@Russ said in PS4-Waker troubleshooting:

/usr/local/bin/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ps4-waker/dist/cli.js standby

Thank you very much. worked correctly.

Got a lot of issues with node + brew, this one worked like a charm for me:

osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to sleep'

@John-Paul, please try this in a .bat script:

taskkill /im spotify.exe start spotify:episode:0yAefXW3oX7WbliU0DU8QB ping localhost nircmd sendkeypress spc

@russ Thanks Russ!

@p2p, you should make it a foreground command.

If you're trying to have Windows automatically logon during boot, you should use this method instead.

@Russ I delete my computer from the trigger and then works the agente but I dont know anycommand not works if you can help me please

@Russ Ty.. works for me.. Now, I will try turn off this.. lol

Thanks @Xander. I'm glad that worked.

Think script worked pretty well for me. It does something similar to your use-case. It opens a Youtube video in a new Chrome window in a specific location on the screen, with specific dimensions, and presses the Like button.

It uses a Chrome dev tools console command to find the like button and click it.

"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --new-window https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1I9qC0Zo_PM timeout 4 REM x y width height nircmd win setsize stitle "Allow friends to control Spotify" 200 100 800 1000 nircmd win activate stitle "Allow friends to control Spotify" REM open dev tools nircmd sendkeypress F12 timeout 3 REM type document.querySelector('like-button-view-model button[aria-label*="like"]').click() nircmd sendkeypress d o c u m e n t 0xBE q u e r y Shift+s e l e c t o r Shift+0x39 0xDE l i k e 0xBD b u t t o n 0xBD v i e w 0xBD m o d e l spc b u t t o n 0xDB nircmd sendkeypress a r i a 0xBD l a b e l Shift+0x38 0xBB Shift+0xDE l i k e Shift+0xDE 0xDD 0xDE Shift+0x30 0xBE c l i c k Shift+0x39 Shift+0x30 REM press enter nircmd sendkeypress 0x0D timeout 1 REM close dev tools nircmd sendkeypress F12

It's a little low-tech because it simulates a lot of key presses. There's probably a better way using puppeteer or selenium but this works if you don't care.

@Russ That's what I ended up going with. One script & trigger to initiate and another one in the reverse. Thanks

@Zubairsk, where did you get that text? Do you live in the UK and got that somehow when you tried to find the TRIGGERcmd skill?

@Cristiano-Hoshikawa, I sent a refund for your subscription. Please try again after you make sure you can trigger commands on your computer.

@Martin-Musso, that's a cool idea. I did some research and figured out how to play a playlist and send the output to a Chromecast device:

"c:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" c:\playlists\playlist.xspf --sout="#chromecast{ip=192.168.86.25}" --demux-filter=demux_chromecast

But, I haven't figured out how to tell it to resume where it left off. This sortof worked, but only for the first thing in the playlist.

I tried this extension with no joy. https://addons.videolan.org/p/1154044/
If you do try it, you'll want to download it from the Files tab and manually drop it in
C:\Users(your user)\AppData\Roaming\vlc\lua\extensions
If you search and install it from within VLC you'll get an old version that's even worse.

Du kannst dein script ja so auslegen, das es eine statische Anzahl an Parametern gibt, wobei diese, bei "Nichtverwendung" gegebenenfalls mit einem Platzhalter/dummy bestückt werden.
Bei der anschließenden Auswertung im Script wären diese dann als "ungenutzt" markierten Parameter schlicht zu ignorieren. Oder ...
du flagst jeden Parameter explizit wie (AFAIK) unter Linux üblich mit einem Bezeichner:
"--drive C:" "--command defrag" "-time 20220916180000"
...und wertest dementsprechend aus.

AutoHotkey ist eine (open source) Scriptsprache, welche über die von Powershell bereitgestellten systemnahen Funktionen auch events auf application/desktop level steuern kann. Mehr dazu gibt es in den einschlägigen Fachzeitschriften wie der c´t, oder unter autohotkey.com
Natürlich lässt sich auch PowerShell damit kombinieren.

@russ
I must have something wrong. Ill check again.
thanks

@dan5150, wonder if you might have multiple TRIGGERcmd accounts, and your Alexa account is tied to the other TRIGGERcmd account?

Just brainstorming here.

If so, you could try unlinking and re-linking to your account.

EDIT: We figured it out - Dan had "shut down /s /t 30" as his command but he needed "shutdown /s /t 30". Notice the shutdown command shouldn't have a space it in. There's a shut down command in the Example commands BTW.

@zipster1967
do you have a video of how you did it? I have the same problem

@Ícaro-Paiv, as of today you'll also see the commands on "Other User's Computers" in the IFTTT list if you use the official TRIGGERcmd IFTTT integration.

Thanks @Richard-Binckley. I'm glad you guys like it.
