Kodi (XBMC) Frodo / Gotham / Isengard / Jarvis / Re: Kodi 14 "Helix" - Official release - No known issues yet

« on: December 27, 2014, 11:10:37 AM »

Hi,

I just upgraded to Helix that was released on the 23rd. My VC version is 1.1.9.1.

I have noticed VC doesn't execute the commands after upgrading from Gotham. I went to the XJson plugin to test the connection and I get this:



Also, here is some info from my log:

12/27/2014 9:09:24 AM   30   [plugin] WebException:
System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:11000

Thanks for looking.

Hi,

I got Jb's script going. Please take a look at the voxLog.txt file. I asked, "who is Winston Churchill?" and the TTS result is: "London, Greater London, United Kingdom."

However, here is the log:

[action] TTS.Speak:full name | Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill date of birth | Monday, November 30, 1874 (139 years ago) place of birth | Woodstock, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom date of death | Sunday, January 24, 1965 (age: 90 years) (49 years ago) place of death | London, Greater London, United Kingdom

It seems to only speak the last part of the text.

Edit: I did it again and this time it spoke "full name" and that was it. lol Seems to read the beginning or end. No idea how this works.

Thanks for looking.

What is a good microphone for speech recognition? / Yeah, I have a Voice Tracker™ Array Microphone

« on: December 28, 2013, 05:09:05 PM »

But it doesn't matter how "good" they are. Open air mics pic up everything. I bought it back in the day and used One Voice Communicator with WMC. It's great when there's no background noise!

So imagine you're watching a movie and suddenly it plays some random song. It thinks you gave the command. Imagine having the crap scared out of you in the process. I simply had to stop using it.

I have ordered the Amulet remote. The on/off function seems ideal to home theater enthusiasts.

If anyone wants a video demo just let me know.

Thanks for the info.

I enabled the plugin and changed the settings. I restarted Vox. I clicked on Edit and a new window opens up called voicecommands.xml. Should Wunder be in that list somewhere?

Hi,

I enabled the plugin but I'm not seeing it in the command tree. Not sure what to do next.

Thanks!

Other Plugins / How do I get started with X10?

« on: December 15, 2013, 09:45:48 AM »

The wiki is vague and so are the options of the plug-in.

Also, does Activehome Pro and Vox need to be on the same machine?
