Other Plugins / Re: X10 Home automation Payloads

« on: January 29, 2012, 04:13:57 PM »

I don't know if it will help or not, but here's my group for X10 control at home.

you need to put "onoffbrightdrim.xml" and "HomeAutomation.xml" into your .\payloads folder.

then import "VcGrp_X10.xml" into your tree by dragging it in.

Yeap!!!
I made something similar but yours is even more powerfull!!

Great!!!
Thanks

Hello!

well, im trying to create the playload!!
I've to questions.
How can I create a variable value. I want 1 fixed value and one optional value (the optional is a payload) Let say. Bright lights (then use a fixed value like 10) or ad an optional  payload that modifies the regular value (like More, maximun)
Lets say

A1 Bright 10 + {1}

if More is 20
and Maximun is 90
But if I select the payload as optional I get an error in the program.

Is it possible? And how can I do to ad those 2 values?

Thanks
Alex

Other Plugins / X10 Home automation Payloads

« on: January 26, 2012, 09:25:05 AM »

Hello!
I'm not a programmer and many options are far from my understanding.

I'm testing X10 plugin that is working very well with basic commands like turn ON or OFF a lamp.
But, How can I create a Payload to accept various options like, ON, OFF Dimm X% or Bright X%. Or even "turn light ON X%"?? All in the same payload???


Thanks

MediaPortal / Re: Auto Generate PayloadXML for Tv Channels

« on: January 21, 2012, 11:38:48 AM »

Just to summarize...

Before use TV channel change VoxCommand functions, go to your Mediaportal TVServer Configuration program (use to be an icon on your Windows Desk).

In the options in view, there is an Import/Export menu. Select it and choose export. Use default name and default folder.

MP will create an export.XML file that Voxcommand will use.

MediaPortal / Re: VoxCommand 0.938 new TV channel change feature

« on: January 21, 2012, 11:25:07 AM »

Please create an issue for this on the wifiremote site: http://code.google.com/p/wifiremote/issues/list

I think you are just going to have to live with this for now.

For me it's not a problem in fact!!! 
Your import program works perfect even with my really big database!!       and high number  off channels, even terrestial digital channels that for some reason in TVserver they all appear as channel number 1000 (for all af them!) but voice call works fine! (I must say perfect!!)


I'll make deeper test and post there.

MediaPortal / VoxCommand 0.938 new TV channel change feature

« on: January 21, 2012, 10:45:53 AM »

Hello!

Channel Change is working but...
I've an issue with channel change. Before tuning the proper channel, mediaportal opens MyTV and then tunes the channel. This doesn't happens normally when changing channels. Normally it goes straight to new channel which is faster without any intermediate screen.

Another thing is about export.xml. The problem with the use of this file, in my opinion, is that every time you search for new channels those new findings wont be accepted by VoxCommando. I think that maybe we can found help from MediaPortal developers, of how to access directly to the database avoiding and out of date export.xml file.

In the mean time it's working very well ad is really useful!!

Big thanks again!

MediaPortal / Auto Generate PayloadXML for Tv Channels

« on: January 19, 2012, 10:02:19 AM »

perfect.  from this xml I can create a payloadXML file with all the channel names mapped to the correct channel number.

I don't think there is anything else I can do with it though.

Is this something that changes often?  If I understand correctly you need to export this by hand first.  I hope it's not too difficult.  I am able to read sqlite files no problem but don't know about mysql

Yes, obtain this file is easy.
In TVServer config, you have to acces the Import/Export option. And click Export button and give a name...

MediaPortal / Auto Generate PayloadXML for Tv Channels

« on: January 19, 2012, 09:21:27 AM »

Maybe if you send me your tv server database I can whip something up.  

I send you mine  

By the way, I've been trying different channels combinations and althout the system recognized the channel calls properly, nothing happens. I've tried with wifiremote ver 0.6.0 and your modified wifi file (based on vers 0.5.0 as shown in dll version).
As you can see in my setting, I've different channel groups and also different tv cards so may be the problem of is related to that.

I send you a copy of my data base and also an xml file exported channels list, groups... form tv server

Im using mediaportal 1.2.2 and StreamMP skin. I also use eventghost to control Onkyo AMP and domotics.

