I it possible to enable a Bluesound speaker in Music menu?
* Send command card has a typo 'Send Commanc'
* Unmute is still not working. I hear a mili second of sound but then its muted again. I also see it in the remote app of the speaker that 'Muted' icon is gone for a sec but is shown directly after that. What command do you sent the API to un-mute? Changing the volume will un-mute. That works.
* Change service (and then play) isn't doing anything for all services. I guess if i want to play TuneIn or Tidal, i'll be required to use presets. Or the change service should be extended in being to select a playlist or something.
* Change Input to Radio pariodise & and sent the play command works.
* Change input to Spotify and sent play doesn't do anything
Integration with Homey Music or Alexa (via Homey) would be nice. I'm happy with the App! I'll do my donation. Great work. Thanks.
When I set it on the device page, it works correctly. The slider is working perfectly.
But when I set the volume through flows, if i set it to 1% its already -22db. Very loud! And I can't get lower than 1%.
- I'll fix the type-o
- I'll have a look at the mute/unmute. I should be able to fix that.
- I created the card to change the service based on the description of the API, I'm not sure what it should do as well since I dont own the Bluesound myself. If using presets does work for you should indeed go for that.
- I can image you need to somehow first select a Spotify playlist before something can be played using the Spotify input. Which actions do you take when you manually start playing Spotify over your Bluesound device?
Integration with Alexa is out of my hands. It depends on two thing, support from Amazon for smart speaker devices, and support from Athom for smart speaker devices within the Homey skill for Alexa. Not sure if and when this will become available but my app should be ready for it since the devices are added using the speaker capability.As mentioned above, I dont see support for Homey music any time soon as I dont own the device myself and I wont be able to test the possibilities. The code needed is to complex to just code it based on documentation.

Other question;
I bought an extra Bluesound speaker. So I have two now (yay). Could you build the grouping feature?
example:
http://192.168.1.38:11000/AddSlave?slave=192.168.1.41&group=Study Player (Study Player is the group name)
http://192.168.1.38:11000/RemoveSlave?slave=192.168.1.41
Since I have two Bluesound devices added in Homey, you might be able to retrieve the IP addresses from the added device.
- "Add slave" with two text fields, one for IP and one for group name
- "Remove slave" with one text field for the IP
There will be no error handling in case you entered a wrong IP or group name since I dont know how to check for existing Bluesound devices and groupnames. If this is OK, it wont be to hard to implement. Let me know.Latest version - 2018-04-03 -- v1.2.0

My Pulse Flex is shown offline, but I can reach it through the browser.
How often does it checks whether its online again?
The "is not playing" in the and column is not working properly. If music is paused and I run a flow. It executes the flow while it should stop at 'is not playing'.
The XML when its playing (using http://192.168.178.192:11000/Status)
The XML when its paused:
This is my flow, and while the music is playing, it returns TRUE, while i expect false.
