Alexa TTs on Fire Tv Cube

[Guest Benrive]

Hi,

 

I am trying to use TTS on a Fire Tv cube, but a send a command for ip to alexa cube and alexa does not receive them.
It tells me connection refused.
Do you know if it is possible to use this device?

Well, if you ask me. TTS works with alexa. But you don't send the commands to the device itself.

You need a script or some other way to send a TTS command through the amazon servers.

 

Could you explain a little more what you are trying to do ?

Hello @ppeterr,

 

I would like from all in one AOQ to use its TTS function.  I have everything set up but I can't get my Alexa fire tv cube to play anything.  I have also tried with Voice Monkey installed on Alexa.  but even the triger that is shown does not work.  More tests, with IFFT the same.  I don't play anything.  AOQ sends a line to the fixed IP and port 8080 of my Alexa.  but the connection is refused.  I really don't know what else to try

Oke, i dont know much about the All-In-One quickapp. I think you might get an answer if you

post in that topic itself about your problem.

 

I am using a different method.

In short, this script runs on a secundairy device (like a NAS(docker) or RPi, or anything that can

run a small webserver. If you want to go that road. I can help you.

I have a Synology NAS, but it's old and can't run docker. I'll try with a RPI3, and if I have doubts I'll ask you. Because no other method allows me to run TTS.
Thanks

Sure, just to get you started.

 

- install LAMP 

- Be sure to have the JQ package also installed.

- Get the refresh token 

Please login or register to see this link.

- Edit the alexa_remote_control.sh script with your info and that token

 

Test the script on the CLI

 

../alexa_remote_control.sh -e speak:'This is a test'

 

If this works, your almost there
