Description

It would be great if you could add support for volume control for HA player entity. This is currently not possible as you can only set the volume percentage as seen in the screenshot.

Right now its only possible if the HA integration offers separate volume up and down commands, which not every integreation of soundbars and AVR supports.

Additional context

No response

That would be a convenient feature. I haven't noticed that there are HA devices which only provide a set-volume command but no volume-up & -down commands. Those HA integations should be fixed ;-) I'll look into it, if it's easier to simulate up & down just in the R2 HA integration, or if it's better to add it globally for all integrations.
