Now THAT's an interesting log file. It's the first time I've seen one where two different players were active at the same time, which makes it a little more difficult to sort things out but also reassures me that the plugin can successfully juggle multiple players at once. Everything looks much better with the volume increment set at +/-5. As I said previously, you should experiment with different settings and find one that seems to work best for you with the SqueezeCtrl app. However, I would not recommend going lower than 3 in your multi-zone setup. One thing I noticed is that you are using the plugin option in your main zone to "sync on track changes", which made me think about what happens when the AVR is muted while a track change takes place with the "sync on track changes" option in effect. I'm going to have to do some testing with that scenario and possibly update the logic for it. In the meantime, and not only for the purposes of this testing, I suggest that you turn that option off in the plugin menu. With all the recent changes to ensure that the player and AVR get in sync at "power on" and stay in sync until "power off", this option should only be needed if you are in the habit of using the AVR remote (or front panel controls) to make volume changes outside the realm of the Squeezebox environment. Otherwise, it just adds unnecessary network and cpu overhead. With regard to your experience using the hardware mute, the preferred method of initiating it is by simultaneously pressing both volume buttons and I can see from the log that your phone is capable of handling that well. The interval between presses, in that scenario, seems to be under 0.1 second. Pressing the buttons one after the other can be a crapshoot and is only needed when a phone either doesn't have separate volume buttons (rocker switch) or the phone firmware interferes with the client app getting both button press events. So, if the hardware mute function is useful to you, just get in the habit of pressing both buttons simultaneously and you should be fine. But thanks for taking the time to test the other scenarios. I appreciate it. Thanks and regards.
