Devialet Chat

Is it avaliable, and if not are there any plans to release the API for Spark?


I am having a hard time comming to terms with the GUI of the app. It is responsive and stable, but navigating in Tidal is a pain in the a**. 

It should be released so that som wiz kid could come up with an app for controll like with the Squeezebox remotes or Kodi, 3 party app's far supersede the official app's.
One of my favourit remotes for Squeezebox enabled me to integrate the lyric's of the songs beeing played, I realy miss that feature in Spark, and Last FM/Wiki lookup of the artist beeing played.

Nothing yet planed I've tweeted about that to devialet and answer was nothing planned

Devialet's product model is similar to Apple; great design, simplicity, plug and play. There is just one reset button on dialog and each phantom, and no button on the remote.  Not much complaining about that.  But unfortunately, they suck at software. Just learn to live with bugs. Plug and play and freeze.

Can't see any reason for not opening up for 3'rd party software. BT streaming degrades the SQ so I am running Tidal HIFI on Dialog, but I am actualy considering switching over to Spotify in order to use Spotify Conect and get a better GUI.

Hi Everyone,

It works now!

I finally wrote a program that you can use to make API call to remote control your Devialet Phantom.
You can check it at https://github.com/VanVan/phantom-remote-control
I use it for myself, I have open sourced it, hope it will help you aswell.

Excellent.  Most useful.

Any way to get the current volume from Spark?

@mvrlondon Yes, the current volume is retrieved each time you ask to increase or decrease volume.
If you just want to read the number, you can call http://127.0.0.1:8090/?getVolume=1

You don't need to run Spark for it to work, communication is done directly with the devialet speakers
