Yippee kayay - it's 0.939 !

[jitterjames]

Quite a few little fixes and additions.  Most notable:

- Fixed set volume command i iTunes configuration
- Fixed TTS engine to use to correct output as defined in window TTS settings.
- Added TTS command TTS.SetOutput so you can change audio device output for TTS on the fly
- Added Scan MediaPortal to the GenXml menu on the main VC window.
- Fixed: VC should now return to the correct previoius state (on, off, standby) after autorebuild and quick restarts, instead of staying off.

MpWifi plugin:
- fixed the TvChannel command (I hope - can't test)

MpScan plugin:
- various minor fixes to the interface
- Added scanning for Tv and Radio Channels that are exported to xml file from Mp TV Server (if questions please post here: http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=719.0 )

edit: updated attachment to version 0.939
- fixed a TTS bug
- added new language files including Spanish (thanks Aitor, Alex, Kalle and Wanilton)
- Added new VC.SetOptions command (more info on that to come)

cool.  If nobody notices any major bugs I'm going to put this on the main download page for new users.

Nice upgrade James.  However, when I use the command TTS set output 5, nothing happens.  Also I am a bit confused on how to query for weather conditions.  Is that something I am supposed to program?  When I test it, I get the weather, but no TTS. 

[jitterjames]

I recommend you use the name of an output, not the number.  How do you know which one is 5?  After you set the output, you need to issue a TTS command to see if it works.

If you request the weather it will return a result.  You then use {lastresult} in a subsequent action (TTS or OSD or whatever).  All actions that retrieve information work this way.

Areyou talking about google weather plugin or the older  Weather.TWN commands?
see this post for a googleweather sample group: http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=617.msg4481#msg4481

in case anyone else runs into this, I think there is a bug when you try to use multiple TTS actions in the same command.  I am looking into it.

Hi, when you open in windows the "audio output settings" select a output and click on properties, there you can enter a specific name for this output (see picture 1).
To use the TTS.SetOutput command in VC, you can do follow:

1.) create a new command with action "TTS.SetOutput"  with payload (picture 2)

2.) use it with a payloadList. (picture 3)

It is important that you enter in the payload List the exact names of the outputs!

Hey Kalle,  Wonderful post.  I was too lazy to do all that

My only note is that you can use a substring of the device name if you want.

So if your device is named "plantronics usb headset" you could just use "plantronics" if you want.  But of course you need to be careful in case you have two devices with "plantronics" in the name... it will use the first one it finds.

I know people are watching this thread so I'm posting a link here to the new tutorial(s): http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=724.0

I hope you find it useful.

Hey James

Thank you for another update.

I have one issue though: i updated from 0.85 or something to 0.938, overwriting my existing voxcommando folders. Now VC doesn't recognise my prefixes any more while in standby mode (VC explicitly says ignoring/ we are in standby mode). I have a prefix set in options ('computer'). Everything works fine in listening (green) mode.

[jitterjames]

If you overwrite files and folder you should do a "purge cache" and then restart.  That usually fixes any anomalies.

[painy]

Damn you're responding fast, i was just about to post I had found a way to fix it only to see that you've beaten me to it :p

Thanks!

[jitterjames]

sorry
