Title: Send command to turn upsampling on & off?
Post by: R32NJ on January 08, 2021, 06:07:24 pm

Is there a command line or WM command that can be sent to JRiver to turn upsampling on & off?  Same question for changing the upsampling engine from JRiver to SOX?

I currently have these functions programmed via Girder but they are not 100% reliable (mouse movements, clicking, pauses, etc.)

You can set up different zones and toggle among them with ctrl-T.

Thanks Jim.  Will my active playlist and current track playing carryover to each zone if I go this route?

Jim,

What about using MCWS?  I see how I can use that to turn the Equalizer on/off for example but I can't seem to get the syntax right to turn "Output Format" on/off.

LOADDSPPRESET via MCWS also looks like a good option for me but I can't figure out the syntax.  I saved a DSP config called "upsampling-on" and one called "upsampling-off".  What is the syntax for the MCWS command?  The example in the help file looks like this but I can't figure out how to enter the name of my DSP config.

Bear in mind that changing output format cannot be done on the fly, you have to restart playback for the change to take effect

I understand I have to stop and start playback. I have this in my macro now but I still want to use a command line of some sort instead of all the mouse moving and clicking that I am using now with inconsistent results.

It looks like the LOADDSPPRESET would be the easiest way but I just need to know where in the MCWS command line to put the name of my saved DSP preset.

The doc says to add a parameter Name which is the preset name to load

Where do I add that to the command line?

get the zone id via

http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Playback/Zones

e.g.

Code: [Select]

<Response Status="OK">
<Item Name="NumberZones">4</Item>
<Item Name="CurrentZoneID">0</Item>
<Item Name="CurrentZoneIndex">0</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneName0">Player</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneID0">0</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneGUID0">{BF9AB618-6956-4B4A-9263-660CE76D80D7}</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneDLNA0">0</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneName1">test</Item>
<Item Name="ZoneID1">10012</Item>
// more zones here
</Response>

assume target is the Player zone and DSP Preset is "My Upsampling Zone" then

http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Playback/LoadDSPPreset?Zone=0&ZoneType=ID&Name=My%20Upsampling%20Zone

will apply the preset

Excellent!  Thank you for the assistance.

P.S. - It might be good if the ""&Name" part of the command was added to the MCWS help file.

the Name param is in the doc but it's not set in the example link, it would be good if that bit of the api page were updated
