Scripting questions to avoid lots more feature requests.

[zimmer62]

I see there is a SendCommand script call which would let me send stuff that my receiver supports, but your plug-in doesn't support. Like zone2 and zone3 balance.

However I was wondering if I could read the last response as well, so if I were to send a command like "BL3QSTN" I could get the current value of the the zone 3 balance.

Maybe you could introduce a function instead of a sub that would return the response of a sent command...

like

Public Function SendQSTNCommand(ByRef recnum As Short, ByVal command 
As String) As String 

or better yet overload that with a timeout as well.

Public Function SendQSTNCommand(ByRef recnum As Short, ByVal command 
As String, byVal timeout as integer) As String 

That would let me do anything my receiver is capable without having to bug you to add features to the plugin. Please as Onkyo introduces new commands for new models, those people could access the new features as well.

Thanks.
