Denon Network Receivers

The denon platform allows you to control a Denon Network Receivers from Home Assistant. It might be that your device is supported by the Denon AVR platform.

Supported devices:

• Denon DRA-N5
• Denon RCD-N8 (untested)
• Denon RCD-N9 (partial support)
• Denon AVR receivers with integrated Network support (partial support)

To add a Denon Network Receiver to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

Telnet platform

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  - platform: denon
    host: IP_ADDRESS

Configuration variables:

• host (Required): IP address of the device. Example: 192.168.1.32
• name (Optional): Name of the device.

A few notes for platform: denon

• The receiver handles only one telnet connection and refuses others.
• Be careful with the volume. 100% or even 50% is very loud.
• To be able to wake up the receiver, activate the “remote” setting in the receiver’s settings.
• Play and pause are supported, toggling is not possible.
• Seeking cannot be implemented as the UI sends absolute positions. Only seeking via simulated button presses is possible.
