Hi, there is a new Alexa Module

[BD0G]

@sdetweil Still have not been able to open the Dev Console using Ctrl- Shift -i. :(

@techcoderun you just bought a new Dot and the mirror was detected?

[techcoderun]

@Fozi Yes, literally just the new dot. But I had literally had the first Alexa that came out a few years ago, so it might of had some issues.

[Fozi]

@techcoderun That’s interesting. I am somewhat buffeled because even with the a the mirror isn’t detected.

[techcoderun]

@Fozi Agreed, no clue what fixed the problem. I tried @Stoffbeuteluwe’s config file with the old Alexa, no luck. I received my Dot a few hours later, plugged it in, and voilà, “I’ve discovered 18 new devices.” My guess is maybe some outdated WiFi related hardware on the 1st Gen Alexa?

@techcoderun As the cyberweek on Amazon comes closer and I need another Dot anyways, I‘m curious if I’ lol succeed, too.

@techcoderun
Suddenly my MM got detected on with my old Echo Dot Gen. 1 and without the installation of the other modules. I can‘t say why. Alexas feedback after scanning for new devices was misleading, too. She answers that no new devices were detected, but I found four new devices in the device list. Anyways, it seems to work and now I‘m thinking about a fitting use case for my needs.

Hmm, Perhaps I need to revisit this module?

Now that everything is working, here is a video of this module in ACTION!

@techcoderun Thanks for the video, well done!
