Hello,

I want to push this old topic cause it gets more and more hot due to
more and more amplifiers 
are TCP controlled and can be connected to a SB.

With the Denon AVP Control
(http:()//()code.google.com/p/denonavpcontrol/) is works in both
direktions 
to update each other via the LMS CLI "<MAC> mixer volume <value>. 

I have bought a Marantz NR1604 which works also fine with this plugin
(on Volume + Power + Zone)

Where is the Problem ?

If I use in the Duet the option volume control: "fixe volume to 100%" 
ALL the control is nailed to the wall at 100%.

All control via CLI impossible from now on. Al interface I know are
using this CLI interface.

I want to use it to be controlled by KNX via Gira Homeserver and via
iPeng and the SB Controller which I have distributed in my house.

If this is cut, it is very bad.

I read several discussions  here, also from Peter Watkins VolumeLock,
but all this doesn't help cause the CLI mixer volume is nailed to 100%.

The Duet controller doesn't show any volume slider if the "fixe volume
to 100%" is selected.

The requirement is:

Only fix the physical output volume (digital + analog) to 100% and let
the CLI free to work for all 
communications toward the connected amplifiers.

Andreas open allready a bug, cause this was allready working in 7.4
(http:( )   bugs.slimdevices.com/show    bug.cgi?id=18017)

But this is still not assigned.

I think we needs a general solution here cause it is standard today to
have good amplifiers TCP controlled (bidirectional)

Whatever controll interface you use, it should work over CLI, so we need
a virtual volume if the physical is fixed.

So please, experts where would be the best place to patch ???

I already dive in the code of 7.7.2 and saw the usage of 
$prefs->client($client)->get('volume')   and
$prefs->client($client)->set('volume', $vol);
        
Is that the right location to patch ?

Tobias

PS: (As this is my first post here: Thanks to all who spend so much
effort to make ths system so nice, I like it :)
