Group configuration using things file, dynamically adding and removing members from groups

Open cguedel opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

From the documentation, I cannot see how we can define groups in a heos.things file.

When I try to define a group, there seem to be multiple NullReferenceExceptions occuring due to groupMemberHash being null etc. Even if I specify all of those, I cannot set the groupMemberPidList, as this is stored in the thing properties (not accessible in the things file).

What I'd like to achieve is having a group for each speaker so that other speakers can join any other group when they want to also "listen" to the same audio that this speaker is playing.

Is this even possible? It seems like the group thing ID is generated from a member hash, so it changes each time a member is added/removed. Why not use the GID from the heos system for that?
