StreamSongsFromYear

Streams a selection of songs from the requested year to the Echo to which you issue the command (i.e. the Echo is the audio sink for LMS).

Touchscreen buttons for prev/next/pause appear on Echos with displays when the screen is tapped. The skill's invocation name can be omitted for transport commands such as play/pause/stop/next/previous/startover while streaming. Audio will auto-pause the moment you say 'Alexa'.

When streaming starts, a pseudo-player with 'Alexa-XXXXX' in its name will appear in the LMS GUI — one for each currently-streaming Echo. Note that the time/track/index shown in LMS/iPeng will not match the stream due to aggressive buffering by the Echo. If you change anything from the GUI, simply say 'Alexa, resume' to re-align and clear the buffer. You cannot query now-playing data for an Echo or synchronize it, also due to buffering.

Invocation options (choose based on grammar-fit):

Alexa, [ open / start / launch ] MediaServer
Alexa, [ ask / tell ] MediaServer [ to / for ] …

{songs} can be any of [the] songs/tunes/tracks/numbers/something.
