Hello, I have some issues with the MQTT Extension.
I use it to control the volume of multiple zones and global playback.
The playback control works everytime, but the volume control randomly stops working, only after a restart of the extension it works again.

In the logs I found this:
received mqtt packet: topic=roon/FullHouse/outputs/Cuisine/volume/set, message=20
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** find output id for zone=FullHouse, output=Cuisine
*** output Cuisine not found in zone FullHouse!
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
received mqtt packet: topic=roon/FullHouse/outputs/Salon/volume/set, message=mute
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** find output id for zone=FullHouse, output=Salon
*** output Salon not found in zone FullHouse!
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
received mqtt packet: topic=roon/FullHouse/outputs/Salon/volume/set, message=mute
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse', 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** find output id for zone=FullHouse, output=Salon
*** output Salon not found in zone FullHouse!

After a restart of the extension it looks like that:
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** zoneevent=zones_seek_changed
received mqtt packet: topic=roon/FullHouse/outputs/Cuisine/volume/set, message=20
*** we know of zones: [ 'FullHouse + 2' ]
*** find output id for zone=FullHouse + 2, output=Cuisine
-> REQUEST 9 com.roonlabs.transport:2/change_volume {"output_id":"170162dfe691ccc85358d8a350ecd3046da6","how":"absolute","value":20}

What I did:

• Extension reinstalled on the same Linux virtual machine
• Extension installed in a new docker extension manager
• roon server reinstalled without restoring an old backup
• reinstalled all RoPieee Endpoints
• Endpoints and Extension Manager migrated in a separate Subnet

Sometimes it works for days without any issue, sometimes it stops multiple times a day.

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks for this very handy extension--very cool!

When I monitor all messages being passed through the broker (with two zones playing in this example, but same result with one zone), I only see roon/[zonename]/queue_time_remaining and roon/[zonename]/seek_position. You refer to the now_playing and other topics, so I wasn't sure if I was missing something here.

Thanks again!

If volume ist set to a value outside min/max the value is accepted.

It should be adjusted to be between min and max. I'm not sure if this is really a problem of the extension or should better be handled in the core.

Is it possible to group zones together using mqtt? if not is this something that could be implented?

Hi!

I am not 100% sure I understood the documentation correctly, but is it currently not possible to control shuffle/repeat for the current playlist?

I can read the setting from roon//settings/* but there seems to be no way to set them...

Modifing zones/handing off audio to other zones is currently also not supported?

Both options seem to be present in the API in general...

The node standard base Image is fairly large. I‘m testing a smaller one at the Moment and will deliver a PR shortly.

Setting a volume doesn't unmute a muted zone. So it would be helpful to have control via mqtt also, or at least unmute a muted device by setting the volume.
At least for playing live radio stations via roon mute instead of pause makes sense IMO.

Dear all,

i strugle to get this docker running on my raspberry pi 4, which I use for home automation extensions.

If I specify platfor command with linux/arm/v7 I get following issue:

root@loxberry:/opt/roonmqtt# docker run -v /opt/roonmqtt/:/usr/src/app/config/ --platform linux/arm/v7 fjgalesloot/roon-extension-mqtt

docker: Error response from daemon: image with reference fjgalesloot/roon-extension-mqtt was found but does not match the specified platform: wanted linux/arm/v7, actual: linux/amd64.
See 'docker run --help'.

Is there any way to get this running on raspberry?
Thank you so much for your work!
Rest regargs, NiDr

I wanted to switch my service to another pi , now how can I stop the service?there is no stop command within the systemd file...
