I'm experimenting with Alexa.Presentation.APL to show artwork and Alexa.Presentation.HTML to show web-content within the MediaServer skill on Echo devices with screens. It all looks really nice on the Echo Show 2nd Gen which has a 10" 1280x800 touchscreen. You can get an idea of what it looks like in the following video, where the "What's New" command is hijacked to launch Material.
https://youtu.be/QpzHbkgN1f0 Where it would come into its own is if the voice command could deep-link into one of Material's sub-pages. For example, "Alexa, open Material Favorites" or "Alexa, open Material Random Albums", "Alexa, open Material New Music" to immediately open it at those options. It would also be nice to open it to show the tracks on an album if I pass in the album_id, etc, etc. You get the idea - pre-configured Material. Something like GET query parameters or POST body parameters could pass in the configuration request. Is anything like that possible? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ philchillbill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68920 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
