Amazon has released the Monocle IP Camera Alexa Skill to Mexico and Spain as of 2019, April 2.

@Nyutu

That is odd. I would suggest contacting Amazon Alexa support. There is nothing on our side we can really do to troubleshoot multiple camera skills and why Alexa would have problems … as long as the device names are different across the multiple camera skills (which in your case they are “Front Door” (Ring) and “Nursery” (Monocle) ).

The Monocle skill is a “smart home skill” and thus all of the voice commands are entirely managed by Amazon. So it’s not like we are getting the request and can’t figure out which camera to provide. We only receive request from Amazon with the targeted camera that Alexa has pre-determined.

Thanks, Robert

@CS

Unfortunately we are limited to the regions supported by Amazon’s Smart Home camera skill. Please see: https://developer.amazon.com/docs/smarthome/build-smart-home-camera-skills.html#regions

If Amazon adds support for Malaysia, then we could as well.

Thanks, Robert

@Monocle

Yes it is the same platform indeed. Thanks for the quick answer.

@Monocle Pretty cool project! I already thought about that, because the code and the description looked a lot like https://github.com/MonocleCam/MonocleArduino ;)

@autodrivel

Absolutely!

You can do that here:

Sorry, v0.0.5 has been on hold while I tackle other commitments. So not much recent progress there.

You could just create a docker volume for holding the config file (monocle.token, monocle.properties from /etc/monocle) so that the container is not mounting any writable path on your host, but the docker volume could persist your monocle config outside of the lifecycle of the container instances.

In the interim … if there is anything you can do to the docker image to make the config better/easier, feel free to make changes to the Dockerfile and submit a pull request and I can include it in the image: https://github.com/MonocleCam/monocle-gateway-docker

Thanks!

@Monocle

Support for French [CA] was added on 2019-04-02.

@fusswolf Still cant get it working :-( I tried installing the gateway on another machine and get the same issue.

I chose to go this route: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MU2WVO7?pf_rd_p=ab873d20-a0ca-439b-ac45-cd78f07a84d8&pf_rd_r=98DGZJ8VVS4CY8V92KJT

If you need an HDMI source fed into alexa/firetv using monocle
