Sean, Colin, Thanks for the help. This is exactly what I was looking for. I think at the moment I am looking to stay an "integrator" of pulse functionality, not a developer of it. I am always happy to share back my findings/work/code (hacky many times) though. You guys are doing an awesome job with this product though. I have 3 zones (of 5) currently setup for whole home audio and pulse has been an absolutely reliable rock. Good work!
