Re: Housebot Rendering Mapbox & Video feeds

Tony, I haven't checked out the Kodi update, so hopefully everything still works fine. I think Node-RED is a great addition that can help fill in many areas that HouseBot doesn't directly address. I know people have done some pseudo-mapping in the remotes by using server based scripts and image crea...

Re: HB Server crashing repeatedly

Steve,

Glad to hear it's working for you so far.

Is this on Windows 10? Do you know the security update number? I see that KB4577671 installed for me on the 15th and I haven't had an issue with it so far. If you can verify the update number, I can try and look into it more.

Re: HB Server crashing repeatedly

Steve, See if anything new has been installed by sorting on installed date from the Windows control panel "uninstall a program" app. Maybe something got inadvertently installed that is causing the problem. Are there any dump files being generated? Record the times of the crash and see if t...

Re: Task delay based on device Value

I think you would have to have the Task run a script that could then handle the work (trigger, Property Value query for delay, delay in script, trigger).

Re: Google Assistant Device Type

That's just HouseBot's way to try and match up it's Devices with the devices supported by Google / Amazons voice services. You can customize a few of the setup for a device (or set the type to 'None' to hide it from the voice service) in the Settings.../Voice Services Setup dialog off the main menu.

Re: Winamp control: Playing/Stop

Looking at the system log at HB startup, no errors seen. I did notice that the two Winamp startup log entries look "normal" but the WinampDevice.Dll is in the Devices directory, not the Winamp_plugins subdir. Normal? Yes, that is correct. Should Winamp start when HB starts? Doesnt here. D...

Re: Winamp control: Playing/Stop

In my quick testing, it seemed to work ok. I was able to start the stream playing from the Play Source property and then play/pause/stop it using the Status property. I may be doing something differently, or missing something. A couple of things to check. Make sure only one instance of WinAmp is run...

Re: Winamp control: Playing/Stop

Steve,

Can you give me a URL where you are seeing this issue? I've never really streamed music from a URL in WinAmp, so I'm not really sure how to test this for you.

Re: Is the getGenre on Kodi Connector just for music?

I'll have to blow the dust off my Kodi setup and look into it. Shouldn't be too big of a deal.

I'll send you a DM when I have something.

Re: Is the getGenre on Kodi Connector just for music?

Yes, just for music.

I could look into adding another Genre for music if you need it.
