My Media for Alexa runs on the PC as a service, so the app does not need to be open. The only downside is that the PC needs to be on, but I can live with that - its on most of the time anyway!.
I also see on their website that there is now a download version (beta at the moment) for the PI - could this be added IDC, Martin?
<Can you try the following:
<pi@raspberrypi:/ $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
<If it doesn’t work, please let me know which version of Raspbian you are running
<Thanks, Ed
My question - is it worth a try? I have flashed my original pre-NAS SD card with the latest software version so I have a backup if I corrupt anything, or is there something else I can 'break'??

....enabled NAS as instructed but I cannot see my B2 as a network item on my laptop.
The only issue I had was with playlists - it does not recognise the B2 ones as they seem to be a relative path.
I solved that by creating my own playlists for the app, using an absolute path for each track.
