Its better to create a configuration file, which you passin on the command line, eg: python -m rpi_intercom -config /path/to/your/config.yaml While everything can be passed in on the command line, this is very cumbersome. Of course there is no reason you couldn't write the systemd unit file, create the user, etc yourself.

Once you have your configuration file, you can install the service a as by running: sudo python -m rpi_intercom -install-service /path/to/your/config.yaml I've written a convenience script to set up the device as a systemd service that starts at boot as a dedicated user and restarts automatically. With no further configuration it will use the default input and output sound device, connetct to the mumble server root, transmit constantly, and listen constantly. server is the only mandatory configuration, you will probably to specify more stuff. Start the service on one or more devices: python -m rpi_intercom -server my-mumble-server.local This makes sure the library is installed for all users, which is important if you want to run it as a service later. Install the library: sudo python -m pip install rpi_intercom you coudl even install it on one fo your raspberry pi's. Presumably you need a Raspberry Pi and speaker/microphone x2, so they can talk to eachother.The echo cancellation is mandatory to avoid feedback that makes the intercom literally useless. I bought this one on Amazon and it works great, but many ~$50 alternatives exist. A speaker/microphone that does echo cancellation.

Raspberry pi mumble windows#

No windows because of an ALSA dependency. Should theoretically work well on any Debian based environment.Worked like crap on a Raspberry pi Zero (but what doesn't?).Worked well for me on the Rapsberry Pi 2, 3, and 4.I host mine on a home server to keep everything local, but here isn't any reason it couldn't connect to the internet. After researching products available on Amazon and projects that do something similar I couldn't find anything that was both secure and easy, so I made it instead. I wanted to have an intercom between my living room and a basement office.

The project could eliminiate this in software but the algorithms for doing so are very hard. This means that the audio played on a speaker 'echos' back to the recipient unless the hardware you're using removes it. There is no 'anti-jitter' built into the audio processing like most audio clients so both sides of the intercom need to have a stable connection to the mumble server. Solve problems that aren't related to intercoms.Requires no knowledge of Linux's truly arcane audio subystems.Uses Mumble, so you can also connect to it from your phone/computer/whatever.Configure GPIO inputs to mute/deafen/transmit/show connected status.This projects sets up a Raspberry Pi to do that. An intercom is a device that connects two points between to hear and be heard. This lets you set up a raspberry pi as an intercom. It can be used as a standalone service or imported as a library to integrate into other more complex projects. A mumble client written in python that makes a raspberry pi run as an 'intercom'.
