Hidden new iTunes feature: multiple speaker streaming

I'm experiencing the same problem as #14 & #15. Does someone know if it's possible to monitor the iTunes volume control while using the "Multiple Speaker" feature?

Quicktime will not read my DVD! How do you get it to your iTunes Library?

Oh yeah, and the firmware update last week seems to have done wonders for me. Very little to no skipping on the Express. Thank goodness, I was getting ready to throw the thing out the window.

This is absolutely BRILLIANT! I have been waiting for this for such a long time and it rocks. Seems to be perfectly synched between my 3 AE units and my Mac. A total house of music. I am the happiest person ever.

The multiple speakers function works perfectly for me, and sounds great coming from the computer and my stereo. It's like super-duper surround sound!

Can't adjust the volume of the remote speaker, though. Not a big deal, as my stereo has a remote control.

Is the audio synced? Is it phase-synced? This is the biggest benefit on the sonos zoneplayer and would be a shame if the airports did not output perfectly in-sync audio.

I agree about the volume control. You really ought to be able to adjust the volumes on each output individually and globally relative to the individual volumes...

Can anyone explain exactly how i can now stream music to my stereo while contemporaneously listening to music on my laptop? I only have one base station, so the multiple stream function is useless to me unless I can also listen on my laptop.

I don't have an Airport Express, but can see in the preferences that there is an option to ignore the iPod volume for Airport Express "speakers". Presumably you just need to uncheck that setting in order to have the iTunes volume affect the remote speakers

I've had nothing but problems with 6.0.2...it hangs my powermac dual 2.3 everytime i try to transfer content to my ipod :(

This is Keynote material!! The only thing I don't like is that I can adjust the volume while its set to multiple spkrs.
