Audio Playback

Date Proposed:
Date Decided: Status: Proposed

Playback scenarios

1. Music on client, press play on client to start a performance.
   • Playback directly from the client device, e.g. connecting to bluetooth speakers.
   • Complexity: some kind of audio signal needs to be streamed to the hub.
   • Works with hardcoded timeline.
2. Music uploaded to the hub as e.g. mp3 file, press play on te hub to start a performance.
   • Allows for client-less operation (required play button or triggering mechanism on hub)
   • No streaming of audio data betweem client and hub, can be a positive for latency and bandwidth.
   • Similar to Lightoys FT Remote Pro.
3. External audio
