This integrated integration discovers Denon or Marantz Audio Video Receivers (AVR) on the network. Only a single AVR is supported at the moment. A media player entity is exposed to the Remote to control the AVR.
The receiver can be controlled by HTTP or Telnet. Using Telnet provides realtime updates for many values but certain receivers are limited to a single connection only (see limitations below).
Requirements
- To be able to power on the receiver from standby, the AVR Network Control setting must be set to: Always On
- This setting can be found under: Web Control, Network, Network Control
- The following TCP ports need to be accessible if the AVR is behind a routed network or in a VLAN: 23, 8080, and 60006
- When using DHCP: a static IP address reservation for the AVR is recommended.
- A fixed IP address can speed up reconnection after the Remote wakes up from standby.
- This is required when using manual setup with an IP address. Otherwise, the AVR won’t be reachable anymore if it gets a new IP address assigned.
- See general Network requirements for further information.
Limitations and known issues
- Device discovery is using the Simple Device Discovery Protocol (SSDP) to find a network receiver. Unfortunately this doesn’t work anymore for all models. If your receiver cannot be found when it is turned on, a manual setup with the IP address of the receiver is required. In this case, please either configure a static IP address in your receiver, or use a DHCP IP reservation in your router / DHCP server.
- Telnet might be limited to one client connection only, depending on AVR model.
- Older models only support a single connection. That means, if you have multiple Remotes that only one is able to use Telnet. If the AVR is already controlled by another system, for example your smart home controller, then the Remote can’t use Telnet anymore.
- We have successfully tested multiple Telnet connections on newer AVR-X models. Unfortunately there’s no official documentation, which models support multiple connections. One has to try out if it works or not.
- A cold start of the AVR can take up to a minute or longer until it is reachable on the network and can be controlled by this integration.
Please keep this in mind when using a smart power switch to completely power off the AVR. For example when using an activity to control the smart power switch, it requires a longer delay to send the AVR power-on command. - HEOS control is not supported.

If your model is not in the list then give it a try and let us know if it works.
Note: the supported models was taken from the Home Assistant Denon AVR Network Receivers integration, which uses the same internal communication library that is used in this integration.
