To build online-demo, checkout AaltoASR and build and install it normally.

E.g.

git clone [email protected]:aalto-speech/AaltoASR.git
cd AaltoASR
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../dest ..
make install
cd ..

After this, give the installation prefix of AaltoASR as prefix:

git clone [email protected]:aalto-speech/AaltoASR-online-demo.git
cd AaltoASR-online-demo
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DAaltoASR_PREFIX=../../AaltoASR/dest ..
make

Creating DEB package for demo laptops

The executables and data are in separate packages.

To create a data package do:

git clone [email protected]:aalto-speech/AaltoASR-online-demo.git
cd AaltoASR-online-demo/data
./make_new_package.sh

This always creates a new package and bumps the version number automatically. The current package can also be found in /work/asr/demos/aaltoasr-online-demo (automatically copied)

To make an executables package do:

git clone [email protected]:aalto-speech/AaltoASR.git
cd AaltoASR
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../dest ..
make install
cd ../../
git clone [email protected]:aalto-speech/AaltoASR-online-demo.git
cd AaltoASR-online-demo
#Bump version number in CMakeLists.txt if anything has changed
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DAaltoASR_PREFIX=../../AaltoASR/dest ..
make package

When installing the packages (with dpkg -i), install the data package first.

This will create a package that can be installed on any Ubuntu laptop. After that, the demo can be started with the command 'startdemo'

Note that sometimes the make package will fail because of "no ./configure in src/physfs". In that case, cd to build/vendor/paragui/src/paragui_ext/ and run autogen.sh. After that you can run make package again.

Audio Issues

If selecting a microphone in pulseaudio does not work, create the file ~/.asoundrc with the following contents:

pcm.pulse { type pulse }
ctl.pulse { type pulse }
