I am trying to include Hindi language support on a Google Assistant action developed using the flash card template.
In line with the reference documentation, I have checked the Hindi language in the "Choose language(s) for your Actions" on the Action console.
I have also uploaded the content in a separate Google Sheet which is copied from the Flash Card template available. No changes made on it except for the content changes and the sheet name and Configuration Parameters sheet.
So far so good, but when I try to test it in the Simulator, the questions are not read out aloud. The answers are matched, hints and follow-ups are also read correctly, but it is only the question which is not read out aloud in the simulator. Hindi language Test is enabled on the Simulator.
I have tried re-adding the language and verified the format in the sheet. Other languages (English) works just fine.
I have also format-painted the question column with the format of other cells/columns which are correctly read on Simulator.
Here is the generated response JSON -
{
"simpleResponse": {
"ssml": "<speak>वाह! आप प्रोग्रामिंग लॅंग्वेज ट्रिविया में वापस लौट आए। आइए देखते हैं कि हम पिछली बातें फिर से याद कर पाते हैं या नहीं। <break time='750ms'/> यह रहा आपका पहला सवाल।</speak>"
}
}
and here is the Audio tab output -
<speak>
वाह! आप App में वापस लौट आए। आइए देखते हैं कि हम पिछली बातें फिर से याद कर पाते हैं या नहीं। <break time='750ms'/> यह रहा आपका पहला सवाल।
</speak>
I expect the questions to also be read out correctly, but the actual result is silence on the Simulator. The content is well-enclosed in the request JSON, but not getting read out aloud.

I am developing an ePub. In the content.opf file I have to specify a series of metadata by using DC standard. For example dc:title and dc:creator.
However my book is a multilanguage book, that is, it contains two translations of the same text: English and Russian. The standard reference manual states that I can have more dc:language statements. For example:
<dc:language>en</dc:language>
<dc:language>ru</dc:language>
but it does not say how to specify the other metadata for more than one language. Consider, for example, dc:creator. I tried
<dc:creator xml:lang="en">Dario de Judicibus</dc:creator>
<dc:creator xml:lang="ru">Дарио де Юдицибус</dc:creator>
I get an error from the distribution platform validator, which states that the format of ePub is not correct. It looks like I cannot use xml:lang in dc:creator even if, in theory, that is an XML attribute that can be used with any XML tag. Same for dc:title:
<dc:title xml:lang="en">My Book Title</dc:title>
<dc:title xml:lang="ru">Название Mоей Kниги</dc:title>
Could someone who has had to face the same problem as me, namely writing the OPF for an ePub that contains a text in multiple languages, tell me what is the correct way to do it? In the standards for the OPF 3.x I have not been able to find any useful information to establish this.
SOLVED
I verified my code with one of the author of the W3C specifications for OPF and he told me that what I wrote is correct, but that some validator is not used to multi-language documents, so that the problem is the validator, not the code. I write this in case someone else may have the same problem.
I need to add printing functionality on a zebra zq520 bluetooth thermal printer.
I manage to do so using the flutter_blue plugin but I am not happy with the implementation.
I hate to break the string to smaller chunks in order to pass through bluetooth (and wait!!!!!).
I was wondering if there is a better approach, like the one we used in the (good?) old days of java for android using the android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter class
Thanks.
I ended up creating my own plugin.
source code
EDIT: 2021/11/29 integrate some comments from comments section
This code is not limited to zpl. In theory it can support every printer language that sends clear text to bluetooth serial
It is only for Android
For this source code to works as is:
You have to pair a bluetooth printer with name that starts with "zebra"
You have to send the zpl commands as string.
The easiest way to check that your zpl command is valid, is by using the ultra useful labelary viewer. The easiest way to test a label layout (font size, images, barcodes etc) is by using the above free service. in fact all you have to do, is to create the layout you need in labelary and the just copy the entire string from first ^XA to last ^XZ to FlutterCblue.printToBT. For example if you send this
printToBT("^XA
^FX Top section with logo, name and address.

