You will have to live with it for now, Ill see if I can change the position of the IP number later on so that it is stored in HS.

Here is a new version. This one defaults to 192.168.1.80 if you havent set the IP. Earlier it defaulted to ip number "No IP Set".
This version also tries to reconnect if connection is lost.
There is a live check with debug information in the debug window.
Power and Mute now has feedback to homeseer. So if you change the state on the amplifier, it will update HS.
Next is to update all devices with feedback.
Tell me if you have any problems.Attached Files

Agwan,
Just wanted to say thanks for developing this plugin and making it available and post what I have done for my situation in hopes it will aid someone else.
I have a different model Yamaha receiver than the RX-A3000 (RX-V477 in fact), if you recall from a previous post my inputs did not lineup to what the 3000 uses making that particular part not very functional for me. all other parts worked just fine such as volume, mute on/off. I was able to take what you have accomplished and bundle it with this new HS plugin Eventghost by kingfetty and get the inputs working correctly for my particular model. Eventghost has what appears to be a fairly all inclusive plugin for the yamaha receiver line. I then bundled it all together with Jon00's grouping plugin and I have a nice fully functional solution to control my receiver.
Thanks again.
Ken

The IP number is stored in registry now. Port is fixed 50000, does anyone ever change that?
Implemented:
All inputs
Mute
Power
Party mode
Party mute
Vol up/down 0.5, 1, 2, 5 dB
Next:

Error
Calling HSEvent in plugin Arduino Plugin, Instance :Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I was advised by the developer of the Arduino plugin to send him a debug log. I captured one and looked it over myself and could find no cause for this error message. He also asked what I may have recently installed and the only program I installed was your plugin. I disabled your plugin and the error messages stopped. I re-enabled your plugin and they started to appear again. I disabled your plugin again and the error messages stopped.
There must be some conflict between the two.

Wondering if we have based our plugins on the same demo plugin. I have some issue with my heat pump plugin aswell, it sais there is alreayd another plugin installed with the same name, but the names arent even close. Tell me what you can find and I will update my plugin if needed.
Here is a new version of the plugin aswell. Volume feedback, input feedback.

* Check if I can make the ethernet reads asynchronus. As they are now I have to pull the ethernet data. This causes that messages might be missed if they are transmitted in fast pase from the amplifier as they are at power on. Also the updates might be faster with asynchronus. I would like to se 100ms or so from push of button on the amplifier to update in HS.
* Control over more devices like zones.Attached Files

I just put the latest one on, added the IP and restarted HS - seems to have remembered the IP :-)
I would love to see scenes as an option. I use them when setting the amp for a different device.

Slowly going forward. I got the plugin to generate devices from an XML file that is automatically generated from the Yamaha text document. But it was hard to debug when I genrated devices directly from reading the XML file, so Im working on importing the XML file into a homeseer device struct first, then it will be simpler to see that that struct is filled correctly and generate devices from that.
Just to let you guys know the project advancing.

There, finally been able to import the XML into a usable set of variables. It took me a while. The problem was the lists of lists of lists since the amplifier has subunits which has functions which have the functions.
Next is using the variable set to automatically create virtual devices in Homeseer.
I think this will work quite well. Or atleast I hope so.
