that is a really good point, that’s probably a track remaining time and a playlist remaining time attribute.
Seems as though ROOMAX transport feature being available while playing radio stations is unique to ROOMAX. What I find to be nice is if I am listening to a radio station and want to listen to another station, all that is required id to select the next track button and the next station is listed. This seamless cycling through radio stations with one touch is nice and convenient. Actually would be nice to have this functionality across all remote platforms.
Next/Prev cycles through the Radio Stations. I quick checked for rooMax and rooWatch. But as I use the same code this should work for all my Roon Extensions the same way.
What exactly is your issue?

Thanks’ for the video.
Your issue is that it did not work with the Nuimo. I will put this error on my list and work on it if I’m nach after Jan. 6.
Thanks’ for helping me improving rooExtend.

You are quite welcome. IMHO this should be ths standard across all remote platforms when listening to preferred radio station. Hope is that ROON and other developers implement this methodology. Unless there’s some known limitations.
I’d like to set a button on the Xencelabs remote to start a specific radio on specific zone.
I’ve been told I could use RoonCommand and that I need to set up the groups you in the roop_api.ini file.
Unfortunatly, I didn’t find that file 
You can setup the default groups in the Settings of the rooExtend License Manager after initialization of RoonCommand.
Please take a look at the Quick Installation Guide in my download area.

Thank you for the answer. It works
I can assign the following command to the remote and it starts the designated artist on the group.
roon -a “Radiohead” -v 25 -G 0
I notice that the volume was changing only on the first gear.
It’s now working with the following command:
roon -a “Radiohead” -v g:25 -G 0

This is really a great enhancement for my Roon setup.
@DrCWO , but I have one problem. I am not able to get list of my playlists from my profile. These are normal roon playlists containing local music. Strangely I can see all other playlists. My setup is like this:
Qobuz playlists - all showing up
Tidal playlists - all showing up
Guest user playlists - all showing up
Shared playlists - all showing up
Stefan’s playlists - none showing
In total I have 30 playlists across all groups.
I also have rooWatch and there I can see all playlists including my own.
Logs do not show any error.
When I create a new playlist as user Stefan, it does not show up. Even if I create playlist under Guest list of playlists.
When I create a new playlist as Gest user, it works. Also when I create it under Stefan’s list.
So it seems the issue is somehow linked to the current user which is creating playlists.
Can you please help with this?
If your on the latest (v3.5.x) release this should work.
Single exception: Dynamic playlists. They are not (yet?) supported by the Roon API.

EDIT:
Please also try to reboot rooExtend.
Yes, I’m on 3.5.3 of rooExtend and rooMax 1.1.0. I did restart several times, also Roon server restart.
As I mentioned, these are not dynamic playlists, just normal ones
Yes, I can see all my playlists from ‘Stefan’ profile in roon. Also I can see them in rooWatch. Only rooMax seems to have problem.
I wonder about the profile.
I have three profiles in roon but all show the same playlists. Do you playlist change if you change the profile?
Best DrCWO
No, same as you. Regardless of chosen profile I can see all playlists.
But when I click on the link ‘playlists’, it shows Qobuz, Tidal, all users, shared playlists as icons where all playlists are located.
My output looks like this if I click on “Playlists”
So no folders. Have you created them by your own and if yes how?
EDIT: Oh yes, found it…
@DrCWO , I have an idea for rooMax improvement.
At the moment, when I want to see what is playing, I have to hit a button ‘trackInfo’. I’ve noticed that you put the data of the track in the middle of the screen, so it would be very simple to keep the button texts visible, while showing track info.
Then you could let users pick if they want to see track info always or not. So regardless of a screen I switch to on the remote, track info could keep showing, only the button texts would change depending on the screen I’m currently on. Users would not need to search for the ‘trackInfo’ button as it would always show this information.
Of course this will not work for users that prefer the vertical orientation of the remote. But even now if they want to see track info, they have to change the remote to landscape mode in order to read the text 
.
I also believed that but the QuickKeys firmware did not allow that. Either you see the labels for the buttons or something in the middle. This is how the device works 
It would be great if it would be supported to show both but it is not and I did not like to reverse engineer the firmware and build a new one supporting this.

Hello Dr O. Trying to pick my first of your products to buy. I think my DIY you helped be build is ideal and I will only need to buy the Quick Keys controller. I have everything else but the license.
Thank you again for all your help and patience. Randall
