page Denon Network Receivers Instructions how to integrate Denon Network Receivers into Home Assistant. 2015-09-08 09:00 true false true true denon.png Media Player Local Polling 0.7.2

The denon platform allows you to control a Denon Network Receivers from Home Assistant.

Supported devices:

  • Denon DRA-N5
  • Denon RCD-N8 (untested)
  • Denon RCD-N9 (partial support)
  • Denon AVR receivers with integrated Network support (partial support)
  • Denon AVR-X4100W (via denonavr platform)
  • Denon AVR receivers (via denonavr platform (untested))
  • Marantz M-RC610 (via denonavr platform)
  • Marantz receivers (experimental via denonavr platform)
If you have something else using the IP controller for your Denon AVR 3808CI, such as your URC controller, it will not work! There is either a bug or security issue with some models where only one device could be controlling the IP functionality.

To add a Denon Network Receiver to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

Telnet platform

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  - platform: denon
    host: IP_ADDRESS

Configuration variables:

  • host (Required): IP address of the device. Example: 192.168.1.32
  • name (Optional): Name of the device.

A few notes for platform: denon

  • The receiver handles only one telnet connection and refuses others.
  • Be careful with the volume. 100% or even 50% is very loud.
  • To be able to wake up the receiver, activate the "remote" setting in the receiver's settings.
  • Play and pause are supported, toggling is not possible.
  • Seeking cannot be implemented as the UI sends absolute positions. Only seeking via simulated button presses is possible.

denonavr platform

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  - platform: denonavr
    host: IP_ADDRESS

Configuration variables:

  • host (Optional): IP address of the device. Example: 192.168.1.32. If not set, auto discovery is used.
  • name (Optional): Name of the device. If not set, friendlyName of receiver is used.

A few notes for platform: denonavr

  • Additional option the control Denon AVR receivers with a builtin web server is using the HTTP interface with denonavr platform.
  • denonavr platform supports some additional functionalities like album covers, custom input source names and auto discovery.
  • Marantz receivers seem to a have quite simliar interface. Thus if you own one, give it a try.
