Hey all,=20
Long time reader, first time poster... blah, blah, blah. =3D )
I have recently gotten around to get MH up and running on my Server 2003
box and everything is going great! Setup was simple and uptime is
proving to be a non-issue. It's really quite amazing!
As I wait for my newly purchased X10 items, I've begun snooping around
in the code of MH. I'm a self taught programmer (basic, VB, C++) but
have never dabbled in Perl and I am, by far, not an expert. The code
looks pretty straight forward so I've decided I want to do some
customizing. I'm implementing a new weather command to get, parse, and
say the weather forecast discussion as well as the current conditions
and the forecast. (I'm a weather nut and like listening the bi-daily
forecast discussion). That's going well; however, my next project is a
little harder for me.
I'm using VR and TTS and both are working amazingly well. It accepts
the VR from across the kitchen, even using the cheap mic built into my
server monitor. However, there's no way for me to know when the
computer is listening to me... I'd like to play a wav file. I'd like to
leave the MS VR engine sitting in "listening" mode. I don't want the MS
engine worrying about switching back and forth from listening and not
listening so I'll just leave it in listening mode and I am going to have
MH handle that. My idea is to leave MH in MH's "not listening" mode all
the time. Then I'd like to speak a command, let's say "Computer" for
all the Trek geeks, and then I'd like to have MH play a little wav file
and go into listening mode for 3 seconds, and then default back to "not
listening". =20
After looking through the code, I came across the actual start/stop
listening code in the mh_control.pl. Would it be best to simply alter
the code there, change the voice trigger from "[Start, Stop] listening"
to "Computer" and modify the remaining code in this block:
if ($state =3D said $v_listen) {
if ($state eq 'Start') {
if ($v_listen->{set_by} =3D~ '^vr') {
&Voice_Cmd::wait_for_command(0);
}
$v_listen->respond('app=3Dcontrol Yes sir?');
}
else {
&Voice_Cmd::wait_for_command('Start listening');
$v_listen->respond('app=3Dcontrol I am not listening.');
}
}
Is that how you guys would handle this? Am I heading in the right
direction?
Thanks,
Corey
