Mute volume on incoming call

This thread is a feature request from 2012, preserved from the original Roomie Remote forum. It reflects what users were asking for at the time — many requests from this era have since shipped in Roomie Remote X. See current compatibility for today's device support.

In short

I would love to see an option to mute the volume if a phone call comes in. — A member replied: “Agreed, the app I used before, HippoVNC, has that ability, but it pauses instead of mutes. Maybe an option?”

I would love to see an option to mute the volume if a phone call comes in. It is annoying when a phone call comes in and you have to answer the call and then switch back to the app to mute the volume.

Agreed,

the app I used before, HippoVNC, has that ability, but it pauses instead of mutes.

Maybe an option?

Thanks for adding this feature! However, it only seems usable if what you are watching is able to be paused. If i am watching live TV the pause command doesn't do anything useful. Maybe there could be an option to choose what commands you want executed when an incoming call is recieved.
