Hi - longtime Squeezebox user here. I recently built an RPi 3 piCorePlayer with an Allo Boss DAC and RPi "official" display. Also running LMS on this setup, having migrated LMS and music library off of my Ubuntu server box. Would love to have Alexa control over this setup. I have some linux skills and development experience.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: Alexa voice control (development thread)
I've had Squeezeboxen pretty much since Slimdevices started. Bought my first one directly from them and drove to their HQ to pick it up since they were just down the road from me in Sunnyvale, :) Since then I've added two more (Radio and a V3) and am using my new Clazio speaker as a player. I much prefer to use my Echo and my Google Home to control my devices and I'd love to be able to do the same with my SB players. short_y's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8753 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106569 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

There's a project portal that I invite people to (teamwork.com) and all the documentation is there along with a message board, ToDo lists etc. When I move to Beta, I'll be removing the requirement to sign up for an Amazon Developer account and leveraging the new(ish) Amazon Beta infrastructure. As part of that process, I'll need to write the release documentation and this will be part of the beta test as well. Do bear with me. We have one remaining major piece of functionality to build and test as part of Alpha and then we'll be v1.0 feature complete and ready to move to beta. Things have slowed down for me recently simply de to a lack of spare time but I'm hoping to blitz this the week after next so stay tuned! If you haven't already, PM me an e-mail address and I'll get in touch (and post on this thread) when I'm ready for Beta testers.

Hi, will add SqueezeMe, though Squeezebox might not work as Amazon guidelines indicate that you canot re-use the invocation name in slots. For alpha testing, you need a developer account. Once we get to beta testing, this will change as we'll use the skill egta test environment.

Well, the focus is on getting Hab-Tunes for Alexa v1 out but once that's done, it should be -relatively- straightforward to tweak it to work with Google Home.

New release today with the changes listed below. For those recently volunteered to test, assuming this turns out to be stable enough, I'll be sending out your invites soon, probably tomorrow. Version 0.2.0.3 (19th May 2017) [*=left]Fixed an issue with selected device not saving correctly (skill) [*=left]Expanded status intent to include a lot more permutations (skill) [*=left]Expanded player name list (skill) [*=left]Added option to contribute player names to project (plugin / skill / db) [*=left]Changed use MQTT param initialisation to default to On, making it the default mode (plugin) [*=left]Set currently nominated player as selected if nothing currently selected (plugin) [*=left]Caught cases where squeezebox is muted and reported accordingly in list and status commands (skill) [*=left]Added rudimentary volume reduction when in extended listening mode (skill/plugin) [*=left]Fixed a bug preventing DE users selecting devices by number (skill) [*=left]Updated alexa-verifier from v0.2.0 to v0.3.6 to benefit from utf improvements (skill) [*=left]Fixed a bug with umlauts in device names causing verification errors (skill) [*=left]Tweaked response and re-prompt language (skill) [*=left]Added missing responses to translations file (skill) [*=left]Bumped the version (plugin) Known issues: [*=left]_All__playback devices will be volume reduced to 10% during extended listening. It's a blunt instrument to test the overall efficacy of this solution to see if we can minimise false commands resulting from Alexa responding to song lyrics. [*=left]In extended listening mode, volume change commands may not work as anticipated due to volume levelling [*=left]List and Status responses may not return the correct player volume settings in extended listening mode. [*=left]Users should respond to Alexa prompts with known commands only. Polite 'yes' and 'no' are not yet supported. [*=left]If the server is inaccessible, the plugin log file fills quickly.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: Alexa voice control (development thread)
For all the thread watchers, we moved to Alpha last week and quickly went through 5x point versions as new testers came on board and found various issues on various LMS versions. The more testing we do, the more inclined I am to support newer LMS versions only but final decision on that remains open. Right now, I'm working towards Alpha version 0.2 which will consolidate all the fixes from the first Alpha cycle and start introducing new functions and commands. (a new detailed status command is already done as is the ability to power on and power off devices). There are a couple of outlying issues to be addressed and one emerging issue is some confusion on Alexa's behalf as the command set grows - she gets mixed up quite easily so I'll need to carefully revisit the speech commands to minimise possible false interactions.

