Well, I have played with the zone-specific volume for some days, and it works. More than that, it actually works like it should!   Which is pretty impressive for such a  new function. But so far I have had to do something that slows the process down, since I only use IR remotes for this: Use Girder to change zone, wait for the window title to change and then change the volume. My son's a lot more impatient, so he presses a bunch of times when it does not react at once. So he either turns it all the way down or all the way up. If you have seen my website you know that he has a speaker with two 12" subs, and this on full blast is not exactly what my wife thinks of as healthy at high volumes...  

So what about send messages or mjextman commands for this? Is it near, is it far, is it never? I'd really appreciate an answer, maestros!

As usual: Thanks in advance!

Glad to hear it's (mostly) working

About the volume, you can send zone specific commands using:

MCC_VOLUME_UP,                           // [int nDeltaPercent]
MCC_VOLUME_DOWN,                     // [int nDeltaPercent]
MCC_VOLUME_SET,                         // [int nPercent]

The documentation explains how to pack the zone identifier into the "Param" value, but I think you're doing it already with other commands so I won't bore you with more info.

Thanks!

Hey, Matt! I must admit that I've been using pre-made commands (who did those for each build half a year back?) so I have no idea what // [int nDeltaPercent] means or where it should be put. Could you please enlighten me?
