Powershell with KODI: Parameters never work unless they are a single character
I use a series of PowerShell scripts to control Kodi in windows. This particular one has param enabled and should perform a "global search" on device: Master with Voice Word: Searching (search is used by something else).
param([string]$search)
$wshell = New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;
$wshell.AppActivate('kodi') ## opens the active kodi window ##
Sleep 1
$wshell.SendKeys('{/}') ## sends the hot key to open global search ##
Sleep 1
$wshell.SendKeys("$search") ## sends value of the parameter ##
sleep 1
$wshell.SendKeys('{enter}') ## presses enter ##- When I run this from the triggercmd GUI it works exactly as expected.
- When I try "... with parameter X." it works and does a search for anything named "X."
- If i try any word for example "Hercules" it wont work.
if I try
"Alexa, ask TRIGGERcmd to run searching on master with parameter Hercules." (should search for anything named Hercules)Alexa says
"I cannot find a computer with the voice word master Hercules. -
Trigger Android to launch app from windows
I have a Amazon Fire 8 tablet mounted to my wall. I used triggercmd to create a switch in alexa so I can say "alexa, turn on kodi".
I want the tablet to automatically open "Kore" or "Yatse" (companion apps) when Kodi opens on my windows PC.
Using a "custom command" in kodi only works with apps that came from the Alexa apps store. Has anyone done something like this?

"alexa or google will say this AFTER it runs"
is it possible to get alexa to say something AFTER your script runs?
