| requested_volume = float(sys.argv[1]) if len(sys.argv) > 1 else None | |

| time.sleep(0.5) | |

| cast.set_volume(requested_volume) | |
| else: | |
| print cast.status.volume_level |
What units/range is the volume? 0 to 1 or 0 to 100?
My testing is saying 0.0 to 1.0
Looks like its a double between 0 to 1. I set it at 0.45, slept 1 second, then queried, it was set at 0.44999998807907104

Have you tried cast.wait() instead of sleeping?
