Hi everyone,
I'm trying to wrap my head around Kodi and Sendspin.
Here is the setup I am trying to implement:
- Video files are stored directly on the TV Box to avoid putting a heavy load on Home Assistant.
- The TV Box is connected to a screen via HDMI.
- An amplifier and speakers are located in another room and should receive the audio stream via Sendspin.
- A second amplifier and speakers are installed outdoors to play background music from Music Assistant and announcements/TTS from Home Assistant.
I have installed Sendspin for Kodi from git.
Currently, I can control Play/Pause for videos, and I've seen scripts for launching playlists, which I'll test later.
However, my main issue is with the audio routing. Kodi is visible in Home Assistant, and I can successfully send an audio stream from the Home Assistant server to Kodi. But I can't figure out how to capture the audio stream from a movie playing inside Kodi and route it to Squeezelite.
Has anyone done something similar or have an idea of how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
