    • RE: Central Server to send commands to multiple PCs

      @Russ Yes, that gets the download, but I was looking for installation instructions to get it added to the recognized commands. So what I did to get it to work was to copy the tcmd-windows-amd64.exe to the C:\AHK\ folder and rename it to tcmd.exe

      Then I entered the command as this:
      C:\AHK\tcmd.exe --computer "RAB-DVR" --trigger "Dog the Bounty Hunter"

      So there must be a way to eliminate the path to the tcmd.exe and treat it like an internal or external command. I never done that manually as installers usually do it.

      But anyway I have the tcmd method working thanks.

      PS Edit:
      One other thing, I was not sure about the computer name, but after trying the "samsung" voice name, I changed it to the "RAB-DVR" network name and it worked.

      @Russ Well, it appears the alexa software in order to accommodate several different phrases to do specific commands, there is not much a third party can do about it. Seems like just using "Channel" or "Select Channel" will cause alexa to try to attribute te command to a fire TV device. I have run into other conflicts like trying a command "run Judy Justice" and it would try to bring up the prime TV judy justice channel on my Echo Show! Ended up using "run Barbara's Judy Justice" and it works fine.
      Thanks again for this great software package. I have a combination of TP-Link light switches and X10 light switches and using your software allows me to alexa connect the X10 switches saving me from changing them out.