Thaks again

MpTVChannels.xml  is a payloadXml file so you don't "load" it.  You need to put this file in your MpPayloads folder (as bodiroga mentioned).  Then the voice command will use it to build payloads for you TV channels, mapping the words you say to the correct channel number.

I hope the image helps a bit...

WOW! excellent support... again Big Thanks
Just perfect!

Hi Alex!

It's great to see more spanish people around here ;-) (Although I know you from MediaPortal's forum)

I've attached to my post the configuration I'm using in my VoxCommando installation, you can have a look at it if you want. I have also uploaded a MpTVChannels.xml file (I place it in MpPayloads folder) that contains a table with my TV Channels and their numbers, that I use to change to specific channels using the command "Sintonizar Canal X".

If you have any other question don't hesitate to write it here or send me a PM, I will do my best to help you.

Best regards,

Hola Aitor!! estás en todas partes!! jajaja

Thanks for your xml they are great, I see you also have some X10 devices!!! lol
One day we have to meet...

PS: What microphone are you using?

I'm using the integrated Logitech webcam microphone on top of my TV but isn't giving perfect results. I need a more complex installation. Any recommendation about this?


I'm testing your config, but I'm unable to load the Tv channels xml. It shows multiple unknown parameters with unknown content (A big list).      How can I install them? This is an important matter to me. I've seen the content and I can adapt to my Sat and TV needs.

Thanks to you also for your welcome and files.

Agur!!

Hi Alex.  Thanks for your comments and questions, and welcome to the forum.

the latest version (0.937) does include a default configuration for MediaPortal, and it includes commands to ask about what is currently playing.
http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=704.msg5249#msg5249

If you just want the voicecommands.xml file you can look in the subfolder ...\Resources\configs in the zip file for mediaPortal

There is also support for changing the channel but I do not have a TV tuner so I cannot test this myself.  If there is a user who speaks some english (or french) I can connect to their computer using TeamViewer and help test / configure the channel commands, and share the results on the forum.

if you want to chat with your computer you can use pandorabots.  Open the VC command editor, click the blue planet icon (over the bin) and then drag the group "pandorabot" from the bin to your command tree.  There is currently an english bot and a german bot (zotac).  You can create your own pandorabot in spanish, (or maybe there is one already).  For help creating a pandorabot please go to http://www.pandorabots.com/botmaster/en/home  This is only access by voxCommando, we do not host the bots or provide support for this, but if you get stuck on something you can of course ask here.

There is an area of the forum for XML uploads.  It would be wonderful if you would share your spanish configurations there.  YOu can upload your voicecommands.xml file there and if you want your options.xml

If you only want to share one group of commands you can right-click a group in the editor tree to export it to an xml file.

If you can one day make a video showing multiple microphone setup controlling lights music, etc. and in Spanish that would be really fantastic!

Thanks for your warm receivement. Updating version to 0.937 and translating.

Helo! I'm just new in Voxcommando. I have just discovered this wonderful program and I couldn't wait to make deeper test and quickly buy a licence just few hours later.
I'm impressed about the program. I use it in Spanish and overall performance is very nice.

I must admit, that VoxCommand has pushed my house to a new future... I can control demotics (lights, pool...) just with the voice, create relaxing soft light ambients just by calling them. And start my favorite music with my voice.... Wow... just Sify.

I'll shortly try to install a multimicrofone installation in the house and so on.

Mediaportal support is essential to me, so big thanks!!!

I'm just wondering if I can "ask" the system to inform about the currently played song or media  (artist, title, album...) as seen in XBMC, also call tv channels just with the voice and other fantastic feaures already included in other MCE soft.

One more thing. Can you please provide a post with Mediaportal VoxCommand.xml config file to import in the program. I get crazy traying to control MP but the downloaded version didn't include it. Also updates could be included and we can post translations to other languages.

Has some body develop a plugin or setting to have small conversations (iphone SIRI like) with the computer,a sk open questions and thinks like that?

Well, that's all for now.. My computer is waiting a deep conversation...

Thanks
Alex
