Ideally, I'd like to voice control my house much like your VoxCommando - Scenario: Coming Home from Work video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewCRJZKFW34).

When you said "Watch Television" (using VoxCommando windows app, correct?) at 3:03, the Hali Home Automation controller is then used so the remote can use IR commands to the TV?  Could you just use a Rii remote to eliminate the additional need for another Home Automation controller?  I am liking what I see and read about the Vera Lite, I just don't want to overcomplicate things.

I still like a hard press remote when I am watching TV so I like the flexibility you showed with the voice remote as well.  I just wonder if VoxCommando and the TV functions would work better with a Rii remote.

Lastly, that's pretty badass that VoxCommando integrates with the VeraLite... definitely something worth checking out.

Well bravo to your program and your devotion to the community/forums.  I checked out that video and I like what I see.

EDIT:
Is it possible to use VoxWav/Commando with Tasker/AutoVoice using Google Now to interpret the commands without delay?

I lol'd.

Where is the microphone that you are using to capture your voice?  Is it hooked up to a PC just in your room, can you configure others throughout the house, etc.?

Hi, I'm new to voice automation and I recently became familiar with Yatse.

How does VoxCommando compare to Yatse to those that have tried both?  I am using Tasker, Autovoice, and Yatse API to tell XBMC commands.  My one downside that I have with Yatse is that it needs to synchronize with the XBMC database.  i.e. I recently add a new movie, 'x'.  I have to sync Yatse with XBMC in order for the voice command: 'xbmc play movie x' to work.

Does VoxCommando have to synchronize to the XBMC database before calling a command or does VoxCommando initiate all commands directly to the database... being always synced?
