Hi,
Maybe i do but maybe for some reason my explanation of what i want to do just 
doesn’t cut it. My english must be extremely bad or my way of expressing things 
must be lacking or maybe i’m just stupid. I want to group zones together right 
enough, but i at the same time want to control the players independently so 
that when i leave one room i want to turn the player off but have the other 
player play. I don’t know how better to explain this other than what i try to 
do here. <http://here.no/> no i can’t explain it better, i don’t know what i do 
wrong.
