thank you. i'm going to dig into this soon. i'm actually doing this over ssh (and broadcasting to many remote hosts), so i have to start all .exe's with psexec. *unless there is a better way to launch an .exe on a remote host with powershell. i haven't got to that research yet. - if anyone...

LesFerch - could you give me an example of switching this cmd code to powershell? switching all my commands to powershell will be a lot of work, but it has been on my future list to look in to.

YES! that worked. thank you! i tested out using setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion at the top of the command. i hadn't found the stack overflow page yet with the cmd /E:ON /V:ON solution.

thanks i will see if that works. this was the original code: echo show-text "Brightness: ${brightness} Contrast: ${contrast} Gamma: ${gamma}" 4000 >\\.\pipe\mpvsocket =4000 is for how long to display on the OSD this code got a little changed in this forum to this: echo { "command"...

so this works to somewhat complete the task. i had to combine it with && because it was jumping past my user prompts: echo : && echo Enter Contrast/Brightness/Gamma number (-100 to 100, 0 default) && echo : && set /p "c_num=Enter CONTRAST: " && set /p "b_num=Enter BRIGHTNESS: " && set /p...

not python. but i have considered powershell. i'm just try to keep everything in cmd, because that's how i'm sending most of the other commands that i'm using.

i understand that mpv on windows is not bi directional. i have spent probably 100 hours researching how to send mpv commands to a windows host. and i have compiled 100s of commands for mpv to send and they all work. i just send the command - echo { "command": ["set_property", "contrast", -50] }...

this is my mac/linux user input command. the connection was refused because i didn't have mpv open on the mac. but it would have just moved to a new prompt. - this is what i call my "user input command that can be cut and pasted into mac: echo -e "" echo -e "Enter Contrast/Brightness/Gamma...

i will pull all that information together and get back to you

this is where it gets tripped up and why i needed eval on mac/linux. the command for sending the contrast to mpv is: echo { \"command\": [\"set_property\", \"contrast\", $c_num] } >\\.\pipe\mpvsocket but when the code gets run - (echo { "command": ["set_property", "contrast", %c_num%] } echo...

i am trying to convert this code from linux/mac to windows: echo -e "" echo -e "Enter Contrast/Brightness/Gamma number (-100 to 100, 0 default)" echo -e "CONTRAST: " read c_num echo -e "BRIGHTNESS: " read b_num echo -e "GAMMA: " read g_num cnum_command="echo { \"command\": [\"set_property\"...

okay. thank you.

but some examples like that do have their own link, like nightlight and visual effects - start ms-settings:nightlight start ms-settings:easeofaccess-visualeffects

how about this one - apps/advanced apps settings/archive apps i think it found something in the registry as AppOffloading but that didn't work as a ms-setting. i tried: :advanced-apps-archiveapps :archive-apps :advanced-archiveapps :advanced-archive-apps no luck with any of those combinations.

has anyone else had ms-settings:appsfeatures NOT bring you to the app advanced settings? it brings me to installed apps. all 3 of these brought me to the same window - installed apps: ms-settings:installed-apps ms-settings:appsfeatures-app ms-settings:appsfeatures i'm really just trying...
