I also have fixed resume support for movies and need to add support for TV shows as well as fixed the ability to play the next episode of a TV show. For now the TV show is limited to playing the first unwatched episode, if you are all caught up this isn't an issue but if you have any unwatched episodes it will play them. Hopefully I can get that fixed as I would expect it to play the most recent unwatched episode or what Plex considers on deck.

I may tackle music here soon as I am getting back into the swing of home automation with voxcommando.
Along with Plex I want to write a script to better interface with Openhab easily.

Hey whats up man great to see this is still being worked on. i hate XBMC and cant wait to use this with my plex library. Im having some issues getting this running though. It seems like everything is firing properly but its just not starting the shows on my devices.

My client list is being populated and ive chosen different players from PHT to roku to chromecast but none seem to work. Cant wait to hear a reply back on this. This will give me reason to start using voxcommando again for playing my media, i had to resort to voice control for plex for sooo long now and it totally sucks having to use a seperate device to control plex. Again i surely appreciate the hard work put into the project.

Do you have any output in our logs as to why it's not working? What commands are you trying to say?

Which part is not working, did you run the main scripts to get a key and get clients and such? Any errors in VC would help as well.

Another option is just to set up the second VC with the same basic configuration as the first VC but you'll have to make various adjustments depending on what stuff you are controlling.

I tried that route as well and syncing multiple map files and groups is somewhat annoying however it seems to give me the most control.

I tried doing the WAV forwarding first and it works fine however the audio output is on the Main VC server and not on the remote end. Is there a quick way to force the TTS to use the remote machine instead?

Thanks! I will have to try that out this weekend. Does our license to VC cover multiple installs?

I have used VC for a while but I love the idea of doing always listening commands as well. I liked that with CastleOS you can use any pc in your house with a kinect and speak to it. What I didn't like is the lack of plugins and scripting power as well as weird false positives and other gripes. Does anyone know of software out there that can act like Voxwav but on a PC? I would love to just use my existing pc's, microphones, and speakers inside my house.

Ok so I think I have it cleaned up enough for someone to test if they want.

First I have installed VoxCommando in the c:\voxcommando folder, you will need to create 2 new folders inside that directory called PY and PlexPayloads. Copy plexAuth.py and getMovieOffset.py into the PY folder and modify using your plex.tv username and password so you can generate an auth token needed to access your server.

Import the VC XML I have attached and you will just need to change the "Generate PLEX map" script inside "PLEX admin 2.0.0" to include your server IP and port.

Once that is done you can run the Generate Auth token script, then "Generate PLEX map", and the "Generate plex xml vc2.0.0" script. By default the script will choose the first client on your network as the default client so you can say "Play movie spaceballs" and it will select the first client. You can also specify client names "Play movie spaceballs on bedroom roku" Or you can run the default client script and you can select a different default client. I haven't used it in a while and I think that resuming was working as well by saying "Resume, film or movie, then the movie title"

It should find your movie libraries and tv libraries automatically and if you have multiples of each like I do it will combine all movies and all tv shows. It will do the same for clients in your house which need to be running when you generate plex map and generate client payloads. once the payloads are saved and as long as the client is accessible you should not have to run generate client payload unless your client names change.

Music payloads are not working as I don't use plex for music at all so I apologize for that, it should be simple using my code as a base for adding that feature.

Many thanks to vulcanjedi and nime5ter for base code snippets and ideas as well as other people in the forums. Let me know if you have questions, comments, or feedback and I would be happy to help modify for fix issues or explain any methods to my madness.

I use Openhab as the center of my home automation which is a combination of arduinos using the Mysensors libraries, the Hue hub and bulbs and a few GE smart bulbs. Openhab has a web API which can be easily accessed using Voxcommando so I can ask, what's the weather outside and it can pull data directly from my HA controller via web scrape and tell me the conditions from my arduino node. Voxcommando also can control all the lights in my house, garage door, etc... using the same web API.

Yeah I made more progress but then got distracted with life as usual. Give me a few days of tinkering to clean it up and I can release what I have so far which is at least functional.

Ahh, yeah that would make more sense. I use ipsec at work which is routed vs pptp being point to point. Difference is your device will pull an ip usually inside the endpoints network. It would be nice if vc and vw used tcp but socket programming is another beast. I am using vw and vc as a replacement for privacy invading things like Google voice searches or other tts and stt engines so I would love an always accessible option for vw and vc. I use it to get the weather, Control my home automation and a few others.

yeah i already purchased VC and VW pro as i will be using them a lot. I was using a VPN at work and had issues with TTS but have not created a direct VPN to my firewall which I will be trying soon. So far I am loving both softwares and find the accuracy rate pretty high but I am still learning and figuring out better and better ways of doing things every day. TTS works fine when I am home and my home network has full access to work but I am not sure how well the broadcasts work. UDP doesn't like to traverse subnets very well without some hackery. Were you using a PPTP or IPSEC VPN?

Thank you very much good sir, This will help a lot in my home automation integration.

Sweet Thank you, that did work but it's a little touchy, I wish you could specify a bridge command like and or something to string multiples together. But for now it works just fine. I may eventually switch to tasker instead of voxwav but that is for another day.

On a side note you know you need more caffeine when you troubleshoot your play command for an hour only to realize you had a ? where you needed a &... Making good progress on the scripts for Plex and should need some testers next week sometime.

Isn't the payload for an event {1}, how can you capture that to use inside another command?
