Re: Song repeats in playlist

Thanks, how would you say it, if you wanted that on all echos in the house? Well, two things here... If you're talking about multi-room music playback (aka your My Media music playing back on shuffle across multiple Echo Dots in different rooms of your home at the same time) then you would only hav...

Re: Song repeats in playlist

Same issue here, even with shuffle on. The only way to temporarily fix it for me is to restart my My Media server. How do you setup your shuffle on My Media please? I can turn on shuffle by saying "Alexa, open My Media and turn on shuffle." Thanks, how would you say it, if you wanted that on all ec...

Indexing Extremely Slow on Newest Windows Release of My Media (1.3.147.994)

Hello, I recently updated my My Media server to run the latest Windows build (1.3.147.994) and now when songs are indexed from a watched folder on a locally shared mapped network drive it is taking so much longer for all songs to be indexed. I have somewhere around 4,000 music files in my library wh...

Re: Just stopped working

When I make a request, Alexa responds accordingly "Playing X from your mymedia collection", but no music is played. It just stopped working out of the blue... no changes and it was working fine a week ago. Are there logs somewhere separate from the systemctl log? The logs in the web server console ...

Re: Is there anyone left here ?

The author was originally helpful - he even let me be a part of a beta multi-room music beta test version like two years ago and it worked well! But then it stopped working and he wouldn't return my emails :( There is a similar Alexa Skill/app called Our Jukebox that basically does a lot of what My ...
