RE: Set Windows volume to X
@Xander ok, so, after doing some more research and trying other things, this was what I was doing wrong:
I discovered that the SmartHome skill isn't capable of parsing params like numbers, only on and off. So I have to use the Execute Command skill, right?
And probably, when parsing numbers to Alexa, she sends it written (maybe?!) to the triggercmd, so I added in my batch script, some lines to transform the written numbers into numerical ones.
And now it's working, but it is still a lot of work having to say "Alexa, ask Execute Command to open computer's volume with parameter X" or in pt-br that is my native language "Alexa, abra execute comando e execute volume do computador com parĂ¢metro X"
Is there a plan to implement others params in SmartHome skill? Or is there a way to use IFTTT to make this sentece shorter?
Thanks.

RE: Set Windows volume to X
@Xander The problem isn't about how to do the command to change the volume, but if there's a way to pass the parameter someway so I don't have to say "Alexa, ask TriggerCMD to set computer's volume with parameter 80" but just "Alexa, set computer's volume to 80"
I setted up the command with the NirCMD, and using the command line in windows i can change the volume with the %1 and putting the param after the command, but i tried with alexa, saying "Alexa, turn computer's volume with parameter 80" and she reply something like "Computer's volume isn't compatible with this"
PS: computer's volume is the voice option in the triggercmd command
PS2: i'm using alexa in pt-br, maybe the params with alexa in portuguese isnt avaible? -
Set Windows volume to X
Hi, i used the high volume command that has in the examples with the smarthome alexa skill, but i'd like to say a specific volume, something like "Alexa, set the volume of computer to X".
I read the sending params topic, but i dont want to have to say "ask triggercmd to set te volume with the parameter 80".
Is there a way? Thanks a lot.
