Even if they have multiple Echos, at least one (or two!) is often an Echo Show. The Echo Show is a popular choice among smart home users. One of the newest Echo Shows to grace the scene is the Echo Show 15, which boasts a laptop-rivalling 15.6-inch screen. For example, there’s the Echo Show 5, with a 5.5-inch screen, the Echo Show 8, with an 8-inch screen, and the Echo Show 10 with a 10.1-inch screen. The Echo Show comes in a few different versions, each named after the size of its screen. The Echo Show takes all the functionality of other Echos – but with the added benefit of a screen. Part of this line of devices is the Amazon Echo Show. If you are interested, here is the link: echotalk.Amazon has an extensive line of Echo devices. 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. 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.
