Windows 8 / 10 / esc key

« on: December 22, 2017, 03:51:15 AM »

Sorry if this is in the wrong section wasn't sure where to ask
SO I finaly decided to make the leap to windows 10 and I've been using both VOX and Cortana (love its voice recognition so I use it for basic stuff and VOX for everything else) and I'm having a small problem sening a keystoke with vox to fix a problem I'm having with Cortana
The problem is cortana tends to have a full screen overlay that pops up with it and doesn't go away unless you either hit the esc key or hit the X in the corner, which is the stupidest thing ever cause it defeats the purpose of voice control.
Anyway, I want to send the Esc Key from vox when I have the full screen from Cortana. Now. I know how to use InputKeys.Send I just don't know how to get it to send the ESC key I tried {ESC} to no avail and if i just press the esc key the LCB window closes. So can someone plese tell me how to (if possible) send the Esc key please

XML Exchange / Find my phone

« on: July 11, 2016, 12:50:58 AM »

Been using VC for little while now and finally did something I think is worth contributing
I recently found out that if your PC and phone are signed into the same google/gmail account and you google search I lost my phone from the PC you can not only locate your phone but have your PC make it ring. Now I for one lose my phone all the time,  bed, car, couch, that one time it was in the fridge, so i figured why not have VC help me out.
I probably over complicated it (It worked that was good enough I guess) but i made a command that makes it so all you have to do is say something like "I can't find my phone" and VC makes your phone ring.
Problem with the whole "lost my phone" thing on google is the first time you run it or if haven't run it in a while or you've run it to much google makes you re-sign in for security. so my way around that is to make VC sign into google every time BEFORE it goes to the lost my phone search that way the search doesn't ask u to log in. Now I have this working (for now) on two PC's but that doesn't mean I did it right so no guarantees but here's the xml I'm using. Just log into google with IExplorer/Robo and have it set to stay logged in on that PC (that way when you go to the login page again all it'll ask for is the password not the email) then put you google password in the password spot on the xml and you should be all set
If anybody else finds an easier/less complicated way to pull this off please post

"Open air" and "whole home" microphones / Kinect help with numbers

« on: June 13, 2016, 04:11:59 PM »

S I'm using VC with my kodi set up and I love it. Only problem is I'm using Kinect as a mic and numbers dont register which make commands like "scroll down 1", "browse tv show 30 rock", "play movie 2 guns" etc pretty useless. Now I know on VC options it says that to use numbers I need to create a payloadXML that maps word phrases to number values. But, as noobish as it sounds, I don't even know what that means can someone kind of point me in the right direction on what to do for #'s

General Discussion / Can't get it to work at all... (unable to start speech recognition engine error)

« on: February 15, 2015, 04:57:48 PM »

Not sure if I'm posting this in the right section but here goes......

I'm new here, I recently decided to dive into the world of voice control (Media Browser support was what finally convinced me). So I went and got a kinect hooked up to the PC and installed VoxCommando. Only problem is every time I open VoxCommando I get this error



I've spent 2 days trying to fix it, I've searched all over the forums and google still no luck. Can someone please try and point me in the right direction on how to make this work
