Is JRiver thinking of Using Cortana to control MC?
« on: November 16, 2016, 12:58:56 am »
Are you guys thinking of using Cortana to drive MC? E.g. Theater View, "Search Leonard Cohen", Up, Down, Left, Right, Play, Pause, Louder, Quieter, Stop..

I think voice control is important, but it's not going to happen soon.

It could be that Microsoft does most of the heavy lifting for you. They have an API that seems to somehow accept voice inputs, parse the user intention, and maps that to commands sent to the application concerned.
