Well, until you get rid of that 405 error in the Alexa console, it’s not going to work. Make sure you’ve got that part set up correctly.

HASS will also throw a 405 if you’re trying to do a GET instead of a POST, though I don’t recall getting a choice on that during Alexa setup.

65

I made it simple as you suggested, but still the same

{
  "intents": [
    {
  "intent": "ActivateSceneIntent",
  "slots":
  [
    {
      "name" : "Scene",
      "type" : "Scenes"
    }
  ]
}
     ]
}

and utterance

ActivateSceneIntent activate {Scene}

and in configuration

alexa:
  intents:
    ActivateSceneIntent:
      action:
        service: scene.turn_on
        data_template:
          entity_id: scene.{{ Scene | replace(" ", "_") }}
      speech:
        type: plaintext
        text: OK

correct no option get/popst in Alexa setup. Where can I start to troubleshoot, I have no idea …

67

I think you’ve got something wrong on the Alexa setup. Not much I can do to help you there.

Give this a read:

68

Where did you find this? I’m not seeing it in /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant? Can you help?

69

in HAAS or on Amazon server?

70

this, what?

71

I’m confused on where you found the www directory, because I don’t see it under /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/

72

you create a www directory and you put the videos in it

73

How so? Sorry for the dumb questions.

74

in linux:
mkdir www

75

Do I need to make a local folder also within the www folder or no? Do I just copy over my video?

76

inside www copy the video

77

My automation is loading up the chromecast symbol, however it’s not playing. Is this due to the file size being around 3gb?

78

Sadly, I’m unable to get the video to stream. :frowning:

79

yes one user reported size issues. Mine is 1,5Gb and is working. Try using a maller file

81

It’s working now! Now I’m planning on trying to get it to work with just say “Alexa turn on …” or “Okay Google turn on …” Have you got it to work with Alexa or google home?

82

yes, one of the two for sure, maybe both, can’t remember now, I am not at home

83

Can you update me whenever you’re able to and explain to me how? Thank you!

check emulated hue component and script component. Below is mine.
Before launching don’t forget to make ALexa DISCOVER DEVICES. Not sure about GH, I think he does it automatically, so you need to wait until he discovers them

emulated_hue:
  host_ip: 192.168.1.239
  expose_by_default: true
  exposed_domains:
    - switch
    - script

script:
    # Script camino acceso
  fire_place:
    alias: Fire place
    sequence:
      - alias: Media play fireplace
        service: media_player.play_media
        data:
          entity_id: media_player.cast_living
          media_content_type: video/mp4
          media_content_id: http://192.168.1.239:8123/local/fireplace.mp4
      - alias: Dimmed living
        service: scene.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: scene.dimmed_living
