Hi @willblaschko , @JeremiahStephenson , @jorgesilva , @mattgmg1990 , @quangson91

Using this sample application when @ I try with the command 'read me a book from kindle', the response is

{"directive":{"header":{"namespace":"AudioPlayer","name":"Play","messageId":"01b206f3-e6d6-49d8-8b1c-960ae993c6ee","dialogRequestId":"dialogRequest-321"},"payload":{"audioItem":{"audioItemId":"ebotts_audio_resource_group_idb8d70c0a-eae0-4a8d-8a80-ac094c133251","stream":{"offsetInMilliseconds":0,"expiryTime":"2017-11-21T10:12:47+0000","url":"https://tinytts-eu-west-1.amazon.com/2/6200137c-cea4-11e7-8a5a-c55df8489cfa-fa3d90/2/1511345507020/efb0403784dce7a05f52c7766f934b92d615407b53df7314cc753b193cf60cc5/resource.mp3","token":"amzn1.as-ct.v1.EBottsClientId#ACRI#url#ACRI#b8d70c0a-eae0-4a8d-8a80-ac094c133251:9187"}},"playBehavior":"REPLACE_ALL"}}}

The URL played successfully and on completion, i will send the intent with header 'PlaybackFinished'. But after that, no response is received.

In echo dot (using the same account) the playback continues until the user stops it.

The issue will be fixed if we send the PlaybackNearlyFinished event to AVS , The next URL for playback is receiving only after sending the PlaybackNearlyFinished.

Thanks @rohith-krish, I am looking into the issue. Is that PlaybackNearlyFinished for SpeechSynthesizer/AudioPlayer?

[rohith-krish]

Yes PlaybackNearlyFinished event

[willblaschko]

Just for reference, PlaybackNearlyFinished needs to support both AvsPlayAudioItem and AvsPlayRemoteItem for this use case to work.

thanks @willblaschko, yes implemented for AvsPlayRemoteItem also. Its working pretty good. I think PlaybackNearlyFinished needs to support AvsPlayContentItem for this use case also.
