Does it support an mp3 file?

in SingleStream/lambda/py/lambda_function.py
line 481 and line 485 : sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackStartedHandler()) is duplicated:

sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackStartedHandler())
sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackFinishedHandler())
sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackStoppedHandler())
sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackNearlyFinishedHandler())
sb.add_request_handler(PlaybackStartedHandler())

Hi,

Quick question. When using the next intent, you are able to get a card to print to screen and also echo the title of the track. When the audio stream has control and playback continues through your array, there is no cards\title echoed back to the user. Is there a way to make the automatic playback behave like the next intent?

TY

def play_later(url, card_data, response_builder):
    """Play the stream later.

    https://developer.amazon.com/docs/custom-skills/audioplayer-interface-reference.html#play
    REPLACE_ENQUEUED: Replace all streams in the queue. This does not impact the currently playing stream.
    """
    # type: (str, Dict, ResponseFactory) -> Response
    if card_data:
        # Using URL as token as they are all unique
        response_builder.add_directive(
            PlayDirective(
                play_behavior=PlayBehavior.REPLACE_ENQUEUED,
                audio_item=AudioItem(
                    stream=Stream(
                        token=url,
                        url=url,
                        offset_in_milliseconds=0,
                        expected_previous_token=None),
                    metadata=add_screen_background(card_data)))
        ).set_should_end_session(True)

        return response_builder.response

The above function will return an invalid response if card_data is empty. The function should still return a valid response.

Hello, if there is something wrong the method AllExceptionsHandler() is invoked and a speak message offers you to said "help" and finish. At that moment Alexa is no longer running the skill so if I said "Alexa, help" alexa answer but no the answer programmed in HelpIntentHandler(). How can I program it so that if something is not understand and launch AllExceptionHandler if the user saids "Alexa, help" it goes to HelpIntentHandler?

Hello,

I was just checking this skill and going through the code I saw this:

class NextOrPreviousIntentHandler(AbstractRequestHandler):
    """Handler for next or previous intents."""
    def can_handle(self, handler_input):
        # type: (HandlerInput) -> bool
        return (is_intent_name("AMAZON.NextIntent")(handler_input) or
                is_intent_name("AMAZON.PreviousIntent")(handler_input))

    def handle(self, handler_input):
        # type: (HandlerInput) -> Response
        logger.info("In NextOrPreviousIntentHandler")
        _ = handler_input.attributes_manager.request_attributes["_"]
        handler_input.response_builder.speak(
            _(data.CANNOT_SKIP_MSG)).set_should_end_session(True)
        return handler_input.response_builder.response

What I had found odd was the in data.py there is no CANNOT_SKIP_MSG. Am I missing something here?.

Thank you very much in advanced.

[Update]: I can see now. Just checked the same file and class in the SingleStream code and, because it is a radio, you cannot skip therefore that message should be there, however I am afraid that for podcasts it should be possible to play next and previous episodes, right?. Thanks again.

[Update#2]: Just saw there is a verification of a playback session for the AMAZON.NextIntent and AMAZON.PreviousIntent , when there is a play back session then it is possible to play next and previous. Thanks again :D
