RoPieee Roon remote question

Audio Gear Talk RoPieee
1

I have a question: I mainly use Ropieee in conjunction with a Bluetooth transmitter for two earphones. Both earphones have remote control functions (Play/Pause, Next, Prev, Volume).
Two services are configured: Roon for earphone number one and Squeezelite for earphone number two. Both use the same Bluetooth transmitter. So far, however, I’ve only been able to assign the remote control for Roon to one service. Will this change in future?

Thanks.

Can you send me feedback?

Which message should I send feedback on?

Background: I use two different earphones because I listen to music through one earphone and audiobooks through the other; however, the audiobooks are played (via Squeezelite) in a zone that I’ve reserved exclusively for audiobooks. This is managed via my software:

Audiobook player and bookmarks for the audiobooks

Unfortunately, I can only set up one Roon Zone that can be controlled remotely via RoPieee.

Thanks.

I was expecting that it would only expose a single input device, but there actually 2.

But no, this is not supported. RoPieee only supports a single (remote control) input device.

And furthermore, (that will change in the future), the remote control functionality only works for Roon and not for other services.

Thanks

I probably didn’t explain everything properly:
The RoPieee Squezzelite service is used by Roon and is connected to a Roon audio zone. I set this up this way to separate audiobook playback from music playback when using my earphones, as I use different Roon audio zones for each.
What I need is a Roon remote control with RoPieee, that can also be configured via the service being used (Roon or Squezzelite) and not just via the Roon audio zone.

Thanks.

I did get that :wink:

Right now this is not supported, and also not on the radar. That can change of course, but right now I’ve got a loooong list with other stuff that I want to do.

Thanks

Thank you very much for your feedback.
I’ve created a workaround using my app. I can now control both Roon audio zones remotely via RoPieee from both services and with both pairs of headphones.
