Okay some background, I’m an Asterisk Geek – I run both MythTV and Asterisk on the same (very beefy) server.

 

I recently configured Sphinx2 to provide voice recognition to Asterisk. A caller gets a prompt, says the name of the person they want to talk too, and voila it dials. Simple elegant – functional.

 

So it got me to thinking – could I do something similar with MythTV…….namely provide a directional microphone to capture wav files on demand – process them thru Sphinx and use that to change channels etc. Picture being able to say “CNN” or “Channel 45” and have it change channels. I’d probably have to preference the command with a code word (Say “Command Mode” “Command Mode Off”, or some such to eliminate the TV changing on its own.

 

So after that long preamble – I’m pretty sure I can configure this (Sphinx just takes Wav files, and I already have a PERL script that returns TXT based on a wav file), but before I jump in too deep – has anyone else done anything like this?
