a little loose it could cause the connection between speaker and EZ-B to break therefore no sound.

What is you computer? iCore5,7,etc....What version of Windows? 7 or 8?... That kind of thing... What router do you have?... If you pc say commands work fine, then maybe the lag is with your WIFI? Are there any other lags? Camera, servos, movement panels? I had to upgrade my router because it was crap... slow, many disconnects and the range was terrible... Could be your wifi/router, especially if you have lags in other areas...?

.... Just a thought, which may or may not be relevant to your issue.... SayEZb does not have a SayEBZWait command like the PC SayWait command... Meaning you'll need to use the sleep command after each SayEZB command if you want to it to say more, or else it will cut off the first SayEZB command.... see below...


SayEZB("I am an awesome robot made by EZ Robot")

sleep(2000) # without this the next EZBSay command will cut off the first one
