Feature request: speaker discovery

Open dge8 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi all, submitting a feature request for discovery of Kef speakers on the LAN using mDNS. I may be able to put together a PoC for this soon myself.

Objective would be to specify a speaker by serial number or MAC address and have Avahi/mDNS resolve that into an IP address, or to produce a list of all speakers (with model, serials, etc.) currently on the LAN. There's quite a bit of info advertised in the mDNS packet itself.

This could form a separate submodule "discovery" or similar to minimise required Python modules for those that don't need this functionality.

Thanks and regards, Dan.

Hi! Were you able to make any progress on the PoC? Would love to help out!
