Will House Band ever support Google Home?
« on: March 19, 2018, 08:52:35 am »

Alexa wasn't available in Canada for years, only Google Home was.  So I went with Home.  Works great controlling lights, Philips Hue, etc.  Also works well with Google Music and other services.  But I can't seem to figure out how to play my MP3 collection via MC.

Are there any plans to expand House Band to include support for Google Home?

This is likely the response you'd get: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,102709.msg785913.html#msg785913

A while back I started work on it....and got pretty far. But really, in the limited time I have to spend on this (which has been no time lately), I will continue to work on Alexa.

Lack of time is likely the factor there.

Yep. I think Awesome Donkey is right. Porting to Google Home is unlikely at this point. Sorry...
