Accessing Zone variables

Postby scalt on Tue Jan 31, 2006 1:48 am

I've been looking around on the forum and on the Event and Variable List and I can't seem to find any detailed information on how the zones are set-up.

I'd like to be able to change a zone's "status" (eg zone>1>status) and also be able to play/stop a zone without having to use the "zone set" command.

I've been trying to use XScript and I'm even thinking of writting a plug-in, but I'd like to know if there's any way to do this?

Basicly, is there a way to access the internals of the zone system to be able to do this? I was even thinking of using the "send message" command to play/stop winamp, but I don't know how I could choose which instance of Winamp to send the message too.

I dont think what you want is available yet. The other related feature is to have control of each zones volume on the same screen, again without needing zone set.

Maybe time for another feature request? :wink:
