[DEPRECATED] Echo Speaks

[coops8d]

Just another question, is there a particular way the spotify search works? For example I search Australian top 100 and says can not find anything. Would of thought that would be a pretty easy search?

EDIT: never mind, seems to just be very specific as Australia top 100 worked just not with Australian

Always try searching on Spotify directly first, found a few of mine which wouldnt work. Artists are way better though

Ok, I think I am all screwed up. I upgraded and now echo speaks won’t recognize any of my devices. I believe followed all the Instructions properly. So, I tried uninstalling the devices and app and starting fresh. Still no luck recognize my devices in the app. The devices are actually getting created in the device list but the app is not recognizing them. I did miss two rules which contained echo speaks actions on them when I started all this upgrade. Perhaps that screwed something up during the upgrade.

Any help would appreciated.

EDIT: Echo Speaks is throwing this error. Don't know if this helps? don't know how to interpret this.

Make sure to install the web socket device

thanks for getting back to me. I didn't see this in the instructions. Can you point me to the instruction on how to do that. Maybe i am just being a bit "thick". Perhaps it should be obvious. I will keep looking for that.

It’s not in the instructions yet because this is still in beta. Being in the beta should imply that you know how to find and install code.
Just look at the beta repo and locate the new driver and the new zone app and install them both.

Sorry, Didn't intend to be in beta. I just went to the github. Perhaps i downloaded the wrong thing. I will check into your suggestion. Thanks.

[RELEASE] Echo Speaks v3 + Actions

Nope install all of the new code: Echo Speaks Echo Speaks Zones Echo Speaks Action Echo Speaks Device Echo Speaks Websocket Open Echo Speaks press Done and wait about 20 seconds and the device will install itself and open the connection and just start working. You can see in the logs when the connection is established. One way to test it's working is to open one of the devices and watch the volume attribute while you change the volume from one of your echo devices.

Thanks for the link, What I did to get to the code installed is simple go to the original RELEASE version page above in this thread. The documentation link above takes you to the 3.1 code but doesn't include links to the WS and the Zones Child Apps. that might confuse others because it seems mixed. Just letting you know.
