Start netflix app

Tribo

and in the case when the application name is long, like: Amazon Prime Video for Windows?

Russ

@Tribo, long is ok, but that one is actually short:

start primevideo:

Tribo

Very simple ... lol
Thank you.

How to execute close prime video?

Russ

@Renan-Paes, this worked for me:

taskkill /f /im primevideo.exe

Nico

@Russ a mi tampoco me funciona, lo he hecho tal cual dijeron.

Russ

@Nico, are you able to manually run Netflix? It looks like it's not installed. You can install it from the Windows app store.

@Russ is it possible to have the Amazon Prime app (on Windows) launch and begin playing a specific title?

Russ

@Rex-Bones, I made this AutoIt script and compiled it to a Windows .exe file. It takes a parameter for what you want to search for and play in Amazon Prime Video (installed from the Windows App store). I also made this video to demo it.

ShellExecute ( "primevideo:" )

Sleep(2000)  ; wait 2 seconds for Prime Video to start

WinActivate ( "Amazon Prime Video" )
$pos = WinGetPos("Amazon Prime Video")

$x = 120
$y = 150
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)  ; click the Search box

Send("^a") ; Select all text, in case something was typed in the Search box already.

;;; For testing:   Send("the boys season 1{ENTER}")

Send($CmdLine[1] & "{ENTER}")   ; type the first parameter of the .exe, and press enter

Sleep(2000)  ; wait 2 seconds

$x = 550
$y = 250
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)  ; click the show icon

Sleep(1500) ; wait 1.5 seconds

$x = 450
$y = 515
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)   ; click Watch now

@Russ How can I do the same, but instead from the windows app, from the Chrome browser and my prime video account.
Thanks

I have already learned it by myself, thank you very much even so for the program.
A question? I registered with the same email as the PayPal account, how can I change it, if possible? Thanks again.

@Russfor netflix how can i do the same to start it suits for example

Russ

@Quasar-07, I'm glad you figured out the first question. About changing your account's email address - you can't. The email address you opened the account with is tied to that account. You'd have to subscribe the other account, and then cancel the first one. You'd want to do that near your anniversary date to save some money.

Russ

@Anthony-Gustavo, here's a similar script for Netflix:

ShellExecute ( "netflix:" )

Sleep(2000)  ; wait 2 seconds for Prime Video to start

WinActivate ( "Netflix" )
$pos = WinGetPos("Netflix")

$x = 1797
$y = 63
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)  ; click the Search box

;suits
Send("^a") ; Select all text, in case something was typed in the Search box already.

Sleep(2000)  ; wait 2 seconds

;;; For testing:     ;; Send("suits{ENTER}")

Send($CmdLine[1] & "{ENTER}")   ; type the first parameter of the .exe, and press enter

Sleep(2000)  ; wait 2 seconds

$x = 194
$y = 248
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)  ; click the show icon

Sleep(1500) ; wait 1 seconds

$x = 961
$y = 220
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y)   ; click Watch now

Here's a link to the two compiled .exe files:
Prime
Netflix

@Russ For me is happening this error

ShellExecute ( "netflix:" )

Sleep(2000) ; wait 2 seconds for Prime Video to start

WinActivate ( "Netflix" )
$pos = WinGetPos("Netflix")

$x = 1764
$y = 72
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y) ; click the Search box

;suits
Send("^a") ; Select all text, in case something was typed in the Search box already.

Sleep(2000) ; wait 2 seconds

;;; For testing: ;; Send("suits{ENTER}")

Send($CmdLine[1] & "{ENTER}") ; type the first parameter of the .exe, and press enter

Sleep(2000) ; wait 2 seconds

$x = 231
$y = 289
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y) ; click the show icon

Sleep(1500) ; wait 1 seconds

$x = 962
$y = 268
MouseClick("left", $pos[0] + $x, $pos[1] + $y) ; click Watch now

I changed my coordinates, can you create an .exe for me or tell me which program you use? And also how do I configure the command in Triggercmd?

Russ

@Anthony-Gustavo, it's getting that error because this line is expecting a parameter:

Send($CmdLine[1] & "{ENTER}")

You can compile that script to an .exe with AutoIT.

The command in the TRIGGERcmd GUI editor would either be:

C:\Users(your user)\netflix.exe suits

... if you want your command to always search for suits, or:

  C:\\Users\\(your user)\\netflix.exe

If you want to pass suits or something else as a parameter. For that, don't forget to flip Allow parameters to true.
