MultiRoom Linked Playback

Overview — What is MultiRoom Linked Playback?

MultiRoom Linked Playback lets you group compatible devices on the same local network. After a group is linked, playback is intended to stay synchronized across the joined devices; confirm sync after linking because network conditions can affect the result.

Before You Start

• Connect the main device and the devices to be linked to the same discoverable local network; avoid guest networks or networks with AP Isolation enabled.
• Make sure the devices are online and have been upgraded to a system version that supports room linking.
• Select only devices shown as available or eligible in the current list. Status labels can vary by device and software version.

Quick Start

On the device

1. First choose one device as the main device and open the player interface.
2. Tap the "MultiRoom" icon at the top of the player.
3. On the MultiRoom page, confirm the page shows this device's information and the list of available devices on the local network.
4. Check the devices you want to join the MultiRoom group (multiple can be selected at once).
5. Tap "Link Devices".
6. Wait for the page to confirm the devices are linked successfully.
7. Play a song on the main device.
8. Confirm the checked devices play the song in sync.
9. On the player page you can check whether the MultiRoom icon is blue; if it is blue, the MultiRoom function is active.

On the phone (Kaiboer Home)

1. In Kaiboer Home, connect to the device you want as the main device, then open the bottom device page.
2. Enter the MultiRoom page; confirm the page shows this device's information and the list of available devices on the local network.
3. Check the devices you want to join the MultiRoom group (multiple can be selected at once).
4. Tap "Link Devices" and wait for the page to confirm the link is successful.
5. Play a song on the main device and confirm the checked devices play it in sync.

Room Link before linking: the primary device stays selected. Choose eligible devices from Available Devices, then tap Link Devices. This example shows the selection screen before a group is created.

Notes

• Before creating a link, make sure all devices are on the same local network and stay online; do not use guest networks or networks with AP Isolation enabled.
• Initiate the link from the chosen main device, and only play a song to check sync after the page confirms the link is successful.
• During linking, if any device disconnects, powers off, or switches to another network, linked playback may be affected; after restoring the network, re-enter the MultiRoom page to check device status.
• Select only devices shown as available or eligible in the current list. If the target device is not shown, refresh or re-search the device list and follow the current on-screen status labels.
• To add or remove devices, or to end the current link, return to the MultiRoom page and use the available group-control option shown on the current screen. Confirm that a removed device returns to the available list or that the linked status is no longer active.
• The phone (Kaiboer Home) and device-side operations follow the same logic, but page entries and layouts may differ — follow the current on-screen prompts.
