It's a shame that even after two years the German language is still not implemented.

Hi, did you try clicking add server and entering your server information manually? Are you trying to connect to your own server or someone else's?

The tv surrounding episode screenshots for shows looks terrible. Is there a setting specifically for this or can you add one. It makes every theme look horrible.

That's the cover art plugin, so check in it's settings.

This update partially broke the skill for me.

If I start with "Alexa, ask M... B home to play music", she says, "Sorry, I don't have an answer for that." But if I start with "Alexa, open M... B home", then follow up with "Play music", she does play music from my library.

Once Emby is opened, the full command "Alexa, ask M... B home to play music" does work.

But if I say "Next" or "Skip" once she is playing a song, she says "I encountered a glitch. Can you say that again?" When I repeat it, she says "No media found", seemingly implying that only the current song is on the queue. But another song does start after the current one finishes.

If I say "Stop", she says "I encountered a glitch. Can you say that again?" When I repeat it, she does stop.

So there is no way I can find to skip to the next song.

HI, we are looking into it, thanks.

Any updates on this problem?

HI, an update went out. Can you please try again? If there's still an issue then please open a topic in the community as this is the release announcement and not the best place to troubleshoot. Thanks !

Yes, the skill is responding properly to the Next (Skip) and Stop commands now. Thanks!

Would it be possible to add a profile pin for users? Similar to web interface?

Ideally this would use the FireTV native pin pad and not the d-pad
