Here that would be different. I would need to have the list of alexa players to be bridged and I can create as many matching LMS players as I want. Today I do UPnP and mDNS discovery but you might want to give them to me using another way. Then you query LMS and use a special named category to know which ones a alexa bridges. What codecs does alexa accept? What is the way you want to grab audio? A HTTP server is good enough? Is the skill pointing alexa to an URLs where to do a GET? I cant remember that from our experiments with Paul. I need to look at the code and its a bit late for now. LMS 7.9 on Pi 3B+ & Odroid-C2 - *SqueezeAMP!*, 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet, 1xTouch, 1 SB3.
