Question about band names and local voice control in music assistant
Hey friends, I am using a fully local voice assistant set up to control my music library. Most of the time it works great, but there are some band names that it just cannot deal with.
For example, two of my favourite bands are Lagwagon and NOFX (40 year old white guy in the house!), and I have not figured out a way to say that with my slight Cape Breton accent that can be correctly transcribed.
I just set up a script that catches things like “play leg wagon” and “play leg wedding”, which is how whisper interprets me saying that , which works but clearly isn’t ideal. Before I continue down this dark rabbit hole, I was wondering how other folks deal with this.. I am using the small whisper model.
Initially, I tried tying in an AI, with the “process locally first” option enabled, in hopes it would work as a back up, but the extra delay was too much, and my wife was deeply unimpressed.
