Only for all of the People who also need to control their Denon / Marantz AV-Receiver via Network:
I found yesterday in another (german) Forum an Eventghost Plugin which is working with the telnet protocol to control the AV-receiver:
On the Denon Website their are documentation for all receivers with the commands inside.
(For Marantz has no documentation about this, but you can also use the denon docs, The Receivers have the same firmware. For example a Marantz SR7008 is a pimped Denon x4000)
Eventghost switches the receiver on at Systemstart and switches to the correct Input.
(The Receiver has to be switched on before Kodi starts in my Case. If this is not the case, Kodi switch to a wrong screen resolution.)
Also the receiver is switched off on system shutdown and of course I can control the Volume with my remote
I wrote this here, that anybody who is searching for something similar has a reference.
To be Complete here is the Code from the plugin (it references the GPL, so I think it is ok to post it here):
(If you don't want to register to the other Forum to download the plugin you can Copy & Paste the Code here into a "
" File for Eventghost and copy this file into the plugin Directory of Eventghost)
