Intent to toggle screengrabber #129

Closed whatdaybob closed 5 years ago

whatdaybob commented 5 years ago

Hi, I am having trouble using the new toggleactivity on Nvidia Shield, I have tried every possible combination of adb command to try and turn on and off the screengrabber except the correct way, I was hoping to integrate this into homeassistant. Can you please point me in the right direction to control the app via ADB commands as I cant read code well enough to figure this out.

Hey there @whatdaybob

I believe the adb command would be: adb shell am start com.abrenoch.hyperiongrabber.tv/com.abrenoch.hyperiongrabber.common.ToggleActivity

Just let me know if that doesn't work and we'll figure it out!

Edit (just because you mentioned you are trying to interface with smart house controls): What I did to control my LEDs with my google home was to just buy one of those little smart outlets from amazon and wire just the LED PSU to it. This lets my hyperion instance run on a rpi0 (powered separately) while I just let the screen grabber always run on my shield, then I can just turn the power to the LEDs on/off via my google home. Just a tip if you are looking to achieve that!

Note that the Toggle Activity is only available in the TV build

Thanks, I will give it a go this weekend. Good suggestion on the remote power, I will consider that as an alternative, ideally I would like the ambilight to be on all times but to change to grabber mode when I have my android tv as the active input. This should hopefully accomplish that.

Closing out this issue, if there is still a problem just re-open