You will get this:
One more thing: keep in mind that if you want to print special language characters (I need to print Greek) you have to find the correct font that is installed in your printer. For example: In order to print Greek characters I have to integrate this
^CWN,E:TT0003M_.FNT
just after the first ^XA. Then I use the N font in order to print Greek. It is very flexible if you understand the basics
Hope it helps
I have a DialogFlow agent I am trying to test on Google Assistant. I've created a relatively simple Intent called "Set name" with the following Training phrases:
My name is Ryan.
Bill
I'm Steve
The name's Bond. James Bond.
It has two parameters:
Required: given-name with the Entity #sys.given-name and the value stored as $given-name
last-name with the Entity #sys.last-name and the value $last-name
I'm able to test in just fine in the DialogFlow test console. But when I try to "See how it works in Google Assistant." I get the following error:
Request contains an invalid argument. The query pattern 'The name's
Bond. $SchemaOrg_Person:given-name $SchemaOrg_Person:last-name.'
contains an undefined parameter 'last-name.'
If I delete the "James Bond" training phrase, it works okay. But I would like to include that. What am I doing wrong?
Here is a screenshot of the intent that is causing the problem:
Here is the link I'm clicking to try in Google Assistant:
And finally, here is the error message that appears in the bottom-right corner of the screen when I click that link:
I suddenly got a few of these error messages when both clicking the "See how it works in Google Assistant" link and submitting the app for production.
It seems like characters like apostrophes and hyphens in the training phrases creates trouble and can give that error message.
In addition it complained about a variant of the training phrases that I could not find anywhere no matter how much I looked at all languages, all pages of the phrases and all intents. I finally found the phrase in question by exporting the project and searching through the JSON files. Then I could delete the phrase locally, delete the intent in Dialogflow and do an import back to Dialogflow. (From my understanding it had messed up a follow-up intent which it also in the JSON (nowhere in the UI) had attached parts of some training phrases.)
Try to remove the dot from the sentence. So it will be:
"The name's Bond. James Bond"
I ran into same error and finally it was found to be an issue with the additional language I have added.
There was default "en" language and "en-IN" added by me. The issue was with training phrases in "en-IN" language. I didn't need it so removed it and it worked fine.
So, do check how many languages are enabled in your agent and whether training phrases are set properly for them or not.
I have a filepicker.io instance where I am using the pickAndStore function to allow users to upload various files, however while testing Microsoft Visio I found the files are being blocked / denied upload by a yellow error that states it does not register as an accepted file type (and lists out all the files it believes are allowed)?
In my logs of the arguments sent to the function, I can see the full array of file types I allow and the 4 variants of visio I added are clearly there:
The four I added:
".vss", ".vssx", ".vsd", ".vsdx"
Full array:
[".doc", ".dot", ".docx", ".docm", ".dotx", ".xls", ".xlt", ".xlsx", ".xltx", ".xlsm", ".xlsb", ".oft", ".msg", ".ppt", ".pptx", ".pptm", ".pps", ".ppsx", ".mpp", ".pub", ".pdf", ".html", ".mhtml", ".txt", ".rtf", ".csv", ".xml", ".css", ".zip", ".tar", ".rar", ".vss", ".vssx", ".vsd", ".vsdx", ".mp3", ".wav", ".swf", ".ics", ".srt", ".wmf", ".eps", ".ai", ".psd", ".gif", ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".png", ".bmp", ".m4v", ".mp4", ".flv", ".f4v", ".mov", ".wmv", ".wm", ".webm", ".3gp", ".3gpp", ".m2p", ".rv", ".rm", ".avi", ".3gp2", ".mpg", ".mpeg", ".ts", ".vp6", ".h264", ".arf", ".wrf", ".m2ts"]
However When I use "My Computer" as a source and upload any one of the twenty odd .vsd files I have to use as tests, all of them trigger the error to appear and deny upload:
The image i am seeing saying that .vsd does not register
I'm not sure what else I can do at this point to fix? I don't particularly want to have to use mimetype in this one instance as it suggests not to use this along side extension in the filepicker documentation.
Here is the link i used that provides various Visio files you can use to test. I would rather not use the files clients upload using our platform as I would need to ask permission and in case they are sensitive. I don't think there has been a single successful upload (of a visio file, others are fine) so I would be surprised if it was file specific.

Thanks!
All extensions are converted back to mimetype therefor you can't mixed extension & mimetype.
It appears that ".vss", ".vssx", ".vsd", ".vsdx" are in the database.
Could you post some of the files you are testing so we can check them ourselves.
Regards,
Dylan
Filepicker needs to include "application/vnd.ms-visio.viewer" in the mapping from those file extensions. It looks like that's what the browser is reporting the MIME type for those files to be.
I would like scrape information for recordings from onlinetvrecorder (otr) in Kodi. Unfortunately the scrapers available can't handle the file format which is like
Django_Unchained_15.07.03_22-45_sf2_165_TVOON_DE.mpg.mp4.avi
Renaming is not an option, since the filename is a key for otr. I know there is a scraper called xbmc-otr, but it never left beta status and seems to be outdated.
Any suggestions, on how to correctly display those files in Kodi?
Has anybody written or started a scraper for otr?
After some research I found a solution to the problem. Put the following in %appdata%\Kodi\userdata\advancedsettings.xml (advancedsettings.xml does not exist in advance, you have to create it)
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<cleanstrings action="prepend">
<regexp>_\d\d\.[0-1]\d\.[0-3]\d_[0-2]\d-[0-5]\d_</regexp>
</cleanstrings>
</video>
</advancedsettings>
The regexp <regexp>_\d\d\.[0-1]\d\.[0-3]\d_[0-2]\d-[0-5]\d_</regexp> matches the timestamp in the otr filename, so that everything right of the match (at the end of the file name) is removed. See the official Kodi documentation for further reference. The remaining file name can be handled by the scrapers shipped with Kodi.
Despite of the relatively coarse regexp I added, all my otr movies were recognized correctly.
The solution is tested with Kodi 15.2 (Isengard), but should work with all versions that support the cleanstrings option.
EDIT:
A similar soltuion works for TV Shows. The only requirement is that the file name contains season and episode information like S01E02 for example.
<tvshowmatching action="prepend">
<regexp>_[Ss]([0-9]+)[Ee]([0-9]+)([^\\/_]*)</regexp>
</tvshowmatching>
