PrincessClevage 173 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Below is a link to a local installable media service that can give the ability to use Alexa. Voice to control your media and also stream to Alexa devices (similar to dlna). It would be great if Emby could add and app to inter grate with this service or offer similar functionality https://www.mymediaalexa.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

synologyluap 1 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Hi @Luke, hope you are doing well. Was just wondering, are you aware if this feature "direct playback on Alexa" is in your roadmap by any chance and if you can give me an update on that? Thanks!

Luke 37118 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Two new projects have been added in OneSky under Emby Server: EmbyHome EmbyHome-Alexa These string sets are used for both Google Home and Alexa. If you can help translate those then we can support more languages on those platforms. Thanks everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
