Only some commands working in Alexa

[crawfofd 0]

I am not getting all the commands to work with Alexa.  I can set the default client and play movies and tvshows. Can not do any navigation.

Can someone point me in the right direction??

 

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Sure, When I tell Alexa to move in any direction it replies 'ok' but does nothing. I can display the libraries but can not navigate to them.

I can play specific movies and tv series by name.  Just no navigation.

what client are you using? Theater?

Your navigation request were correctly detected/processed by Alexa. @@Luke can you confirm Emby Theater supports navigation requests at this time?

You mean like display item? That is supported, yes.

Sorry, I mean like navigation: up down, left, right, page up, page down.

[Luke 42077]

yes they are, except page up/page down

Strange, I checked the skill logs and she did the right actions for this user. The request was sent and no errors returned. I don't personally use theater, but direction navigation works fine in Kodi. So something must be wrong. Unfortunately, the remote control in the webclient doesn't have navigation anymore, so there's no way to test this by bypassing Alexa.

I just created a test harness and it's actually working fine for me. Remember though the commands are MoveXXX, so MoveRight, not just Right.
