By linking an external source to the available input options (Analog Input / Optical Input / HDMI / Phono / Coaxial / Line / Microphone / AES|EBU / Balanced) on the BluOS Player, you gain the capability to directly adjust the input's volume using the BluOS Controller app.

Playing External Input to Multiple Players
Upon establishing a connection between an External Input and the BluOS Player, the input source will exclusively serve as a source on the specific BluOS Player that is physically linked to this input.
To enable playback of this input across grouped players, you must designate the player with the connected input as the primary player within the Group. The first player selected during the Group creation process will assume the role of the primary player.
Refer to our Help Center article to set up standard Grouping in the BluOS Controller app.
Note: *Players using a BluOS MDC or upgrade kit cannot play connected inputs to grouped players.
