Awesome!
I’ve been using your GassistPi in the past, I’ll try for sure to have it running with Volumio too!
it can be a great fit with this one
Is it possible to use a 12sdac with this google assistant integration ?
Will be nice to have an official plugin in volumio
You can use any DAC of your choice. I am not an expert with Volumio plugins. 
You think it’s possible to change the spelling language of google assistant ?
You can change it to any language listed here https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7550584?hl=en

I try but it does not work ```
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install python3.7
Do not do sudo apt-get upgrade that will destroy the existing volumio installation. Did you add the Raspbian sources to the sources.list ? If you follow the steps one by one Given in the project README it will work without an issue. I tested this on the latest Volumio image ( VERSION: 2.779 RELEASE DATE: 08-06-2020)
ok i will try again with a new micro sd card of volumio
There was a small typo that was writing the Raspbian sources to the wrong list. I have fixed that. It should work now. You can start from here https://github.com/shivasiddharth/GassistPi/blob/Volumio/README.md#add-raspbian-sources
Ok thank you ! Will try it soon !
