I tried Speech API example for Windows Phone 8. in my call phone 2 languages install en-GB and en-IN and my phone default language is en-in, when i tried with en-gb, it is working fine but when i tried with phone default language which is en-in, it is not working
it gives error , it throws exception.
On this code:
Perform speech recognition.
this.recoOperation = recognizer.RecognizeAsync();
var recoResult = await this.recoOperation;
It throws Exception:
**SPERR_WINRT_UNSUPPORTED_LANG 0x800455BC The requested language is not supported.**
So, It is means what Indian English is not supported with Speech Recognitiona API or I should change some additional settings to make it work?
Thanks.
As the documentation on Dev Center, this error code means “The requested language is not supported.” And this will happen on a new phone (or sometimes after you reset the phone) when the speech is activated, a language is chosen, but the language pack is not actually downloaded and installed on the phone. The user will have to go to phone settings to choose another speech language and then switch back again to see the message prompt for installing the language pack.
Bing speech require english(us) language(or other supported language) to be enabled in your phone's language settings. After that you get a prompt to restart, which will make it work

I'm curious if it's possible for me to write programs that can control an Apple TV, specifically an Apple TV 4th gen running tvOS 9.1.1, like Apple's Remote app for iOS can. I'd like to send it commands for navigating in the four cardinal directions, selecting an item on the screen, going up the navigation stack -- essentially what Apple's Remote app can do.
Has anyone done any work reverse engineering the protocol it uses? Cursory Googling only has so far yielded out of date results about earlier generation Apple TVs and the DAAP protocol which looks like something different than what I want.
I captured the traffic on my iPhone using tcpdump and analyzed it with WireShark. The Remote app asks the Apple TV with normal HTTP requests on port 3689.
The workflow of the app consists in four HTTP requests:
/server-info for getting infos about the Apple TV. It responds with a Apple proprietary DAAP response (Digital Audio Access Protocol) providing some tags about the device, like the display name.
/login is performed during connection, when the app displays the "Connecting to Apple TV..." message. It responds with a DAAP about the login status.
Here's the bottleneck. /home-share-verify validates the connection between the app and the Apple TV. This call needs a Client-DAAP-Validation header with a long unknown string value. According to Wikipedia, this seems to be like an hash generated by a certificate exchange between verified sources that was introduced in iTunes 7.0+ and never reverse engineered.
/ctrl-int/1/{controlpromptupdate|controlpromptentry|playstatusupdate} seems to be the calls made for the input buttons.
Some other minor calls are fired in between (like a Bonjour service update or a /databases call).
Here and here you can find more infos. Hope this helps for getting an overview of how this simple (but protected) app works.
i wanted to tell alexa to trigger appletv and that would wake my appletv up and via HDMI & CEC turn my tv on,
in order to do that:
from your mac\linux\windows simply run:
curl -XPOST -d 'cmcc\x00\x00\x00\x01\x30cmbe\x00\x00\x00\x04menu' 'http://10.1.1.56:3689/ctrl-int/1/controlpromptentry?prompt-id=144&session-id=1'
the abstract command is:
curl -XPOST -d 'cmcc\x00\x00\x00\x01\x30cmbe\x00\x00\x00\x04menu' 'http://{APPLETV_IP}:3689/ctrl-int/1/controlpromptentry?prompt-id={CONTROL_PAIR_ID}&session-id={CONTROL_SESSION_ID}'
i extracted the CONTROL_PAIR_ID and CONTROL_SESSION_ID by setting my iphone wifi http proxy settings to my mac with fiddler on it and activated the old appletv remote app and that displayed the requests the app is executing
if you don't know how to set iphone to work with fiddler you can find it here:

I did manage to control my Apple TV (currently running tvOS 9.2) from a python script. It turns out that you don't need to use Home Sharing to have a remote app control the Apple TV. I don't know if the following method will work if Home Sharing is enabled, but with it disabled on the Apple TV, the iOS Remote app has the option to manually add a device. (This may require removing all of the devices it is already paired with, since that was unfortunately necessary for me to get it to display the 'Add a device' button.) Once I had paired my iPhone to the Apple TV, I recorded some of its requests, copied the pairing GUID, and then constructed some of my own requests.
The only three requests necessary to make are:
/login?pairing-guid=< your pairing guid here >&hasFP=1
Logs into the Apple TV. The last four bytes of the response's is a session id, encoded as a big-endian four byte integer.
/logout?session-id=< your session id here >
Logs out. Not strictly necessary, as I found that logging in simply gets you a new session id, but probably not a bad idea to do things the way it expects.
/ctrl-int/1/controlpromptentry?prompt-id=114&session-id=< your session id here >
Send user input to the Apple TV. The data is one of several buffers that input a command, or possible a moving touch. For movement in the cardinal directions, sending several of these requests to simulate a moving touch is necessary.
I have a python script demonstrating how to do this here:
http://pastebin.com/mDHc353A
Utilizes the requests library: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/
Also special thanks to Adam Miskiewicz / github user skevy, since I made use of this file in his atlas-backend repo that conveniently had the right buffers to send for movement: https://github.com/skevy/atlas-backend/blob/master/atlas/services/appletv.coffee
For any people still checking out this question, I recommend checking out pyatv if they want to control their Apple TV through a python or command line interface.
