There is an updated version of the xAP plugin about to surface from
Pierre (Xlobby France) that supports display of BSC level values,  xAP
v1.3 and also neat slider controls for level devices that are
synchronised realtime with the device state.  The latter is a really
nice feature.   It also has an an  improved configuration interface.

You can use xAP to link with XLobby - but in a perhaps unexpected turn
I'm going to recommend the HomeSeer plugin for XLobby which connects via
the HomeSeer speaker API which is very good.

My niggle with XLobby is that it has always tended to add features
rather than fix existing issues - and with the free version having been
abandoned in this state it's left a difficult situation - but then it
was free !    Calrad ownership didn't seem to help here either but maybe
commercial income and installer pressure will engender stability.
