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

Telnet interface

# 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 interface

# 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
  • Still be careful with the volume. 100% in an action movie will tear down your walls.