My Lumia 820 is running Windows Phone 8.0. My Lumia 520 is running Windows Phone 8.1 developer preview. Speech reco works fine on the Lumia 520, but with the 820 I get a System.Exception with an HRESULT code of 0x800455BC. I did some research and that error is supposed to be localization related. It happens when the language your phone is set to is not supported by the speech recognizer:
Exception HRESULT: 0x800455BC in speech recongnition in Windows phone 8
Except I am not getting the same call stack as what that page shows. Also, the solution offered on that page says I should set my recognizer to the desired language explicitly. But that's a problem since I get the error when I create the recognizer. Since I can't create it, I can't set the language. Other people get the error when they try to do a speech recognition session.
Note, I definitely have enabled speech recognition via the phone settings, even allowing it when the phone is locked. Have any of you seen this and know what to do about it? I get the error right when I try to construct the SpeechRecognizer object:
// Create the recognition engine.
this.SpeechRecognizerObj = new SpeechRecognizer();
One Quick Question:
I want to navigate to settings(cellular..) from an secondary livetitle.
The Problem is the targetUrl for the Shelltitle(selectedShortcutsMenuControl.TargetUrl) in my app looks like this: "cellular",
and thats not an valid Uri format.
Exception : "An exception of type 'System.UriFormatException' occurred
in System.ni.dll but was not handled in user code"
StandardTileData data = new StandardTileData();
data.Title = selectedShortcutsMenuControl.Title;
data.BackgroundImage = myUri;
ShellTile.Create(new Uri(selectedShortcutsMenuControl.TargetUrl,UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute), data);
Is there a way to fix this or is there a way, to directly navigate to cellular Settings form the livetitle?
<ctl:MenuData x:Key="ShortcutsMenuControlData">
<ctl:MenuItemData Title="Cellular" TargetUrl="wifi" Image="/Images/Item-fc0d2405-5b0f-4f3d-ba3e-5b93fbfe2c44.png"/>
<ctl:MenuItemData Title="WiFi" TargetUrl="cellular" Image="/Images/Item-c9f6c2c7-44e1-4079-ad90-e31b8a59333e.png"/>
<ctl:MenuItemData Title="Airplain Mode" TargetUrl="plaine" Image="/Images/Item-10845593-26f7-485a-bef7-cf9b9b0cf9fe.png"/>
<ctl:MenuItemData Title="Bluetooth" TargetUrl="bluetooth" Image="/Images/Item-294e2b67-5534-43b3-ae4e-aecf180c9274.png"/>
</ctl:MenuData>
So inorder to navigate to the native phone settings you need to use the built in URI schemes.
They can be found on MSDN here
Specifically for the ones you are asking for the codes are
ms-settings-airplanemode: Launches the Airplane Mode Settings app.
ms-settings-cellular: Launches the Cellular Settings app.
ms-settings-bluetooth: Launches the Bluetooth Settings app.
ms-settings-wifi: Launches the Wi-Fi Settings app.
replace your target url's with these and it should work
We want to replace a custom NPAPI interface between a browser based web application and an client side daemon process.
Is there a similar technology to Chrome's Native Client Messaging in Firefox?
js-ctypes[1] is probably the closest alternative for Mozilla.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/js-ctypes
I have a C++ module that I compile as a binary executable for native-messaging or as a library for js-ctypes. The difference between the two is primarily that native-messaging calls a binary executable and performs stdin/stdout data exchange, and js-ctypes opens a static/shared library (via dlopen) and calls exposed methods of your library which can return compatible data types[2] and optionally call a passed JavaScript callback method.
[1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/js-ctypes
[2] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/js-ctypes/js-ctypes_reference/ctypes#Predefined_data_types
With new support for Mozilla 'Chrome' WebExtensions API seems like soon there will be a very similar technology to Chrome's Native Client Messaging.
At this time it's still on the 'List of APIs [mozilla] will likely support in the future'
How to produce a complete WP8 screenshot? By “complete” I mean “including application bar, status bar, message boxes and keyboard”.
Things I’ve tried:
GDI API that worked in WP7 (GetDC, CreateCompatibleDC, BitBlt), result - CreateCompatibleDC or CreateDCW return NULL, GetLastError says “the specified procedure could not be found”. Moreover, it seems WP8 only has the single HDC, namely 0x00dc00dc, so no off-screen GDI DCs are possible.
InvokeScreenCapture and SaveApplicationScreenShot from ShellChrome.dll – application deactivates, nothing else happens.
D3D11Device1::GetImmediateContext, ID3D11RenderTargetView::OMGetRenderTargets – OMGetRenderTargets returns NULL.
Any other ideas?
I don’t need to pass marketplace certification, so unsupported/undocumented APIs are OK.
In WP8 and under there is no way to capture the entire screen without running in TCB (requires a hacked image) and loading in libs that don't ship with any SDK.
