3 different Alexa modules, which one is the best?

[borrigan]

@romain finally got it working by replacing myTest with default as you indicated. Than you so very much!! One short glitch though, sometimes Alexa’s phrases can not be heard completely. For example, at boot time I can hear “o” instead of “hello”. Same happens when talking to her.

But it is working!! Now time to test MMM-AlexaPi

Thanks again @romain

@romain quick question, I’ve noticed that Alexa takes a few seconds to answer, sometimes around 20 seconds. Does this happen to you as well? Could it be a slow internet connection. Thanks again!

@borrigan It happen to me as well. MMM-alexa seem a little faster but it’s a pain to use so I rather wait few second for an answer

@romain said in 3 different Alexa modules, which one is the best?:

To do it, first deactivate the service with the terminal by writing sudo systemctl stop AlexaPi.service; sudo systemctl disable AlexaPi.service (you can reactivate later by doing sudo systemctl enable AlexaPi.service).
Then you can run AlexaPi yourself by writing in the terminal /opt/AlexaPi/src/main.py -d (If you you putted it on that location anyway).

Thanks. This proves that the Pi can hear me, process the input, have Alexa provide a spoken response, and peace of mind for me… Also, the response is comparable to my standalone Alexa, when running in this mode. Too bad, I can just run this method all the time.

@romain I have the exact same problem and can’t seem to find any brief explanation. Did you manage to sort out Alexa yourself ?
