Hi folks,
Recently picked up an Echo Dot, which apparently does not have a native skill to interact with my LG TVOS 3 television. However, there's this nifty Python script that seems to act as an interpretation layer on a separate system: https://github.com/akhan23wgu/amazon-alexa-lg-tv
I was hoping to try to run this on my RT-AC68U on asuswrt-merlin 384.5, as I don't have any other systems that are 'always' on. I'm a bit of a newbie to custom scripts on Asuswrt-merlin. I've got entware and python installed on the router, but I'm not quite sure how to go about the next steps.
First, does it even seem like this script will run on the router? Second, is it as easy as following this for Python scripts? Just put the
in the post-mount shell script after putting everything in its correct place in storage?
If I had a spare router then I'd just go to town on testing, but I don't so I'm a little hesitant to just throw things in there without some confirmation that it's the right track. Sorry if this seems basic.
Thanks!
