Hello rjblake,

Andyyyy - glad you found it - was going to suggest using the standard script as opposed to mine. Can't see any red text, so not sure what was different?

Plugin works great!

I have a Marantz SR5009. When I enable it via the amin zone selction from 'Off' to 'Tuner', both the main zone and zone will enabled and switch to tuner.
Is this a bug?

And is it possible to disable zone2?

EDIT: I rewrote the plugin only for Zone 1

After the latest beta update and the changes they made in python the Denon plugin doesn't work anymore.
Does someone have a solution to make the plugin working again?

Ah - damn the different types of "''s ...and being colourblind! I've corrected in my earlier post in case anyone else just does a copy/paste.

Have not updated my Domoticz for a few weeks. Will look into it. I know there was/is a change planned to the Python plugin and how it is being handled. This is documented here https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... 95#p134695. Also, there was an issue with Python not starting with one of the recent beta versions, so this may be related and fixed in a later beta version.

After trying to find the reason why Domoticz is crashing randomly, I found the reason in the denon plugin.
When it's activated, domoticz is crashing randomly a few times a day. I activated the log and found something, but I don't know what it means.

Maybe someone of you can help me.
Domoticz Version: 3.7976
Python version '3.4.2'
plugin key="Denon4306" version="2.5.4"

Here are the last enries in the log:

Did you get a solution? I have the same problem....

Whats the correct way of loading this plugin? Can't quite workout on after reading through this thread. I have tried various methods all resulting with many errors.

Cheers

@simon_rb, I use the attached plugin with Domoticz v3.8153 stable.
Just remove _.txt from the filename, I couldn't upload it otherwise.

plugin.py_.txt

Cheers G3rard.. Come to my rescue again!

Working now

[madiep]

I'm kinda new to this all, but I have a set-up that's working for me now. Last thing I wanted to add is this plugin, which is my first plugin. Can't seem to get it work though.

I'm running:
- Pi Zero +W
- Raspbian Stretch
- Python v3.5.3-1
- Domoticz V3.8153

I created a folder denon in the plugins folder, then I created a file called plugin.py with nano and pasted the contents of the txt file above in it. I used sudo chmod 775 to give it the appropriate permissions. Then restarted domoticz.

The error I am seeing in the log is:

Code: Select all

Error: PluginList: Parsing '/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/denon/', 'Error document empty.' at line 0 column 0 in XML

What am I missing?

[Dnpwwo]

@madiep,

There are a few versions of this plugin floating around so you need to be more specific.

There is an example that ships with Domoticz under /plugins/examples but there are others as well. If you are running a current beta there is one i the 'python-enabled' branch that will auto-discovery the receiver for you. For most you need to specifiy a fixed IP address.

If you post where you got the plugin file (and the version number from inside the file) from and what make/model of receiver you have that will help.

[madiep]

Txs for your help. I was talking about this one:

@simon_rb, I use the attached plugin with Domoticz v3.8153 stable.
Just remove _.txt from the filename, I couldn't upload it otherwise.
download/file.php?id=12388

I think I just fixed it by removing the three quotation marks in the first uncommented line. So the plugin is now loading fine, and I am able to add my receiver in the hardware menu.

The next issue I am having is finding devices. The log shows me some errors:

Code: Select all

[simon_rb]

Looking at upgrading my Denon to the X4300 as its last years model an going cheaper. I assume this plugin will not work as I think the http stuff has been removed from the 4300 & 6300 amps. I currently control mine using TEL NET and I think thats still working.. I think. Just wondered if anyone on here has had success with the X4300?

Cheers

Dear friends,

what’s about the latest 2017 series from Denon, eg x1400H - are the latest models still supported? I have tried with the Telnet script, but do not get any response from Receiver, when changing values through remote control. Actually I am not able to install the generic script, because I get error - script is not starting and Receiver does not show up in hardware selection.

Kind regards
Matty

Works fine for me, I also own x1400H. To tell the truth I don't recall which plugin was the correct one, but gonna upload it once I get home.

[nixalsschrott]

Super. Thanks I’m advance. What Domoticz version you are using actually? I am on latest stable.
