It would be too difficult to clean up the title as it come from IFTTT. So, I search omdbapi.com first to get a title that I can use to search Kodi.
Example: I say "Monster's Inc." What IFTTT sends to the shield is "monsters inc." If I search Kodi for "monsters inc," the movie won't be found, but if I send it to omdbapi.com, it will return with "Monster's Inc." When I search Kodi for "Monster's Inc." It will find the movie and return the ID of the movie which I will then request Kodi to play.

Yes I understood that but was wondering how to set it up. You now completed your guide so i guess it's covered under the tasker files. One more thing, can i do this with Kodi on a raspberry pi or Mac too?

Inside IFTTT, when you click add ingredient, you will be present with two things to choose, "CreatedAt" or "TextField". You choose TextField. This will be whatever you say to Google Home. Example, if you say "play iron man", the term "iron man" is the text field and will be the phrase IFTTT sends to the shield. I hope this is clearer.

Yes, tasker has that feature, but the device needs to be rooted. Have you tried this out yet? I have a lot of people downloading this but few comments.
