Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AirPlay Bridge - can not play to Apple TV with HomePod Minis as default output

I understand now. I’ve never tried this but I would not be surprised
that for it to work, you’d need to address  the AppleTV using AirPlay 2
protocol.

Yes - I have done exactly the same before (and it worked), but I really do
not like the redundant players. It would be great if I could hide players
by e.g. starting the name with a dot.

I think change "should" to "would very much like to".
It may well be that AirPlay to Apple Tv to AirPlay Stereo requires a
feature of AirPlay 2.

To get around it (and have potentially redundant players in the LMS UI)
create an LMS Dynamic Group called HomePods and put the 2 HomePod
devices in it and then play to that new group (which is also a plugin
from Philippe).

Yes - to both (left and right).

But I tried to expose these two as they always show in the player list,
ant I only want to play to both as a stereo pair. Which I should be able
to do via the AppleTV and not exposing the speaker themselves.

Does it work if you play to the HomePod Minis direct from AirPlay Bridge
and not via the intermediate Apple TV?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AirPlay Bridge - can not play to Apple TV with HomePod Minis as default output

2021-12-28 Thread rkrug


The AppleTV works with the HomePod Minis as default speaker, I can
airplay to it as well. So this side works.

But trying to play from LMS AirPlay Bridge, no sound is coming through
the HomePod Minis. When I change to the TV speaker as default output, I
get sound. So it works with the TV speaker (connected via audio back
HDMI thingy) but not HomePod Minis which are connected via airplay. 

Any ideas? Or is it because the HomePod Minis use AirPlay 2 but the
AirPlay Bribge only supports AirPlay one (which would be strange)?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] AirPlay Bridge - can not play to Apple TV with HomePod Minis as default output

2021-12-26 Thread rkrug


Hi

I have a new AppleTV 4K and have set two HomePod Minis as the default
output.

Everything works, but AirPlay via the AirtPlay bridge does not. I have
paired it successfully, and when I set the default speakers to the TV
speaker, it works. But when I set the HomePod Minis as the default, it
does not work anymore. The AppleTV detects the airplay from the LMS
Server (It stops the ongoing playback), but there is no sound.

As I said, when using the TV speakers (via eHDMI I think it is called),
it works.

Any suggestion of settings in the AirPlay bridge, or is it a known
limitation?

Thanks a lot,

Rainer
