This thread is a feature request from 2013, 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.
Is the RS-232 control one way or bi directional? Does it provide volume feedback? — A member replied: “I provided the RS-232 device information to Roomie. The Roomie app doesn't know how to parse the zone status command format to extract the zone volume information. It has support for only specific volume formats.”
Is the RS-232 control one way or bi directional? Does it provide volume feedback?
I provided the RS-232 device information to Roomie.
The Roomie app doesn't know how to parse the zone status command format to extract the zone volume information. It has support for only specific volume formats.
Likewise, it doesn't parse other status information, so the interface is unidirectional.
I am hoping that Roomie some day opens up the API to allow users to specify to the Roomie app how to extract information like volume, source, mute status from custom device status queries.
Today's Roomie controls 400,000+ devices.
Roomie Remote X brings TVs, receivers, streamers, lights, and whole-home audio into one app on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.
