Volume steps too low with some Roon Ready devices #4

Hi there. First I would like to thank you for your very useful extension. This was a very important thing that made me become a Roon user.

I just bought a BW Formation Duo speakers. I just noticed that volume steps when using in RAAT mode are very precise… Too precise I would like to say: it can vary by digits after decimal point (ie 14.9, 15.0, 15.1…)

I use your extension to control my Roon endpoints, especially to control volume, playback etc… In harmony, when I press +/- volume, volume usually increases/decreases by 1 step which is fine

Here when I am using Harmony with the Formation Duo, when I press a button to increase/decrease the volume when streaming with RAAT, one press increases/decreases by one digit after the decimal point and not the whole number…

So I need to press 100x times volume up / down to make volume vary by one step. This is a real pain!!

This issue is only visible when my Formation Duo in RAAT mode but not in Airplay mode (I guess that in RAAT mode, volume steps are enabled to be very precise).

Is there a way to my extension controls the Roku ghost player to increase / decrease the volume by 100 steps at a time?

This is not an issue in deep harmony, nor harmony. The step size to use with a specific device is provided by Roon (perhaps originally from the device).

I will treat this as a feature request.

Hi. Sure thing I know there is no problem with deepharmony. In fact deepharmony works flawlessly with all my other devices. It is just that deepharmony becomes difficult to use with some devices. So if you can imagine a solution for this, that would be really terrific !!
