Thanks John. I just re-read my post and I noticed this forum software (NodeBB) removed the backslashes that are required to "escape" the command to make it compatible with the json format.

So here it is again with the backslashes. Please try this instead:

{"trigger":"Dropbox","command":"\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Dropbox\\Client\\Dropbox.exe\" \/home","ground":"foreground","voice":"drop box"},

I used http://www.freeformatter.com/json-escape.html to escape the escaped version so it will show up with the backslashes.

@Nate-Hales you said "I have alexa on the "Line in" with "Listen" enabled, so I can hear her and whatever is running on my windows 10"

I tried this with alexa and got some odd noises when she was listening so i had to unplug her. Did you have that problem and find a fix or just didnt have it? im in the same setup.. htpc does all the sound.

Great idea @Xander-Warrender! I added this to the examples list in the GUI editor.

Here's a URL to cleanmgr docs: https://ss64.com/nt/cleanmgr.html

cleanmgr = Automated cleanup of Temp files, Internet files, downloaded files, recycle bin.

Run this to bring up the GUI and setup profile #1:

cleanmgr /sageset:1

This command runs profile #1:

cleanmgr /sagerun:1

This is what the GUI looks like:

@nate-hales said in MonoAMP from monoprice 6 zone amplifier:

Check out this video for detailed instructions:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHB_gjc1w8Q

Change volume of a zone:

curl "http://localhost:50233/api/Value?Channel=0&command=Volume&value=15"

Change input (aka channel) of zone 0:

curl "http://localhost:50233/api/Value?Channel=0&Property=CH&value=1"

Power on zone 0:

curl "http://localhost:50233/api/Value?Channel=0&Property=PR&value=1"

Are these the only commands that you have?

Thanks

Ken

@a-mcf, I hope you don't mind. I re-formatted your post a little bit. I just added ``` before and after the big code block to make it look like code.

Also, nice job on the movie player script!

@chaochao-yan, I tested it, and it worked for me on my Windows 10 PC.

I had to close and re-open the TRIGGERcmd agent before I could run python commands because when you install python it adds itself to your PATH environment variable, but environment variables don't get updated for each process until you restart them.

Anyway, here's my test python script in case you're interested:

f= open("c:\\users\\russe\\test.txt","w+") for i in range(10): f.write("This is line %d\r\n" % (i+1)) f.close()

Here's my command that TRIGGERcmd ran:

python c:\users\russe\test.py

@marcelo-v, did you see this post yet?

You should be able to find it just by saying, "Hey Google, talk to trigger C M D."

You might actually prefer the new TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill.

@benzil, I switched to a computer where Groove is my default mp3 player, and it worked for me to use the quoted full path to he mp3 file, but then I googled and found this page that suggested this command line:

cmd /c start "explorer.exe shell:C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.ZuneMusic_3.6.25021.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.ZuneMusic" "C:\Users\Russ\Music\03 - Take a Chance on Me.mp3"

@Russ You are AWESOME!!! Thank you sir!

@fcovalls, that's odd. It worked for me as a background command. It should work because background commands run in the context of the TRIGGERcmdAgent Windows service which runs as Local System, which should allow elevated commands to run.

This is what I see in the log when I ran it via TRIGGERcmd:

@bignoob, does it work if you run the command yourself, in a cmd window?

You can copy that chromedriver exe into a new folder, then add that folder to your PATH environment variable, or just copy the exe into C:\windows folder which is already in your PATH by default.
