+The `russound_rio` platform allows you to control Russound devices that make use of the RIO protocol.
+
+The platform automatically discovers all enabled zones and sources. Each zone is added as a media player device with the enabled sources available as inputs. Media information is supported if the selected source reports it.
+
+To add a device to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
+
+```yaml
+# Example configuration.yaml entry
+media_player:
+  - platform: russound_rio
+    host: 192.168.1.10
+    name: Russound
+```
+
+Configuration variables:
+
+- **host** (*Required*): The IP of the TCP gateway
+- **port** (*Optional*): The port of the TCP gateway (default: 9621)
+- **name** (*Required*): The name of the device
