[Kazoo Beta Bug] Multiroom - Circular Songcast crash

$
0
0
1 Put radio on in Living Room
2 Go to multiroom
3 In the Living Room group, tick Kitchen -> Kitchen plays Living Room
4 In the Living Room group, tick Hall -> Hall plays Living Room
5 In the Kitchen group, tick Living Room -> Kazoo crashes and subsequently crashes immediately on attempted restart. Resolution is to go into Kinsky and unpick the circular Songcast configuration.

If instead the Living Room group only has Hall ticked, and not Kitchen as well (so skip step 3), then step 5 doesn't result in a crash, but results in no music and both Hall and Kitchen being set to the Songcast source, and the config can be changed back to something valid in Kazoo.

I haven't thought about whether this works for circular multiroom groups with more than 2 DSs, but if the user tries to create a 2 DS circular group, how's this for the behaviour (just for illustration):

1 Put radio 3 on in Living Room
2 Put radio 4 on in Kitchen
3 Go to multiroom
4 In the Living Room group, tick Kitchen -> Kitchen plays Living Room
5 In the Kitchen group, tick Living Room -> Kazoo detects that this would be a circular config so doesn't do it. Some options:

a) pop up an 'illegal move' message and do nothing.
b) interpret this request as the user wanting the Living Room and Kitchen to play what the Kitchen was playing before it was grouped into the Living Room. Kitchen reverts from Songcast to previous source and starts playing, Living Room switches to Songcast from Kitchen and starts playing.
