play_url for HomePods and other devices #2364
Comments
It does not support that part of the AirPlay protocol (only Apple TV does). Use |
okay -that seems to work - however, this is a blocking call? And the Homepod vanishes from the list of airplay devices in iOS? |
And shairplay refuses streaming:
|
Yes, it uses RTP streaming to stream audio to the device. Basically is streams audio from the remote source (internet radio in your case), converts it into raw PCM frames and forwards to the device. I.e. this is normal AirPlay audio streaming. I have not managed to figure out how to use built in apps (like Music), so no support for that. The API used on Apple TVs to just stream directly from a URL does not exist on HomePod. Only one can stream via AirPlay so I assume that is expected. |
What feature would you like?
I would like to be able to play from a internet radio stream url (eg. http://streams.80s80s.de/darkwave/mp3-192)
Describe the solution you'd like
Basically, make play_url available for Homepods (at least) - currently it is listed "Unavailable". I have a shairplay-server as well, might be great, if that will work, too.
atvremote --id XXXXXXXXX play_url=http://streams.80s80s.de/darkwave/mp3-192
