Okay,

I just tested both of the copies that I posted in the forum and I'm not able to recreate that issue,

you could try a couple different things

you could delete the entire group and log file and then re-download the xml file and follow the instructions and then try it again to see if that helps

or you could try and delete the "payloadDictation: Regular" at the bottom of the "Remind me" Command and replace it with a payload list and add in a couple of phrases like:

walk the dog, take out the trash, feed the dog

and then save it and try those phrases to see if that takes care of the problem

deleted and re installed the file.  I had to delete the "payloadDictation: Regular" and add a new payload list with the phrases that you suggested.  Seems to be working that way.  Thanks for all your help.

that is odd,

using the Payload list should work well, you just have to create your own list of things that you would set reminders for

and I'm glad to here it is working for you :D

Is there a way to pause or softmute the volume if xbmc is playing before the reminder is spoken?  I tried changing the "0" to "1" but that didnt work.

in the commands I upload there are xjson actions to pause and unpause what ever is playing in XBMC/KODI and OSD popups for XBMC/KODI in the "Reminder is done" command you should have 4 disabled actions



in order for the pause function to work you need to enable the first 3 actions

if you want the popup window in XBMC/KODI you need to enable the 4th action down from the top

that is odd, I think I saw on here a while ago that payloadDictation: Regular only works with English as the primary language but I couldn't find that post so I thought I was wrong

Hi PegLeg,

Nice to see you on the boards again.  :)

payloadDictation works with the SAPI 5 engine (voxcommando.exe) in all of the 6-ish  languages supported.

It's not supported in the alternate Speech Platform 11 engine (voxcommandoSP.exe) -- in English or any other language.

When SP users import commands that use payload dictation, that payload is highlighted in bright yellow in their command tree and a rollover alerts them that dictation is not supported in SP.

TIPS: POST VC VERSION #. Explain what you want VC to do. Say what you've tried & what happened, or post a video demo. Attach VC log. Link to instructions followed.  Post your command (xml)

PegLegTV

thanks for the correction, I wasn't 100% sure on that, I'll try and add a note to the first post about using the SP version tomorrow (later this morning after some sleep ::zzz)

and its nice to be back, we moved last week, we bought a forclosure so we didn't have internet for over a week (I was going through withdaw  :bonk) I'll try and get on every day but now that I have another house to fix up it might be hard at times

I feel like a bloody idiot. I keeping getting "invalid xml" whenever I try to paste it into my editor.

PegLegTV

Have you tried dragging it on to your command tree instead of copy and paste

Follow exact these steps: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L6NNvKGtbOU


Get sure that you insert the group on a free place and not over the top of a other command group.
Do not edit this payload in a editor like notepad or similar.

I really wish I knew what people were doing to generate this error.  If someone could create a video showing all the steps they are taking I would appreciate it.

if I try and copy and paste a downloaded group I don't get "invalid xml" but I get "Empty xml" if you need a video of that let me know and i can take a quick video for you

jitterjames

Not necessary Pegleg, thanks.

Instructions  in the wiki and videos are clear.

Either:
- Copy and paste XML from a code box
- or for a file attachment,  download it and then drag it into your tree.

You can't copy and paste a file.  If you try to the error you get will depend on what text is already on your clipboard.

RickyD333

Oh I see. If it's in a code box you can copy and past but if it isn't you have to drag it in. I was just downloading it, selecting all text, copy and paste, then I would get the error. I see the mess up now. Why would it be different? Sorry, I don't know how xml's or any sort of code really works.
