Distribute or sending audio stream to various renderers (networked speakers)

I believe JimH missed the point...
Though Kodi is more fun to use than JRiver,
I was hoping JRiver can do with what Airfoil does and I just
use one software package and not 2.

If this is the case, I will prefer to use Kodi than JRiver with Airfoil.

Now can JRiver accomplish what Airfoil and iTunes do to easily
distribute the audio to various renderers with clicking or choosing
those networked speaker systems?

JimH:
You can click on any renderer listed in the top section of Playing Now to change to that renderer.

You could also set up zones for each and switch that way.  Ctrl-T toggles among zones.

The wiki explains this.

currter:
I believe I did this and could only send audio to 1 renderer.

Can I send the audio to multiple renderers easily?

The thing with JRiver is there are so many options and features that
the software seems overwhelming. It does many things and for me
I kind of get lost and may click on something and it is the wrong thing
then I have to remember to backtrack to undo.

I would like something more focused maybe like selection boxes
to select many renderers.

I will try JRiver again as you suggested on both platforms.

Thank you.

currter:
Okay, I managed to be able to access audio via DLNA on a server
and I managed to send audio or play it on one renderer in the Playing Now
section. 

How can I play that audio on multiple renderers in the Playing Now section?

Is there a  way to put 2 or more Playing Now renderers listed in a directory
or folder and then the audio can be played on those networked devices?

Is this where zones come in?

Airfoil and iTunes are easier to use because you just click boxes of
the devices you want audio to be played to or sent to.
