Ok, will have a look at training on the weekend
The only thing from the help that didn't work as I expect it to is "finde ungesehene episoden von x" (find unwatched episodes of x). This always takes me to the series overview, but not to the details of a series ...

Yeah I get 70% most of the time, but I think my microphone doesn't record loud enough (it works well with these settings in all other programs, so I won't change it). I will try to change it to WifiRemote.

It's working now Had to lower the accept rate to about 40%, but it gets me right anyway.
Just having some problems with "move left", "move right" and so on, they are sometimes recognized but don't do anything?

Playing a movie with "Spiele Film xy" (play movie xy) is working, too. Is there a list of available commands?

It doesn't work for me, but I am no sure if that is a more general problem.
After install I get the attached error. Also clicking on some menu options crashes the application. Also in the history there is a null pointer exception.

This goes away after I active the MP plugins and "build missing grammars". But then none of my commands is recognized. I guess this is due to me having a German Windows 7 Professional with only the German speech recognition and I found no way to install the English package :-/

Any ideas?

Here's the *unofficial* new version of the wifiremote plugin.  Unzip and place the .dll in the folder (or equivalent for your system):

Code Select Expand

C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\process

I'm not sure if you need to install the older version of the plugin first, but it won't hurt to do that to be safe.

The installer also copies a WifiRemote.xml keymap file to your MediaPortal\defaults\InputDeviceMappings folder (or InputDeviceMappings\defaults on older MP versions). Without that file commands like left, right, up, down, ok ... will not work.
I will release a new version of WifiRemote tomorrow or on the weekend containing all the changes needed to make this work. It will be Wifiremote version 0.5, keep an eye open for it on our Google Code Page, the MediaPortal download site or in your MediaPortal Extension Installer software.

And now I gotta go install voxcommando and try that sweet thing out :-D

Oh wow, I thought I subscribed to this thread ... Sorry for not answering here!
If you want to see your code in the official WifiRemote just open issues on Google Code and attach patch files. If you are interested I can give you write access to svn after some patches when we are on the same page coding-style-wise ;-)

Let me know if I can help with anything, even if I don't answer in IRC I will read it later on. And of course I can help beta test if you want me! Your progress sounds really intriguing.

Bye,

Hi there,

I am one of the developers of WifiRemote.
Your project sounds really interesting and I would love to see support for MediaPortal. So let's see, what we can do to make that work :-)

You are right that most commands that can be sent with WifiRemote are quite basic. The plugin was planned as a "dumb" interface between networked applications and MediaPortal and is mostly used by mobile apps (CouchPotato, aMPdroid) to simulate a normal remote control.

More data-centric work is done with a different plugin, GMA Webservices (will be deprecated by MP-Extended soon). This is a windows service that has access to MediaPortals databases and therefor knows about the actual content. The way to go (in my oppinion) is to query GMA/MP-Extended for the media file you want to play and then tell WifiRemote to do it. I am unsure if GMA already has search capabilities, but they have some very active and helpful developers, so that should be doable.

If you want to talk join us on IRC (#mp-extended @ irc.freenode.net). (Disclaimer: I am not a developer of GMA, so no guarantuees there! But I will help you with WifiRemote as good as I am able to.)
