Not getting it? Alexa "Could not find a computer with voice word.."
-
Not sure what I am not getting here. I installed the service on one PC/server "wademovies". I have setup just one commands to shutdown another PC on the network (shutdown /m \sicko /s /t 10) and called "shutdown media". When I try the linked Trigger CMD command on my Alexa it tells me "Could not find a computer with voice word media".
I have tried saying "turn off media on wademovies"... Is this what I have to do? I have tried a dozen times to point of about to put my Alexa through the wall but will not hear be say "wademovies" clearly at all. Always "white movies", "wide movies" etc... If it requires to be said like that can I change the computer name command? Like all my servers and PCs named stupidly and Aussie accent isn't helping things I think...

@wadeal, the point of the voice property of your computer is to specify something you can say to Alexa that makes it easy for her to recognize. So I recommend something simple in your computer's voice field like, "movies"
Alexa/Google Assistant/Cortana don't use the computer's name field, they use the voice field to find your computer.
Click the blue Edit button for your computer on the website to get to that voice trigger field.
