Multiroom support / command line quit #135

Open Febus123 opened 8 years ago

Febus123 commented 8 years ago

Any way to add multiroom for chromecast audio? Also I would like to use the command line to fully control the player (not the keyboard). Would be highly appreciated. Thanks

@Febus123 how do you want to use the command line to control the player fully? I mean, do you want to attach to a session with only a control request (eg. pause). Or do you want to control it with some kind of script? For the script part, you can easily just send signals through stdin.

Command line controls are exactly what I'm looking for.

I'd personally like something along the lines of this: (where you could still define a device if needed)

castnow --address 192.168.1.x --command <volup,voldown,pause,stop,etc,quit>

It would also be great if you could pick a volume percentage like:

castnow --command vol50
