Add Aliases for Amazon Echo Dot 3 & 4 #1566
Conversation
Update to the documentation to include the aliases from https://github.com/custom-components/alexa_media_player
@wranglatang @Mirabis @sockmonkey0223 There are also two other issues created where there are other model ID's referenced. Let's also resolve that in this PR. C78MP8 seem to be model id for Gen3 (In the original PR D91029T) B7W644 for Gen4 (in the original PR B7W64E) |
I just read the Model ID off the bottom of the device but i have recently noticed that when using the unofficial Alexa Media Player integration the model ID's are different. Seems like we have a few different options Gen 3:
Gen 4:

Here is my Gen 3 Echo DOT Charcoal:
My Gen 4 Echo DOT Glacier White:

Hmm okay, so looks like different models for different colours -_- Maybe its best to just have the model as Gen3 & Gen4 and then the user just selects that in the GUI or code. |
+ fix Echo Dot Gen 3. / Modell C78MP8 bramstroker#1569
Kudos, SonarCloud Quality Gate passed! |
Those are identical, so most likely the model doesn't change for colour but for features. The version with clock has B7W644, other variants may have other IDs as well. Echo Plus Gen 2 reports as @bramstroker I've updated the PR for the specified issues and double checked the ID's in the other repo. More aliases should be added later on, but I do not have all the device types nor time (at the moment) to dig through the logs people post on the custom integration. |
Thanks. Looks fine like this. Think we can merge. |

Hi,
I kept track of the releases and heard Amazon Echo deices were supported - yay. However, after trying and trying I found out that the IDs are different when not using the official integration. There's a popular unofficial version (free) that is available on HACS but those use a different ID.
I added both the aliases as I have both devices in HA. Repo for custom component is: https://github.com/custom-components/alexa_media_player
