I’ve seen a couple of posts about it but nothing definitive. I’d love to build a ropieee setup with rpi, a screen and hifi berry for a couple speakers in the kitchen. Anyone have this working? I know there are extensions for other devices but I want a single solution. I understand there is a hifi berry that will accept a rotary encoder then it’s just getting it to work in ropieee.
After thinking about this I believe the hifi berry rotary encoder would only control the volume of the connected speakers and would not control Roons volume through ropieee. I think. So I would need to control the rpis volume if that affects Roon. I assume that’s why plugins exist for third party volume devices.
I second this, It would be great for a rotary encoder to work with ropieee.
Currently looking into a rotary encoder for the rpi or for an esp32 device. With esp32 you should be able to access the roon api for volume control with commands from the encoder. I’ve started playing around with it but i’m very new to coding so it will be some time before I get it going. If anyone has experience with extensions id love some help.
Taking notes from these:
