Amazon Echo Buds & Alexa & Hopper

[mrhoni]

Got Echo Buds hoping I can use those to listen to Hopper via bluetooth AND control the volume as bluetooth headsets without volume controls can't control the Hopper volume.

On the Hopper I did the Alexa setup with the code to the Echo Buds, but no sound coming out of the Buds and seems I need to have the Buds paired with the Hopper and my iPhone and Alexsa app?

It was very confusing setup. I suspect its not possible but hoping someone here knows OR knows of a bluetooth transmitter that I can connect to the Tv that can control transmit volume. So far I've only found those that can only control receiver volume.

Got Echo Buds

I hadn't heard of them so I went to the Amazon page. So new that there are no reviews yet. If you get them to work, let us know what you think!

I've seen a few reviews on tech blogs about the buds. I thought the Bluetooth transmitter that could control the volume, etc. was your iPhone/Alexa app.

There was a post on the portal about these and “fix” was to set the volume with a Apple device

Do you have a link to this “fix”? I don’t know what portal you are referring. Thanks.

It's a forum for Dish Techs only

I would guess the Apple forums might be of help in setting the volume on the Apple ear buds.
