thanks will try...just starting here ; - )

thanks alot...

If anyone is interested, I added some features on this, click on the link for more information luckkyboy/multimedia-knob

I finally got to try it out and it works very well so far.
I'll add a link to it in my repo as I will use your's from now on 😄
But you should definitively enable issues for your repo.
Also, it took me a while to find out that you've swapped the pins which made the knob behave weirdly 😆

Cooool!
So happy you did that!
