Title: Open a specific bookmark or youtube video using your voice
Post by: icepick on January 06, 2019, 12:29:05 am

Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to have my Echo Show 2 open a specific video (for example the new channel France 24 live) or maybe a bookmark I made using my voice?
Right now I can start firefox but i still need to navigate on the screen to get to the bookmark i wanted.
Any ideas?
Regards
Alex

I dont really understand your answer.. the only skills I can find seem to deal with bookmarks for real books. I am talking about opening a webbrowser bookmark by using your voice.

I know exactly what you are talking about.

Could you please provide a URL or a search term which would allow finding such a skill?

I have been searching the Alexa Skills store (https://www.amazon.com/alexa-skills/b/?ie=UTF8&node=13727921011) up and down and cannot find anything at all.

Specifically, I am looking for a skill which launches https://www.youtube.com/tv on the built-in Firefox browser of the Amazon Echo Show 2.
