This is an unofficial app to remote control network enabled Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers from macOS.
The menu bar app has basic support for play/pause and forward/backward. The volume level can be adjusted and works well with volume adjustments made directly on the loudspeakers, through the original B&O iOS app, Spotify and Deezer. Speakers are automatically discovered via Bonjour. TuneIn favorite radio stations are fetched from the device and can be changed via hotkeys.
Apple keyboards features volume-down and volume-up keys to control the volume of the local speakers. When the same physical keys function as F11 and F12 keys they can control the volume of the remote speakers via this application.
Local speakers | Remote speakers |
---|---|
volume-down | fn + volume-down |
volume-up | fn + volume-up |
