James,

Have any idea what the amulet remote would send the Tab command (fullscreen) when it's just jiggled or bumped. It's not in the upright position and the red light isn't on. It activates it's backlight feature and then sends the Tab command to Voxcommando. I don't want to delete the XBMC simple action because the 'Toggle Fullscreen' command gets used frequently. It's really annoying when you are watching a movie and someone kicks the remote on the couch.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,
Peter

I don't even know how this is possible.  Can you send a VC log, or a screenshot of the history window when it happens please?

James,

...when it's just jiggled or bumped... It's really annoying when you are watching a movie and someone kicks the remote..

Ha. There is a slight difference between jiggled, and kicked, but question is, is it hard enough to make the amulet think it is upright.  A log will help a lot.

Ok, I'll get screenshots and logs. I know it sounds crazy, but let's see what the logs say. Stay tuned...

Peter

I'll try and post a log as I've noticed this happening when my amulet is bumped

Noticed what exactly?  Would you mind explaining in your own words what happens? (posting a log as well would be great) 

I bump the table that my amulet is on, it's laying down horizontally and I see "tab" display on XBMC. This doesn't happen after every bump though

Here's the log:

Thanks.  Should be easy enough to fix this by deleting that command.

- click edit
- open the group: XBMC New Misc
- right-click the command "Tab Key" and choose "Delete"

save and close.

I'm not really sure why that command is in there since we have the "toggle fullscreen" command which does the same thing.

Change made and thanks

now while watching a movie in XBMC it showed "go back", didn't bump the remote or anything

If it is lying on its back and the light is off, then it should be off.  I don't know what to tell you, unless it is not really on its back or you have another microphone that is listening or your accelerometer is broken.  If your accelerometer were broken though, I think you would be able to see that the amulet light is turning red to show that the microphone is on.

You could always use the amulet usb monitor and use it to switch VC on and off.  It is much less likely to be able to turn on fast enough to react to a little jiggle, but if your remote thinks it is on when it is horizontal and not being touched then who knows.

For a brief description of what's in the VoxCommando Extras download, see: http://voxcommando.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Installation#VoxCommando_Extras

FWIW I have always used the usb monitor and I have never had this problem.

I'll keep monitoring it. It has happened once in the last hour and I've been putting VC through its paces with XBMC. A variety of TV shows, Movies and lots of different songs..

I'll work on collecting more data but of note I have not seen the red light go on when phantom commands are sent

I installed the USB Monitor but it appears that I have to wait longer than I'm used to give a command?
How long after the Amulet is vertical do you speak your command?
