Audio Not Working #113

Open goos3die opened 6 years ago

goos3die commented 6 years ago

Hey guys,

When I upload MP3s the Alexa service doesn't seem to recognise it at all. Any ideas? This is for flash news briefing.

tomharrigan commented 6 years ago

@goos3die can you provide a sample file or the URL of the endpoint?

goos3die commented 6 years ago

Sure thing.

So right now the skill is working for text-to-voice briefings at https://goos3d.ie/wp-json/voicewp/v1/skill/briefing - but previously, using the plugin I'd just upload audio and that would work too. Now it's not.

I know in the Alexa skill set up, I've selected text but even when I tried to select audio, Amazon rejected the skill as it couldn't receive the feed.

I’m seeing this same behavior. I upload an mp3, and it only reads the title but doesn’t play the enclosure.

I'm going to run some tests today. @goos3die since the feed doesn't contain an mp3, can you send me a link to one of the mp3 files that weren't working? @deskpops ditto.

This was mine, just a test piece of audio: https://alexaguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/daily-briefing-1-122617-4.29-PM.mp3

Thanks for your help!
