print googleSpeechURL: ordinal not in range(128) #1
Description
I've ran into error
$ python PiTranslate.py -o en -d ru -t "hello"
Origin: en
Destination: ru
Text: hello
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "PiTranslate.py", line 53, in
speakDestinationText(translation)
File "PiTranslate.py", line 29, in speakDestinationText
print googleSpeechURL
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 50-55: ordinal not in range(128)
If you change
print googleSpeechURL
to
print googleSpeechURL.encode("utf-8")
this line goes fine, but next line fails:
Origin: en
Destination: ru
Text: hello

Changing
subprocess.call(["mplayer",googleSpeechURL], shell=False, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
to
subprocess.call(["mplayer",googleSpeechURL.encode("utf-8")], shell=False, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
throws no error, but no translated speech played. I guess subprocess should be called with parameters encoded in the other way.
Sometimes it throws
$ python PiTranslate.py -o en -d ru -t "hello"
Origin: en
Destination: ru
Text: hello
