Lithe Audio releases a driver giving Fibaro users control over Lithe Audio multiroom ceiling speakers. Dubbed Lithe Audio Remote VD, it is compatible with Fibaro Home Center 2 with firmware 4.460 or greater, with a Home Center 3 update coming soon.
The driver allows users to store up to 10 different favourite radio stations on each VD. It also supports a simple change from currently playing audio source to AUX input through the press of a button. Users can group or ungroup speakers easily, with the possibility to set speakers to play stereo or through the left or right audio channel. Separate volume sliders control a single speaker or a group of speakers.
The system supports all standard audio commands, such as play, pause and stop. The driver has multilanguage support, and includes 27 languages. The VD can use the Home Center 2 selected language, or the user can select another available language and the VD automatically translates to the selected language. Icon Preview VD allows the easy setup of VD icons.
Currently the Fibaro driver does not support browsing of music services like the Lithe app does, but the company says it is currently working on and will roll the feature out in the next update of the driver.
Lithe Audio Remote VD is available now from the Fibaro Marketplace.
