Hi, i have a question.
I have made two zones on my htpc, one called "hdmi audio" where audiopath is hdmi like the name says, and the second zone called "analog audio" where i use an 24bit 192khz studio card for analog output which i need in some rare situations. videooutput is on booth the same. on booth zones should always play same files.

my question is, is there any possibility to control with one comand always booth zones?

When i surf through my music collection in theatermodus for example and press on my remote "play" on a file, it should start playing in booth zones so that i have on booth audiopaths same output.  All my remote orders should control booth zones simultanly.


at moment i do it this way, i go to start screen from theatermodus, switch the zone i want, and then i control normal. but when i will change audio output i always have to stop, go back to start screen, change zone, and redo again playing whatever i want.

i hope i wrote that you guys will understand

Hmmm, is it possible to connect two zones with MCC10060 plus integer for the wished zone so that booth play same files?

There is a way to link zones so that the same audio plays in both. However, there are some limitations to it, which may not affect you.

Ok, sounds that link zones would be what i am searching for.

I will implement this order in my remote system and give it a try.

I tryed it but it didnt work. It shows same behaviour like the command to change the zone.

Or do i something wrong?

I play an file in zone "hdmi audio (zone 0)"  and then i send command link to "analog audio (zone 1)".  but it doesnt play same file in zone 1, the programm jumps to zone 1.

Ok my mistake, i put false command on my remote button on tablet.

Now it works perfect and booth zones play same file. No i can use normal hdmi and if needed analog output of studiocard for stereo and stereo downmix if multichannel playing.

Thanks for help.
