put snapcast app to f-droid

[christf]

and thus obsolete the advertisement ridden version from the play store.

It was discussed on IRC whether the app actually needs to be there, since there already is a module for fhem:

defmod SNAPCAST Snapcast <serverIP>

What about non fhem users?

I would like to hear from non-fhem users what fits their needs best.

I'm relying only on the app so far, since home assistant's component is not really working.

[christf]

ok. In any case, at the moment the app will not display the clients just yet, while I am already able to control volume and mute status of clients using the api with curl / fhem.

Also the api itself is a little clunky but I would support it if that meant a benefit on the reusability front for the app. Is it the best option though? If so, why?

[mrwsl]

I was wrong: home assistant seems to be working fine with the new UI. I can control snapcast completely now so I don't need an app.

@herrwusel, can you share your config for using the snapcast compnent? Mine looks nothing like that!

cheers,

@palitu I use this custom card: https://github.com/kalkih/mini-media-player

You need to set up everything else in the card configuration.

[palitu]

sweet - thanks. can you post or send me the config that you used to get that?

cheers,
