Can I start a standby player with the D&R Airlite?
Hi Bernd,
I've followed Benjamin Hartwich tutorial. In GPIO client > tab D&R mixer > Mapping, he uses the following to start player C when module 6 is activated:
I would like this to start Standby Player 1. Is this possible?
Something like STANDBY_PLAY_1

I am currently on holiday and return next week. But yes, you can!
I don’t have all commands in my mind, but the following should work:
STANDBY_PLAYPAUSE 1
For all control commands see the Appendix of the User Manual.

Great, this is working! Is there also a parameter for *all* standby players?
I've tried STANDBY_PLAYPAUSE ALL and STANDBY_PLAYPAUSE 1-99.
Thanks and enjoy your holiday!

No. That option doesn’t exist.
In my opinion it wouldn’t make sense to start all players in parallel.

Re: Can I start a standby player with the D&R Airlite?
Hi Bernd, indeed that wouldn't make sense. It was actually more an example. What I would like to do, is stop (or perhaps eject) all standby players upon closing the fader.
I'm trying to control standby players using the control buttons on the Airlite. I've had great succes with controlling the carts using the control buttons. They had a parameter {cartid} which helped controlling the leds on the Airlite based on which cart was running. Is there such a parameter for standby players?
Or another way to change the led based on the status of a standby player?
For instance, I'm using this:
CTRL_SWITCH.1 = 1 // when activating button 1
action: EXEC_COMMAND2
param.: ${autoplay}|Equals(0)|STANDBY_PLAYNOFADE 1 // start standby 1
action: EXEC_SEND_DRAIRLITE_SETLEDBLINK
param.: 1|2|0|0 // blink slowly green/white
What do those statusses mean? Is there such a thing as CTRL_SWITCH.1 = 2 for a second push to stop the player?
Thanks again!

Yes, there is such a Parameter. All are described in the Appendix of the User Manual.
As said, I am currently on holiday, but it is almost the same logic as for the cartwall.
