    Hi there,

    I'm new to the forums and was searching on the forums before I had to add this
    post. I'm running the sample model that is included in the pocketsphinx as
    shown below in the command line in windows:

    pocketsphinx_continuous -hmm C:/model/hub4wsj_sc_8k -lm C:/model/turtle.DMP
    -dict C:/model/turtle.dic

    After running this, it gives me an error "continuous.c", line 250: Failed to
    calibrate voice activity detection.
    Could anyone help please?

    Thank you in advance!

    Teddy

    The most likely reason of the failed calibration is a presence of the DC
    offset. Try to record to a file to see if offset is there. Try to adjust mixer
    settings to make offset smaller.
