Hi Most channels work and some don't. b.e.t. is one example that does not. I also added hgtv and it does not work. I added the channels to the index file and to the Control List. But some don't work. Any ideas?

bklavet commented 6 years ago

You may have to alter the index and control list values to match your speech. Y can test Alexa by asking Alexa Simon say b.e.t. and see what she responds. Hgtv is built into the skill already.

Another idea would be placing b.e.t. in the simulator and see how it is being sent to was, and alter the index to match..... same with hgtv. I can check it later

so this is the beta simulator and I used my mic and asked it to change to hgtv and it is sending off to lambda h.g.t.v. update you index file case to look like this. case "h.g.t.v.": case "hgtv": path = '/tv/tune?major=229';

break;

then see if you have any luck

Thanks will do.

OK it worked. Also, I noticed the index file does not have the path for volume or mute. Do you have these?

bklavet commented 6 years ago

excellent question Stinky2! the volume and mute are IR to your tv. the DTV does not control volume or mute, so there is no command to do that. I had not realized how powerful of a tool the beta test simulator is, especially with the mic input. A great way to tweak this to every users advantage, I may make a quick video talking about it. DO you think that would be helpful?

Thanks for checking backing. B

Yep, I think that would be a pretty cool. Some channels are still not fully processing for me but am tweaking as I go.
