Fire TV Cube (2nd Gen) has an ultra-powerful hexa-core processor that makes it
more than twice as powerful as the first generation device. Plus we’ve added
support for Dolby Vision and HDR 10+ content. The device delivers a fast, fluid
experience with instant access to 4K Ultra HD content at up to 60 frames per
second. Fire TV Cube (2nd Gen) also comes with Local Voice Control, which is a
new on-device processing feature that lets customers more quickly run some of
the most frequent voice commands. For example, “Alexa, scroll right,” "Alexa, go
home," "Alexa, select number one," and more are up to 4 times as fast as before.
Whether it’s turning on the TV, searching for your favorite music video on
YouTube, or dimming the lights, you can simply ask Alexa from across the room
with Fire TV Cube.

Fire TV Cube (1st Gen) was the first Fire TV device offering a hands-free TV
experience (far-field control) — you can use your voice to access, launch, and
control content, turn on your TV and AV devices, switch inputs, adjust the
volume, play music, and more, without a remote or without pairing an Echo device
with your Fire TV. When your TV is off, Fire TV Cube acts like an Amazon Echo;
when your TV is on, it also acts like a Fire TV. If you have enabled voice
control with your app, users can control media playback through their voice, and
more. Like Fire TV (3rd Gen), Fire TV Cube provides 4K ultra HD at 60 fps, HDR10
for bolder contrast and more vibrant colors, and Dolby Atmos for richer sound.
Fire TV Cube's infrared blaster allows it to interact with your TV and AV setup.

FAQ FOR FIRE TV CUBE
Tip: For questions about the Fire TV Cube device itself, see Fire TV Cube Voice
Control Compatibility on Amazon.com. The information below relates to app
development for the device.
Do I need to do anything differently in my app for Fire TV Cube than for other
Fire TV devices?
Your app should work the same on Fire TV Cube as it does on other devices.
However, Fire TV Cube tries to provide more of a hands-free TV experience,
letting users control their TV, search for content, play/rewind/fast-forward
content, etc., with their voice (without the need to push the voice button on a
remote control). As such, to align with the voice interactivity of Fire TV, you
should voice-enable your app.
How can I voice-enable my app? There are two main approaches to voice-enable
your app:
* Video Skills Kit (VSK): The Video Skills Kit provides a deep integration of
your app's functionality and content with voice. VSK integration allows
customers to use their voice to search and find your app's content (from Fire
TV's universal search, not just within your app), launch content, control
media playback, and more. The VSK integration has a couple of prerequisites.
To integrate the VSK, your content must be integrated into the Amazon
Catalog. To qualify for Catalog integration, if you have video-on-demand
content, it must be in IMDb. After your app has gone through catalog
integration, reach out to a solutions architect at Amazon for more
information about integrating the Video Skills Kit. See Video Skills Kit for
Fire TV for more details.
* MediaSession: If you don't want to incorporate the VSK, you can implement
Android MediaSession, which lets users control media playback through
transport controls (play, fast-forward, rewind, etc). (MediaSession doesn't
provide deeper voice integration to enable content discovery, channel
changing, app launching, or other functionality.) To implement MediaSession,
first check to see if you have already implemented the Android Media Sessions
API. If you have, all you need to do is add a permission to your app's
manifest file and implement voice commands for transport controls like play,
pause, resume, rewind, fast-forward, and skip content. See Implement
Voice-enabled Transport Controls with the Android Media Session API for
details. If you haven't implemented MediaSession in your app, see this
getting started with MediaSession tutorial.
Note that most apps will already include In-App Voice Scrolling and Selection
through Fire TV.
