Support I2C Volume control for MAX9744 amplifier #1813

Open jamescadd opened 2 years ago

Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like The MAX9744 amplifier allows for digital volume control with I2C commands: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1752

Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried: Create a Media Player with more power than the board provided by Raspiaudio (this will do 20W compared with the 5W from Raspiaudio amp).

Note it does not have a DAC so this would support only the volume control functions of Media Player. It's for hooking up to another device playing stereo line level audio.

Additional context N/A
