Second, you need to be running Plex Media Server (at least version 0.9.16.0 or newer) linked to a Plex account with remote access enabled. If you are interested, here is the link: echotalk. This include the original product, the Amazon Echo as well as the Echo Dot, the Tap, the Fire TV and the Fire Tablet. You have what you need to know to set it up for yourself. Instead, I will post a link below where I have kept a log of my activities and recently posted instructions for another forum member. To change it, in the Alexa app go to Settings then Device Settings then select the Echo device youd like to change the wake word on (you have to change each devices settings individually). If you want to do same with your equipment, I am not going to give directions in this post. Instructions are scattered around the internet, and I had to piece it all together. Example command: “Alexa, ask Plex to play Miles Davis” and his music tracks begin playing on the stereo.Īfter a lot of trial and error, I got this whole thing to work. Right now, my stereo is playing music by an artist I told Alexa to have Plex play. In a nutshell, I (and others) have been using the voice control of Alexa to tell Plex to select music (and video) stored and served by my WD NAS to play the media on a stereo, TV, and other devices such as a Roku and an Alexa Dot (via its audio out) to the stereo. It is an idea for USERS of WD upper tier NAS devices to consider doing, because it is cool and it works! This is the most appropriate forum in which to alert a lot of users of the products. First of all, this is not an idea for WD to consider.
