Crestron Linn Lite Driver
The Crestron drivers do not look for Linn DS/DSM players by their names but for their capabilities. That is, searches for UPnP services of the Linn DS/DSM products and adjusts accordingly. This allows new firmware features and new product support WITHOUT the need for any Crestron driver updates. This driver has the capability of:
- Supports the firmware release that will add support for the ‘Gateway Server’ component, Gateway API, to the latest designed of products Linn DSMs.
- Series4 Processor support
- This works with other non-Crestron control points. That is, and changes by other control devices are shown in the Crestron panels
- Control up to 20 DS/rooms with up to 8 Crestron control points setup (One Kustom DSM is classed as up to 12 DS with up to 8 Room + up to 4 Streamers)
Features:
- Automatic discovery of a Gateway API instance within the local network and setup of a WebSockets connection.
- Room selection - each CCP has an actively selected room within the house that can be changed via the CCP itself.
- Grouping - Uses the current grouping of rooms set via Kazoo/LinnApp.
- This will be reflected in the room selection menu and automatically update whenever a change in grouping occurs.
- The standby states and volumes of listening rooms can be set individually
- For each room in the house the user has control over the following DS functionalities:
- Standby control - each room can be toggled between standby states
- Volume control - step up/down, set absolute, mute toggle
- Toggle shuffle and repeat states for appropriate sources
- Transport control over any active playlist - play, pause, play/pause toggle, skip previous, skip next
- Source selection - capable of selecting any visible external source and Spotify connect
- Metadata - retrieves basic metadata for currently playing item including artwork
- PIN selection - as on the current physical Linn DS units , 6 customizable pins can be setup using a Linn control point (Kazoo/LinnApp) to provide easy access to a favourite radio station, playlist, or external source
- Pin metadata - the name and associated artwork for each pin can also be accessed via the module and displayed on a Crestron control point interface
- Standby states of all rooms within the house can be changed quickly and easily from a room selection menu.
- Demostration touchscreen
- More details of Linn-Lite Crestron driver will be available shortly....
