Our neighbors aren't close enough to do trick or treating since we moved to a more rural area, so we don't do as much as we used too. But we made up for it during Christmas. Here's a link to one of our videos. Bonus Points: Some of it is run by Insteon and my ISY. ?

Glad to help. HA is very powerful, but has a long way to go for setting things up with the UI vs yaml.

That's not quite true. There is, but they don't make it as easy or obvious as the ISY does. In the trigger section of your automation select event and pick isy994_control. Here's a snippet from one of mine. Bonus Points: This one is a KPL. Just use the entity_id of the device you want to use. Hopefully this helps a bit. Here's the link to the docs with all of the options to watch for. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/isy994/ platform: event event_type: isy994_control event_data: entity_id: sensor.lr2_h_good_night control: DOF

Fixed for me as well. Thanks

Running Firefox v 71.0 (64 bit). Just started today.

Seeing the same thing.

I use a raspberry pi to play my notifications through a NR. It'll only play prerecorded sounds and announcements though. Here's the link to the setup guide. Just a heads up, Looks like OpenELEC has become unsupported. LibreELEC is the current supported fork and uses the same API.

Here is the link to the post with all of the instructions to set up Jullie HERE

Does the scene work with you activate it from the admin console? Make sure to select the red (Controller) device under each scene and verify the settings match what you want. Chances are you only set the top level scene and that's why.

I just noticed that. It's in both places on my iPhone. They take you to the same place.

Amazon has finally added the routines ability. I have one that runs my good night program. Now you just say "Good Night" rather than turn on good night. Much higher WAF. Currently it lists News, Smart Home, Traffic, and Weather as available options to add to your routine. Routines is listed in the Alexa app under settings.

Glad you got it fixed. At 400 you definitely have more files than I do.

Open the file in Audacity, Select the entire track. Just double click to highlight it all. Select Effect and then Amplify from the top menu. I usually leave the settings at default to avoid clipping on the audio file.

You can use Audacity and amplify the offending audio file. I actually did all mine that way. It will default to the highest level without clipping, so that when you play them back they are consistent.

I wrote up a guide a while back to use a pi to do my alerts. You can find it here Hopefully it helps.

Here you go. /jsonrpc?request={%22jsonrpc%22:%222.0%22,%22id%22:1,%22method%22:%22Player.Open%22,%22params%22:{%22item%22:{%22file%22:%22special://profile/playlists/music/Test.xsp%22},%22options%22:{%22repeat%22:%22all%22}}} You'll have to create a Smart Playlist first. http://kodi.wiki/view/Smart_playlists Mine was named test. The good news is it will continue to play even with play next turned off. Next you may need a Stop NR when you are done listening. /jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.Stop", "params": { "playerid": 1 }, "id": 1}

Post #14 of this thread.

I never thought about the random announcements........ But you can place a variable in a network resource. I wrote a quick program to generate a random number and put it in a variable. Then placed that variable into the NR. So I tested it and it works!! Now I'm making 12 folders for the months so that I can have different sounds based on the months. Thanks for the great idea. I updated the set up guide if anyone wants to add this to theirs as well.

Glad to hear you have it all working. I have been editing my initial setup guide as we have been troubleshooting. Hopefully I've captured most of the steps.

LOL That is awesome! I'm guessing you are now able to have it work via a NR?

Do you still have the Pi hooked up to a monitor? Could you verify if it is showing the file playing on the screen when you call the resource. EDIT: I think I know what it is. Stupid mistake on my part. System>Settings>Remote Control> Turn on both options. System>Settings>Web Server>Allow remote control>On I usually turn those on when I set them up but forgot to mention it. I bet that's what it is.

Sure. It's the API for all the commands for Kodi. I'll warn you, it is tough to figure out. My version of Kodi on openelec is Jarvis 16.1 which is the stable load. http://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC_API/v6 You can test your link by trying in a web browser. So. 192.168.1.137/jsonrpc?request={%22jsonrpc%22:%222.0%22,%22id%22:%221%22,%22method%22:%22Player.Open%22,%22params%22:{%22item%22:{%22file%22:%22storage/music/Entry_MS_Low_Battery.wav%22}}} That will play it without the ISY and give you a good test.

Just to be sure.... Is the test file named exactly like you have in your NR? even the .wav needs to match. If you do, maybe remove the underscores from both the file on the Pi and your NR and see if that will cause it to fire.

When you switch between HDMI and analog you will have to change the setting in the system menu to reflect that change. Unfortunately it doesn't auto detect. All of my files on the Pi have underscores (ex. walk_the_dog) Also the filenames are case sensitive. So Mail is different to mail

Nothing was selected in the add window. I'm not sure why it says Content Length = 0. I just made a fresh NR and it did not add that line. It worked with no trouble. Must have been leftover from my testing. Safe to ignore.
