Re: Select right album
What I do is i create an override for the expanded album. make sure that one the right side you add quotes so MyMedia knows that's what you want. If that don't work then I would add another override for the other one using quotes so MyMedia can tell the difference. Come to think of it i find it weir...

Re: Why is My Media for Alexa charged as a subscription instead of a one-off?
Right now I'm wondering about the price hike. I just checked the price of the renewal to make sure I had enough (I know I only paid $5 last year), only to find it's almost as much as spotify ($11 for Spotify Premium) right now. And all this because I want to play my own music collection on my Echo S...

Literal problem with the album "&"
That's right. I picked up an album from Sayaka Yamamoto called "&", and cant get MyMedia to understand no matter what I do. I have modified the override at least 15x with and without quotes. The best I can get is the album "fat of the land" from prodigy. Which is ironic because I didn't use any of t...

Re: Queries
I'm 41 as of right now and I can't even remember half the artists I have without actually looking at my media player. It doesn't help when I have enough music to put Spotify to shame.

Re: alexa, ask my media to wake me to ........
It would be cool to add all this. Right now, I use a routine set to play at a certain time. I setup the routine so that at a certain time to use the "Custom" action. In that action i type in "Ask my media to play the song song name. From there I go to "Hear Alexa From" option and choose my echo devi...

Re: Thumbnail quality improvement
I agree. the thumbnails look horrendous to start with. I almost can't make out ANY of the artwork at all, which makes no sense because I make sure my artwork is high resolution so that it can be crystal clear. as is the thumbnails look like they came from an CRT TV with horrible reception. In fact, ...

Re: Genre Issue (Blue-Eyed Soul)
For me the "...Pop" Genres work fairly well for the most part. As much of a music junkie as I am, I don't recall having heard any "Finnish...." Genres (Pop, Rock, Death Metal, R&B). I would have thought that doing an override like you did would work..... I would have probably added Quotes so MyMedia...

Re: The My Media skill not available on the android Alexa App?
If I understand correctly, the issue is that you're using an android device to control the media. The skill isn't intended for that. It uses an echo device and a media server in your home (such as a pc, or an actual media server with MYMEDIAFORALEXA installed on it. This requires an echo (I'm using ...

Re: Alexa readback
I was able to shut her up by simply going to settings and turning off playlist announcements. Yup, its that easy. Now she just plays what I ask for (for the most part) and keeps her mouth shut otherwise.

Genre Issue (Blue-Eyed Soul)
Believe it or not, the title should say it all. But just in case it doesn't, that is where my issue is. I actually have an album with this Genre. But no matter how I trie, I can't get MYMEDIA to even look at it. I have to go on a limb and guess that it's because there is a - in the Genre. But that c...

Song VS Album command issue (part 1)
I have an issue where I would ask MyMedia to play "[Song] from [Album]", and MyMedia would see the whole thing as the album. No matter how I word the command, this thing still insists that I'm asking about the album.... or it would just ignore half of what I said and just go with the album. How to i...
