Feat: add audioitem for echo spot

Open senufo opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hi, I added the metadata parameter in audioitem as described here: https://developer.amazon.com/fr/docs/custom-skills/audioplayer-interface-reference.html#play With the metadata we add the support for the screens alexa devices. I tested on Echo Spot.

WIth this an object providing metadata about the audio to be displayed on the Alexa-enabled device with a screen. Note that this metadata displays only on the devices. It is not shown in the Alexa app.

Regards

Hi, I tried the audio samples from samples folder flask-ask/samples/audio/simple_demo/. When testing this inn alexa test console, it throws an error.

What could be the problem?

Thanks, Sam

I am using ask sonic. They use this library, and I was looking to add this functionality there. I thought it was a simple fix, because the Alexa device does receive a response with metadata and the URL for the album cover. However, the height and width properties are set to 0. I guess this causes it not to be displayed? Is that something that an issue should be opened for, or does your code not send anything that would cause the URL to fill in?
