• Samsung/alexa woes again.

    From Brian Gaff (Sofa)@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 19 09:03:53 2022
    Ever since a software update just after Christmas, Alexa in the tv has been flaky. You tell it channel 10, it says tuning to 10, and then leaves it
    where it is, a couple of days later its back working again, then it goes off again.
    Also some skills behave oddly, so for instance a skill called Mushroom
    escape on a normal Alexa works then you enable the skill with a lady
    enable mushroom fm skill
    there after saying a lady play mushoom fm works.
    On the tv onley th e enable bit will play the station as if it forgets when
    a skill is enabled.

    Why do companies fix a problem and apparently creat several more?

    Its now saying cannot connect to samsung, which is bonkers as it is in the bloody set and is only just over a year old. So you cannot even open the settings now, it just says cannot find that or other similarly useless
    things.
    Bah humbug. I feel a hardware reset coming on.
