Sammy 735 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 It doesn't respond to speech commands. It works exactly like Emby on Chrome on a Mobile Device, which isn't bad, although there's no Closed Captions on LiveTV. Otherwise, playback was as expected. I also learned that Amazon must have forked Chrome to create Silk because playback is reported as being via Chrome Browser in the Emby Server Dashboard.

cybergrimes 90 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) I think it's pretty great, just "Echo open Firefox" with Emby pinned to the start page so it's a single tap to load I've got it running directly to the local IP and through app.emby.media Question about how the browser is reported on Emby Dashboard-- I've been using the Firefox browser on my Echo Show (instead of the Silk browser) yet it's reported as Chrome on the dashboard. looking at the log this is the user agent I see: UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Focus/1.4 Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36 I guess it's based on Focus which uses Android WebView, anyway Mozilla confirms the "Focus/<versionnumber>" is what gives the browser away here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/User-Agent/Firefox I don't know if it's worth accounting for in an update, just thought I would point it out Edited November 20, 2019 by cybergrimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef 3745 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) I have created an APL interface for emby if it matters. It was kinda hard, but I'll post an couple pictures here in a moment. APL is pretty much just css variables in json format. I have it working I my new echo show Ask for it and then the details show up on the show, but emby for fire TV will browser to the item.

chef 3745 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Yes. I'll post the endpoint class for emby, and also grab some pics of the options you want to turn on in your custom skill. Edited November 20, 2019 by chef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
