Airfoil Volume Variable

This forum is where we've moved the discussions of the original Airfoil plugin that shipped with Indigo 5/6 (and is now open source). You may continue to ask questions in this subforum, just make sure that it's not about the new Airfoil Pro plugin that shipped with Indigo 7 (ask those questions below).

Airfoil Volume Variable

Post by Korey »

I'm looking to move over from iTunes built in Airplay volume settings to the Airfoil plugin to manage 6 zones of audio via Airport Expresses on my redesigned control pages.

I've found everything in the plugin that I need to accomplish this except the ability to display the current level of each Airfoil device from 0 to 100.

I assumed the plugin would have created a variable each device with this information that I could poll and display.

Is there an easy way to poll the Airfoil devices volume automatically and populate a variable? A snippet of script, a point in the right direction, or should this be going into the feature request bucket?

TIA.

I'll add it to the request list. This plugin is going to need a serious overhaul someday... ;)

Well get a move on then - never mind that other minor project you've got on at the moment ;-)
