Python Plugin: Domoticz-Google-Plugin

[tjabas]

anyone got this plugin working?

the audio notifications works ony once.

or is there another similar working plugin?

@tjabas,

Audio works pretty well for me although because the audio is created on the internet sometimes timing is an issue.

Can you turn on debugging on the plugin and post the log?

[tjabas]

thank you for your answer, i havent got the plugin installed yet, but im thinking of install it again tonight, if it looks to be the timing issue you talked about, where can i change the setting for that?

Hi all,

I got the plugin working, adding devices, and controlling volume of the casts. Very nice! However, I can't find any Play, Pause, Next buttons. Where are they located?

[tjabas]

Hi!


is there a way to disable the plugin from searching for new devices?

i have a smart tv with chromecast built in, this chromecast in the tv i dont use, and the tv is only on for a couple of hours every night, the problem is that when i turn on the tv this google plugin sees the tv and ads the tv in domoticz, but when the tv is of i constantly get messages in the log that the tv is unavalible, can i disable this somehow?

Is there a way to change to another voice when google talks back?
i have it set to swedish, and that women sounds slightly retarded

Or how can i get the voice to speak English instead?

[tjabas]

is it possible to add several voice/devices?
so i can get the same spoken audio notification in several other google homes?
i have tried with a speakergroup i made in the google home app, its works for a while but the volume on each device included in the group i getting lower and lower after each voice notification, very strange

This plugin seems not to support Google Nest Hub:

Code: Select all

Hello,
I have the following issues with the plugin: -

When i enable or disable the plugin under "Hardware", my whole Domoticz crashes....
The plugin stops working after <24 hours, all the devices turn red
It only plays the first message then nothing
Long messages (over 5 - 6 words) are truncated, the mp3 file gets deleted while playing.

i had the same problem, mine also chrashed and the spoken audio chrashed, but after i updated domoticz to the latest stable version it suddenly worked.

Buster image (May 2020)

I've got multiple nest devices in my house. I made a speakergroup in de google home app and changed the setting voice device/group to the speakergroup.
When i send a notification i only hear the message on one device. Any suggestion? I've tested the devices separatly and then they work.

update: just played spotify to the speakergroup en changed de audio. Now it also works for the domoticz notifications.
