page Yamaha Network Receivers Instructions how to integrate Yamaha Network Receivers into Home Assistant. 2016-03-26 0:58 -0700 true false true true yamaha.png Media Player 0.16

The yamaha platform allows you to control Yamaha Network Receivers from Home Assistant.

Supported devices:

  • HTR-4065
  • RX-V473
  • RX-V573
  • RX-V673
  • RX-V773
  • And more

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

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  platform: yamaha
  host: 192.168.1.100
  name: 'Basement Receiver'

Configuration variables:

  • name (Optional): Name of the device
  • host (Optional): IP address or hostname of the device

A few notes:

  • Not specifying the host variable will result in automatically searching your network for Yamaha Receivers. It will add a media player device for each one.
  • In some cases, autodiscovery fails due to a known bug in the receiver's firmware. It is possible to manually specify the reveiver's IP address or via it's hostname (if it is discoverably by your DNS) then.
  • Please note: If adding the IP address or hostname manually, you must enable network standby on your receiver, or else startup of Home Assistant will hang if you have your receiver switched off.
  • Currently the only controls that are available is Power On/Off, Mute, and Volume control. Other functions such as source select are in progress of being developed.
