Re: [slim] Control AV Amp over LAN...

2012-06-22 Thread jrgarrett

To elaborate further (this assumes your server is running on windows ie.
can use EventGhost))

I use the Zoom Player plugin to listen on:
Host: localhost
Port: 9090 
to get iPeng/LMS web interface inputs

Then I take the payloads received to trigger actions to my AV equipment

example - Then EventGhost: Python Command eg.event.payload
==[u'00%3A04%3A20%3A00%3A00%3Aa1 prefset server power 1'] - if
successful execute macro to turn on amp

I believe you could then send HTTP commands as detailed in this post
(have not used this but it sounds like what you are looking for)
http://www.eventghost.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2t=3226

I use this system to control my amp power, input selection and volume
levels and it works very well. The only difference being i am using
serial commands to control my equipment rather than HTTP.

Did anyone make any progress on this?

I did a bit of tracing on my yamaha and looks like simple HTTP post
requests with XML request/response bodies. Wasn't too hard to get
together some curl scripts to turn it on, set the input and change
volume. I'd like a plugin that could do this but rather not write my
own.

Take a look at EventGhost. I use it to controlled my amp via RS232. It
is possible that there is a plugin available that could be used for
control over LAN (have not looked for this specifically but the software
is very versitile).

If you install 'Firebug' (http://getfirebug.com/) in Firefox, you can
watch the requests going from the browser to the receiver's web
interface, and learn how they work. The next step is to configure LMS
to issue such requests automatically, which I believe should be doable.

[slim] Control AV Amp over LAN...

2011-11-23 Thread l...@claydons.org

I have tried to find a solution to quite a simple problem that I guess
many people have?
I use a Yamaha av amp which has connection to my LAN and has its own
web interface to control the unit remotely. The amps web interface can
change the input and power the unit up and down remotely over the
network.
What I am trying to find is an addin that would allow me to automate
the amps power on and off as the squeezebox is switched on/ off.
It would also be useful if the addin would allow selection of the
slimserver input when the slim server is powered on.

Can anyone help? Surely this would be a useful app to many?

I would find that quite useful too. I would be especially interested in
something that allows the volume to control the amp/receiver instead of
the Squeezebox player.

I have a Pioneer receiver and it, too, has a web interface where you
can control power, input, volume, etc.
