Aesculus (Chris) is another forum user. You can learn more about his
Denon AVP Control plugin here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60114

My DenonSerial plugin is in testing phase and is available for
SqueezeCenter 7.3 with my test repository,
http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/slim7/repodata-test.xml . I've used it
for weeks at home, and it offers much the same feature set as Aesculus'
plugin (turn amp on/off with Squeezebox, multizone support), with the
caveat that you need to have a serial cable between the SqueezeCenter
server and amp or a telnet serial server like the $80 Sena LS100 (though
I have not fully tested the serial server capabilities, as I don't have
one myself). When I'm closer to officially releasing mine, I'll put
together a web page describing it; meanwhile, let me know if you have
any questions. All the features are listed on the per-player settings
pages. 

The main feature I have yet to add is a user interface (for
Classic/Boom/Transporter IR remotes and the Controller) to allow you to
select the input source for each zone (mine associates a given player
with a certain zone on a certain amp; while the Denon will let you feed
multiple zones with a single source, my target has been 1:1
zone<->player mappings, as I think that makes the most sense in *most*
Squeezebox setups. I intend to have the input selection feature allow
you to assign custom names to each input, using longer strings than
Denon allows for the onscreen display (my "09" receiver won't allow the
full word "Squeezebox", for instance).
