Hi, I have the problem, that if I turn on the Amazon Music switch to ON it will change back to OFF. also I will get the error, when I select my playlist. I have replicated this problem with the last snapshot 3.2.0, Milestone 3.2.0.M4 and Stable 3.1.0.

I have seen similar issues with TuneIn before, I believe that Amazon removes the provider specific requests from the API.

Can you try something like „play xy on Amazon Music“ by using the „textCommand“ channel?

3

I have tested it with a rule EchoWohnzimmer_MusikSprachbefehl.sendCommand(‘PLAY Hells Bells on Amazon Music’). The answer from alexa was “The playback of music from the provider amazon musik tuneIn is not supported”

4

Which channel is linked to that item?

5

amazonechocontrol:echo:XXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:playMusicVoiceCommand

6

I tried it also with textCommand Channel.

But there was no speak output

7

That’s expected. But did it play the music?

8

No, nothing. There is also nothing (no error or warning) at the log.

9

I‘ll try to check that later. But I can‘t promise it‘ll be today.

10

I have tested today this:
EchoWohnzimmer_Befehl.sendCommand(‘PLAY hells bells on Amazon Music’)

This is working. The Echo plays the music, but the Playlist will still not work.

11

I see quite some errors in my own setup during the last days. Also when using the app. It seems Amazon has some problems, too.

I‘ll check anyway.

Sounds good, that I am not the only one :wink:
