Introduction
1. The difference between
the MusicCast Smart Home skill and
the MusicCast skill
MusicCast Smart Home skill
The MusicCast Smart Home skill supports the most common, everyday voice
commands you would use to control a single MusicCast AV receiver, sound
bar, wireless speaker or Hi-Fi receiver. These basic commands include power on/off,
volume control, play/pause/skip/previous, mute/unmute and input selection.
This skill supports simple, Alexa-standardized commands such as “Alexa,
volume up in the Kitchen.”
MusicCast skill
The MusicCast skill goes beyond the basics, giving you enhanced control
of unique MusicCast functions such as room linking, multiple room control,
playback of MusicCast Favorites/Playlists and more. The commands are
customized for MusicCast, for example “Alexa, ask MusicCast to link the
Kitchen with the Living Room.”
2. About Connect ID
Connect ID is the user registration system for Yamaha. All users are required to
create a new Connect ID account in order to use MusicCast skills with Alexa.