Thank you ! Hi Muntos It should work for you. Provided that the Squeezelite shows up in the LMS as a player, you'll be able to control it with the Alexa skill. I use softsqueeze in testing along with a range of hardware devices and it works perfectly. If you want to sign up for Alpha testing, set up an Amazon developer account and PM me the email address you used. It is still somewhat technical and there's always the risk of ruining your LMS set up so I understand why people might not want to get involved just yet but if you have a backup and are comfortable configuring your LMS, you should be fine.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: Alexa voice control (development thread)
This weekend I hope to get v0.1.6 released to testers. This is a significant step up as it now includes both an http proxy and MQTT as options for communications between the skill and the LMS plugin. I've alos set up a Repo for the plugin meaning installation and updating is less command line and more GUI. With this in place, the plugin is more or less feature complete and future work will be focused on bug fixes and optimisations. That being the case, I'm pleased to announce that this release marks the commencement of the Alpha test phase of the project. Still a long way to go and still the potential to completely bork your LMS but a milestone nevertheless. On the skill side, I've added support for volume control to the existing play/pause commands. The focus on the Alpha phase will be the expansion of the command set to cover a well-rounded sub-set of LMS / Device functionality. (@nickb has kindly agreed to the proposal that this skill and his excellent' DIY Secure Integration ' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107009-Announce-squeeze-alexa-DIY-secure-Alexa-integration&highlight=alexa)would benefit from sharing a common core command set thus allowing user try out both and feel familiar in each.) Thus that set of commands (with some extensions) will be the focus of development over the next few releases. Once they are implemented, we'll move on to Beta. With this release, I'm also widening the tester base. There have been several expressions of interest and offers of help over the past few weeks and I'll be contacting those users this weekend and inviting them in to the test portal. (If you don't get an invite by Sunday and think you should have, I've missed you somehow so please just PM me again with the email you used to sign up to the Amazon Alexa Developer portal.)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: Alexa voice control (development thread)
An update for thread followers v0.1.5 was made available to testers today. The change list is pasted below but the main focus of this release is the addition of MQTT communications between the skill and plugin. This should allow the reliance on open ports to be removed from the plugin. Developer testing has been promising and, assuming the wider test goes well, I would hope to expand the available functionality in the next version, label it Alpha and open the test process to some new users who have expressed interest here. The full v0.1.5 change list; - Added 'Use MQTT' selector to settings page (plugin) - Implemented MQTT for command initialisation between skill and plugin (skill/plugin) - Misc. DB updates to accommodate MQTT (db) - Adjusted dynamicIP check interval (plugin) - Removed reporting user password in clear in debug (plugin) - Improved internal error logging & reporting (skill) - Added support for STOP and PLAY commands (skill) - Improved response time of play/pause/resume/stop intents (skill) - Caused PAUSE and RESUME commands to behave correctly (skill) - Tweak to list devices phrasing (skill) - Misc. updates to message translations (skill) - Misc. updates to status messages (plugin) - Confirmed functionality in OSX (LMS 7.9) - Bumped the version (plugin) ALEXA LMS SKILL: http://www.hab-tunes.com | Twitter: '#habtunes' (https://twitter.com/search?q=%23habtunes&src=typd&lang=en) Personal HA BLOG: http://mediaserver8.blogspot.com Squeezebox | Squeezebox Radio x 2 | Squeezebox Duet meep's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12744 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106569 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Typically, these skills support commands like play (track) by (artist) from (album), or some variation thereof. If your artist and track names are standard, you might get away with just those parameters but if you have multiple shows by the same artist, chances are that there would be a number of identical search results, in which case, the skill should list the available albums. Those album names would be tricky to follow when rendered by Alexa and , I guess, tricky to say. i suggest you try out the skill when it's closer to being ready and see how it works for you. Then we can think about some solutions.

I haven't been so good at updating here but rest assured, work is progressing. I tend to post updates on the project website rather than here so be sure to check out has-tunes.commas well.mtwompages to refresh! there's been a lot more work than I anticipated in getting the basics of this skill in place and as my development time is limited to free time, progress can sometimes feel glacial. However, the beginning is almost done and I can see into the part where I add the actual commands to allow people use this thing. ive also set myself a deadline of getting the skill published to meet the entry criteria for the current skill competition so it's skates on!

Are you still closed beta? Hi Girth To call the current stage beta is a tad optimistic, though excellent progress is being made. Currently, there are around 30 testers signed up through this thread and who've received invites to a teamwork project portal. That's where the plugin file is distributed and feedback discussions take place.I've stopped inviting new testers for the moment as this group now has a good feel for how to set up and run the test code and report issues etc. If I start giving more people access now, I'll spend a good deal of my time dealing with set-up and other teething issues rather than concentrating on coding. However, soon enough I will need a new cohort of testers to take a fresh look when I have the base infrastructure up and running. Below I've posted the current skeleton development release plan. I would expect to be inviting more users in at version 0.2. If you'd like access at that stage and have some time to help test, please send me a PM with the email address you use for your Amazon account and I'll invite you when we get there. v0.1.3 (completed) [*=left]Refactoring skill<->plugin comms to utilise asynchttp and https [*=left]Fix apostrophe bug [*=left]Determination of users LMS port v0.1.4 (in test) [*=left]add enhanced security (data encryption, message authentication) [*=left]add dev. branch skill to negate need to take skill offline v0.1.5 (in dev.)

