In order to select media items by voice, they must appear in the Amulet media index. If an item appears on the Amulet user interface pages, then it is in the index and you can select it by name.
Amulet performs an initial scan of your media files during installation. Thereafter, it re‐indexes your media every night at 5 am.
Newly recorded TV shows are indexed automatically a few seconds after the recording finishes, so that you always have instant voice access to your latest TV programs.
When you import new music, photos or videos, into Media Center, you can ask Amulet to re‐index those files immediately using one of these voice commands:
- RE‐INDEX MUSIC
- RE‐INDEX PHOTOS
- RE‐INDEX VIDEOS
- RE‐INDEX TV PROGRAMS
- RE‐INDEX CHANNEL NAMES (used when you edit your TV channel lineup)
Indexing takes place in the background, so you can continue to use Amulet as usual while the index is rebuilt. Amulet will tell you when indexing is complete, and you can then access your newly added media items by voice.
For more information on these, and other command variants, see the Amulet Speech Commands section. |

General
|
|
Amulet organizes your television programs into two categories:
- Recorded TV includes any program that has been recorded directly on your Media Center.
- TV Shows are programs containing multiple episodes. These include many recorded programs and also video files you may have downloaded from the Internet.
TV show episodes have both an episode name and a series name. You can select episodes directly using the episode name, or use the series name to show a list of all episodes in the series. |

Settings

These settings control how Amulet responds to you with spoken replies.
Voice Style
Selects which of your installed synthetic voices Amulet should use to talk to you. The standard Amulet voice is called Paul, but if you have a third‐party voice, you can select it here.
Default: Paul
Extra Vocalisation
When enabled, Amulet reads out additional information about program entries when you browse the Amulet movie, TV and video pages.
Default: Off
Stay Quiet From … Until
Tells Amulet the hours to avoid disturbing you with information messages. For example, if Media Center restarts during the night, Amulet avoids speaking its usual Welcome message so that you are not woken up if your sound system is still turned on.
Default: From 2 am to 6 am |

Troubleshooting
|
|
Move the remote close to the USB dongle. Check that a solid or flashing blue LED can be seen on the dongle. If not, plug the dongle into a different USB port. If the dongle light remains flashing blue when the remote's logo is flashing red, try recharging your remote. If the problem persists, check out the PAIRING section of the User Guide. |
