Media Browser (Emby) / Re: Emby finds server but will not log in

Thanks James for your reply. I guess I will go into another direction.

Media Browser (Emby) / Emby finds server but will not log in
« on: October 24, 2017, 01:19:51 AM »
I know this is a old thread but just started playing with Emby and would like to use vox with it. 
The Emby plugin finds my server but it will not authenicate to it.  I can get to the server on my browser using the same
login info.  Is there a manual way to set up the plugin? I have tried filling in the data at top of setup window but no luck.
I have attached the voxLog.

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Just a note, for itach flex the ir blaster has to be on port 3. This is in the documentation. I have three flexs, 1 wifi and
2 ip. All work great. It is late tonight but in the AM I will post my config if it will help.

nime5ter, I figured the volume out.  You just have to add &Volume=?? (?? 1-99) at the end of your 'say' or 'alert'.

nime5ter,

I did a test of your recent xml and both work. 

The addition of the duration in the (alert) made it so that if something was playing already it would mute and play the wav file, then return to playing. It still needs volume control.

The second one (say) does the same thing but returns immediately after is says what is past to it. It seems the best so far. This also needs volume control.

Great work!

Will do some more testing.

lemrock glad you worked everything out.

nime5ter tried your way and it works pretty good and not as many steps as mine, thanks for the info.

Okay here is the way I set up VC to talk to Vera to output to Sonos devices.

Refer to this Web site: http://code.mios.com/trac/mios_sonos-wireless-music-systems#

Pull up your Vera web site to access your Vera setup. I'm using UI5
1. Go to 'APPS' and install 'UPnP Event Proxy', No setup is required
2. Go to 'APPS' and install 'Sonos Controller' plugin. I am using version 1.1, After plugin is installed refresh browser (CTLRL-F5)
   Sonos Controller setup:
   a. Open Sonos Controller under 'My Apps'
   b. There should be a device under 'This plugin has created the following devices:'
   c. Select the device that is listed.
   d. When a popup dialog box opens select 'Settings'.
   e. Under settings select 'Discover', This will go out and retrieve the sonos devices on the network.
   f. The box to the right of the 'Discover' button will show your devices. Select the one you want to link to this controller.
   g. Press the 'Select' button next to your selection. Selected Zone: and IP: should now have the zone you selected and the IP of zone.
       Also State: should be ON.
   h. Save settings by pressing the 'X' in top right hand corner.
   
3. Go to 'AUTOMATION'
   a. Select 'New Scene'
   b. Name the Scene in top left had corner near the 'Immediate' button
   c. Select 'ADVANCED'  at the top of the page
   d. When the window opens, under 'Pick a device:' select the #?? Sonos (?? sonos device#) then select the 'Add' button to the right.
   e. Under Sonos (Please select), select 'Alert'.
       You will be given the following selections:
        URI:                     ( put path to file using =  x-file-cifs://Hostname/Directory/filename.wav )
        Volume:                ( Set volume to what ever you want )
        SameVolumeForAll   ( I did not do anything )
        Duration:               ( Duration of the wav file, start with 5 for five seconds )
        GroupDevices:        ( Put the sonos device/s to output to )
        GroupZones:          ( I did not do anything )
   f. At the top right of web page 'Confirm Changes'
   g. At the top right of web page "SAVE"

That should complete the Vera setup.  Now go to voxcommando and setup a command to call vera using TTS.Speak2Wav and Vera.Scene
 
 
Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--VoxCommando 2.1.0.3-->
<command id="1153" name="TestSonos" enabled="true" alwaysOn="False" confirm="False" requiredConfidence="0" loop="False" loopDelay="0" loopMax="0" description="">
  <action>
    <cmdType>TTS.Speak2Wav</cmdType>
    <params>
      <param>This is a test of the voxcommando to sonos interface</param>
      <param>\\SAGE-MC\vera\test.wav</param>
    </params>
    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
  <action>
    <cmdType>Vera.Scene</cmdType>
    <params>
      <param>25</param>
    </params>
    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
</command>

You will need to change the Vera.Scene to match the Scene you create in step 3a. You will also need to change the location of the wav file for the TTS.Speak2Wav.

This is the second time I've posted this. The first time it got lost when I selected post. Hopefully this time it will post. If you have any question I will be happy to help if I can.

The above link will give some info on the vera side set up. I was not able to do the write up today, to busy. I will get to it tonight and should have it by tomarrow. Sorry for delay.

I did get the sonos to play a wav file from vc. You need to create a file and make sure it is in your sonos library. Then just keep writing what you want outputted to that same file. I will try to work up a complete process later today and post it.

VoxCommando Basics and Core Features / Re: voxCommando via http
« on: July 06, 2014, 07:01:24 AM »
Thanks everyone for your help.  I did get the terRemote working with voxcommando. I followed James and nime5ter recommendations. In terRemote set
type -> network/HTTP
server -> voxCommando
url  -> /api/VC.TriggerEvent&&event2trigger
port -> 8889
method -> get
variable -> none.
This works perfectly controlling my samsung tv using usb-uirt and a itach flex. As always great responsed on this forum and thanks James for a great program.

VoxCommando Basics and Core Features / voxCommando via http
« on: July 03, 2014, 09:37:45 AM »
James, it's been awhile since I have been able to mess around with voxcommando but am getting back into it. Looking forward to ver 2 final.  
I wanted to know if VC could be sent events or actions through http. I have a program on my android (terRemote) that can send http. It is a program that sends to eventghost. What I am trying to do is bypass the eventghost and go directly to VC. The advantage to terRemote is that you can design your own screen with the controls that you want to use. I need this for my wife because she does not like using the voice control and when it gets to loud in the house it would be nice for control.
Sorry for the long question. Any help would be appreciated. Again love the program and the forum.

Nime5ter,  Sorry for the late response. It is pretty hectic with xmas and all. But thank you for your answer to my problem. It was exactly what I needed. Also I would like to thank everyone for all the help that you have given me.This is a great forum.

Okay, now I feel like a complete dunce. I see where it is getting set in the history now. It is all so easy when you just think a little. Thanks for both of yours help.

James I was asking how VC knows. But let me try and find what Kallie and You are talking about and if I can't figure it out I will reply. Thanks for the quick response.