A quick update for thread watchers... I'v made a lot of progress on version 0.1.4 but am now stalled in implementing account linking between the skill and user accounts. I've posted details of the issue on amazon forums but have had next to zero support there; https://forums.developer.amazon.com/questions/56675/account-linking-implicit-grant-failing-with-unable.html I've also submitted a ticket but no response. Until I get this resolved, I'm a bit stuck as I have a number of code areas that need to be updated once this is working. There may be something VERY obvious I'm missing. If there's someone on here with experience in skill dev. and account linking or even oAuth, I'd be happy to provide access to my code for some fresh eyes.

I haven't been responding as its been busy with work etc. we actually have about 30 people signed up as testers at the Moment, with maybe half of those active. I'm in the middle of a fairly significant update that really locks down security and hopefully gets around the requirement to open a port etc. Once I have the base platform working well, I'll be adding in extra commands. what I'd like to do is stick with the current testers for the next couple of versions. They know how to set up these early code versions and know what to look for and how to fix shortcomings. if I introduce more new people now, a lot of my time will be spent handholding through set up etc. Rather than focus on development. However, it will be critical to have some new people come on board in a few weeks as I'll need fresh eyes as the project nears completion and I'll need people to spot issues that the rest of us have just gotten used to. Makes sense? alexa supports us English, U.K. English and German. I have set up the skill for all 3 languages and one of the testers is helping with German translations so this will be an area that needs testing as well soon.

Hi, this is a fascinating project! I can't wait to see the first release :-) Have you tried testing on LMS running in a docker environment? I'm running LMS Version: 7.9.0 - 1484464959 in Docker on a QNAP NAS. I have a few Duets, Classics and several ChromeCast (both the HDMI as well as the Audio version) connected using Philippes Cast Bridge, and it is a superb setup. I alos have Xsqueeze running in Kodi 16 on another NAS also connected to LMS. I guess the best part of it - and here's why I decided to mention it - is for testing purpose, using docker allows you to have many instances installed in "parallell", and if one crashes, it will never influence the others, and you will be up'n'running again by the click of a button. I don't mind testing this (but I have to arrange a date with Alexa first) :rolleyes: Rgds Oyvind QNAP TS-453Mini 4x3TB RAID5 QTS 4.2.2 LMS 7.9.0 running in Docker Madsonic 6.2 running in Docker Plex running in Docker QNAP HS-251 2x2TB RAID0, QTS 4.2.2 Kodi 16.1 Jarvis QNAP TS-119 1TB Single, QTS 4.2.2 Retired oyvindo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19302 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106569 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Hi Meep, I'd love to assist with the project. I'm in the process of moving house and have plans for multi-room audio that tie into my home automation. I'm using OpenHAB 2 as the platform at the moment and want to use Alexa to tie in the different components.

I'm in the UK and I'd love to get involved with testing if you're still looking for new people. I have 3x Classics, 1x Radio and 1x Touch, plus occasionally use my iPad via iPeng. I have two Echo dots (in rooms that have squeezeboxes). One of the SBs is called "Cinema" which I don't think you have listed yet, but I can rename it if necessary. Not sure if it's relevant but I'm running the LMS on a Windows Home Server 2011 machine. Thanks for helping to keep Squeezebox alive!

Thanks for this. All suggestions greatly accepted and I'll throw it in the mnix when we get to crunch time. Apologies if I missed your offer to help test. They've been coming think and fast and the more the merrier as not everyone can help out with every version. Can you PM me again please with the email you use for your echo / amazon developer account and I'll send you the invites.

How about changing the activation word to my device or my room? then it would be "alexa play in my room "basement.""? This would get a more flow of words then squeeze box. This is just my thought.

snoopy86 wrote: > I think "squeeze box" is cool and we are all used to this word by now so > why change it... I agree it's probably the best we've got. Plus, it has the advantage of being essentially one word but can be rendered as two to meet the requirements. However, possible reasons for change are. 1. Some testers report Alexa is not picking it up correctly when spoken 2. Some testers report that it's a little clunky to say (I tend to agree) 3. It conflicts with some users device naming which includes the word 'squeezebox' 4. There's still doubt over whether it will be acceptable as an invocation word when we get to certification I'm keeping an open mind on this and really value community input. I had another look at the skill guidelines last night and from the certification checklist, I noted that a skill must support multiple forms of syntax on skill invocation. So, in our case, the following are mandated to work; Alexa, ask/tell to OR Alexa, command on/with In our case, where 'Kitchen' is the squeezebox device name, this would result in; > 'Alexa, ask Squeeze Box to play Kitchen' OR > 'Alexa, play Kitchen with Squeeze Box' Now, I need to do more testing but this later formation -might -work with these kinds of syntax; > > 'Alexa, play on Kitchen Squeeze Box' > 'Alexa, play on Squeeze Box Kitchen' This is quite natural and easy to say and, if it works, would likely be the recommended way of doing things. Of course, it would still be recommended to remove the word 'squeezebox' from device names , otherwise the most accurate phrasing would need to be; > > 'Alexa, play on Squeeze Box squeezebox Kitchen' where 'Squeeze Box' is the required skill name and 'squeezebox' is part of the device name. Not confusing at all!!!
