Microphone Issue

Question

I'm hosting a Streamlit app on azure VM (with Ubuntu 22.04 OS) where I face an issue to record an input voice speech which is saved as an empty voice file with no sound. The issue is likely due to that the microphone is not accessed to record voice. So what I have to do?

Answer 1

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

The Azure VM doesn't have access to the user's local microphone. When deployed on a remote server, the app can't directly interact with the client's hardware

To capture audio from the user's microphone, you need to use a browser-based approach. This involves using JavaScript to access the client's microphone and then sending the audio data to your Streamlit app

Hi Amr_Ahmed,Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform!

If configuring VM audio becomes challenging, capture the audio in the browser and send it to the server.Example:

As suggested by hossein jalilian, Use browser-based recording with JavaScript/HTML and send audio data to the Streamlit app.

I have reproduced the scenario for you and here I am providing with the steps I have followed.
