    My dad had a ring door bell and a fire tv stick & I do think it would help him also with an echo dot linked altogether so glad to see this video thanks I hopefully can sort all 3 at some point to get it all working once I’ve got an echo dot hopefully he will be ok with the plan

    I’ve searched all over the internet for the answer to this question with no luck, is there any way of making the volume full on the eco device for doorbell sounds, like if I’m using It for background music then forget to turn it back up I can barely hear the doorbell?

    • @LiamsTechGuide
      @LiamsTechGuide  3 роки тому

      You could possibly set a routine, that may work so when the doorbell in pressed it will play a certain chime at whatever volume you want it to?

    Hi I have the 4K fire stick with Alexa, that is the only Alexa device I have in my house, I followed your instructions. The message you warned about “sorry we could not find any devices to link” came up, it all appears ok, it’s in my skills, I changed my password so all my Amazon is under one password, I logged out of my fire stick and Alexa app then back in again to link with no success. Do I need a dot or Alexa to do this. Btw thanks for taking the time to do the vid.

    • @LiamsTechGuide
      @LiamsTechGuide  4 роки тому

      Hi Steve, I don’t think you need another Alexa device as the fire stick is a standalone Alexa device. I would advise removing the skill and then re downloading and see if that fixes the issue.

    Echo does not chime with the Ring wired doorbell, even though it is linked, and shows in the Alexa app as "Front door" I thought this was going to be an easy set up, it is anything but that. Ready to return everything back to Amazon.

      @LiamsTechGuide  5 років тому

      As far as I’m aware I don’t think there is without additional hardware, the only way I think that you could get the TV to do this is with some additional hardware by having a Logitech harmony and setting a routine with that.

    Nice video. The front door chime worked well.

    • @LiamsTechGuide
      @LiamsTechGuide  5 років тому

      To be honest it’s more of a gimmick than a feature I feel at the moment as the time delay is too long, I’m hoping that in the future they can speed this process up. The timing out issue has happened with myself on the tv and viewing it on my mobile but this has only happened ever since there last update so it could be software related

      First thing to check is that it is a second gem firestick if it is, It could be a number of things but normally the main culprit is the Wi-fi signal between the doorbell, router and firestick so check on the ring app the connection strength that it has

      Hi, to do this you need to go into the following- Alexa app > Devices > Echo & Alexa and then you need to click on each individual echo device you want to chime and make sure “do not disturb” is off and “communication” is enabled.
      It should then work.

    • @LiamsTechGuide
      @LiamsTechGuide  4 роки тому

      Check the Wi-fi connection on both devices (if using Wi-fi on the fire stick) it’s the most common problem when this happens. If not then delete the ring app from Alexa and re do the process as I must admit it’s very hit and miss it when it works it would appear

    • @LiamsTechGuide
      @LiamsTechGuide  2 роки тому

      Sorry for the delay.
      Your sister will need to go into the firestick:
      Open the Amazon Alexa app.
      Select “Devices” on the bottom menu.
      Choose “Cameras“.
      Select the name of the Ring doorbell (Front door, Back door, etc.)
      Select the cog wheel located at the upper-right part of the screen.
      Select “Announcement Devices“.
      Deselect / uncheck the Fire TV devices listed.
      👍
      and then her her to uninstall the ring skill.

      I would say in that scenario they possibly could (never really thought about it) but to prevent this you would need to change your ring account password and de register your amazon account from the firestick online via amazon.co.uk or whatever your regional amazon website address is.

      If you have an original Fire TV Stick it is not compatible but It is compatible with all generations of Fire TV and the second generation upwards of the Fire TV Stick.
      If you have a compatible device check to see if there is an update for the Firestick.
