Adb command to start emby firetv


chef

Recommended Posts

I've been having major issues with Alexa not starting emby on my fire TV stick, it can never find my server no matter how many times I try to set it up.

 

Now I have decided to circumvent this by adding the start up command to my emby custom skill.

 

Just want to make sure this is correct for starting the ATV app.

 

tv.emby.embyatv/.startup.StartupActivity

 

If someone could let me know, I would be greatly appreciative.

This worked:

adb shell monkey -p  tv.emby.embyatv -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER 1

Also running

 

adb shell input keyevent 26

 

Will turn your frie stick on

 

adb shell input keyevent 3

 

Will send you fire stick home

 

There is a .net adb library found in GitHub which will send the comnands, and you can host the Alexa endpoints in an Alexa emby plugin.

 

Or through a home automation gateway.

 

No need to sign into app.emby.media to open the Emby for fire TV app.

 

Much easier

adb shell monkey -p  tv.emby.embyatv -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER 1

This only worked for me sometimes (e.g., something like if I hadn't already opened it since rebooting). The snip below works fine:

am start -n tv.emby.embyatv/.startup.StartupActivity
