Scene with input selection

[extremeaudio]

I have added a denon receiver as a hardware using the IP control plugin. It creates switches that say Power , and then another switch that has a drop down to select the Input , viz. BluRay, DVD etc.

Now I want to create a scene which turns on the power of the receiver and selects a certain input let’s say DVD and maybe even set a certain volume level or press play. But in the scene menu I get no option to select the input or any of the other things. How does one achieve this ?

I think the best way is a dummy swich and a script.
If you are not familiar with programming, a blocky script is pretty simply

I am not able to find the option to select any parameter like volume level (for an amplifier) or source input (for a tv) even in Blockly. The options are mostly similar to those in Scenes.

When I select a selector switch I can set a level % (0, 10%, 20%, etc)
That level percentage is the same as the level that is shown if you click on edit of that selector switch. Eg

0 off
10 TV
20 AUX
30 Bluetooth

But when I select denon receiver plugin I can’t select inputs.

Never mind. Event for inputs one has to select the percentage. A bit unusual but it works

Good you found it. But indeed a little strange and not very intuitive.
