A few weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure of doing an interview for a new video series done by the wonderful Amazon Alexa Developers crew. It was shot in our beautiful #Hageloft at MUUUH! Group HQ.

Game crashes at the end, probably due to a bad wifi. There's also a bit of input lag when using my Android device with the Luna Controller App. I'm still impressed though as I never imagined this could work on an Echo Show 15 Alexa device.

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

Thanks to @amazonluna streaming service you can now play @EpicGames #Fornite on your #Alexa #EchoShow15 with #FireTV mode by using Luna Controller App on your smartphone! It's still a bit buggy and laggy but this is another neat feature for this piece of hardware! #Voice

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

Using a @PlayStation 5 Controller doesn't work (yet?). Controller connects fine via Bluetooth but cannot be used as no input is detected. If @amazon @alexadevs get this working, it could be a great addition!

Alexa Developers! My team and I have been working on a new hands-on educational tool, Alexa Learning Labs. We recently published some new #Alexa #APL topics.

Get started: https://t.co/6fbPsFsiWz

8 years on Twitter! Most days were fun mainly because of the fantastic #voice community! Not sure whats the future holds for Twitter, though.

An update for Echo Dot might break "Follow Up Mode", Amazon just announced via Notification and E-Mail to customers. But there's an easy solution. Just say: "Alexa, turn on follow up mode" to enable it again.

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

@Anrufliste @alexadevs @AlexadevsDe @alexa99 I'll be using the old API for as long as possible. It's way more flexible. But migrating to the new ProActive Events (+Schemas) is easy if it ever comes to that.

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

Amazon updated the UI for Notifications on Alexa display-devices like Echo Show. Now's the time to enable our two most useful Alexa Skills to keep you updated about food recall and other alerts!

Food recall: https://t.co/ZdZvNstVmN

Population alerts: https://t.co/xc4fXkHPsW

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

@Anrufliste @alexadevs @AlexadevsDe @alexa99 Using ProActive Events although they lack flexibility or a free form Schema. StreamPlayer is still using the old Notifications API, but afaik this never got out of beta. No word on deprecating the old API, though.

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

Die Anzeige von Benachrichtigungen auf Echo Show Geräten wurde aktualisiert. Direkt unsere beiden Skills aktivieren, um über Lebensmittelwarnungen sowie Gefahrenwarnmeldungen informiert zu werden.

@bretkinsella It's also possible to remove or report an ad

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

#Alexa in Germany starts to advertise via Display Ads and allows interaction, here playback of the trailer, via voice command. #voiceads #alexaads #homecards #echoshow #voicecommerce

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

@bretkinsella "play the trailer" starts to play a 30 second video. After the video the screen returns to the home screen (back to the ad)

Saying "play the trailer" on any other home card is not playing the trailer. So voice commands for a specific home card seem to be possible

[Daniel Mittendorf @DanMittendorf]

Vote for the #Oscars via #Alexa sounds like dreams of the future? In Germany Alexa users can now vote for the Deutscher Hörfilmpreis (Award for Audio described Films) Plus: We're using Voice-forward Consent for Permissions! 🚀
