How to setup .Airplay Set & .Playlist Set

This discussion is 14 years old. It predates today's Roomie Remote X, and the app names, menus, features, pricing, and device details below have changed substantially since 2012. Treat it as historical reference — see Support and current compatibility for how things work today.

In short

We are hoping in a future release to make those commands take names like "Living Room Apple TV" for Airplay or a Playlis — A member replied: “So how do these commands work? Are they inactive now? When will the next release be available?”

We are hoping in a future release to make those commands take names like "Living Room Apple TV" for Airplay or a Playlist name, but that's not how it works right now. Hang tight and we'll see what we can do. Right now Airplay and Playlist selection must be performed from the Virtual Remote.

So how do these commands work? Are they inactive now? When will the next release be available?

Actually, I just tried this this morning. I created a Play iTunes action for both my Living Room and Bedroom. For the Living Room action, I set the ".Airplay Set" parameter1 to "Apple TV". For the Bedroom action, I set the ".Airplay Set" parameter 1 to "Computer". And this works perfectly! So cool! =:)
