Completed Alexa - Default Player

[ginjaninja 571]

Is it possible to unset the default player..

I would like to set behaviour on "Echo Mancave" such when i dont specify a player, the playback is on "Echo Mancave"

I dont want to "set the default player to  Echo Mancave", because then when my wife asks Emby to play something on "Echo Kitchen" it will play on "Echo Mancave". Is it possible to unset the default player paradigm entirely so that commands issued to a device playback to the commanded device (without having to add 'on device suffix' to every command.)

 

I suggest that default player behaviour is granular to each Alexa device...

reason being that if i want to use an Alexa to control the projector room, i might well set the default player for "Alexa ProjectorRoom" to the HTPC responsible for playback in  the projector room.

But its unlikely that i want Alexa Kitchen's default player to be the HTPC in the projector room.

thanks for considering.

Each device should now have its own default player
