Plus, controlling everything via a single app would be cool. You can try setting the ID to 254 which will control all displays regardless of what ID they have been assigned. The NAD also offers remote control via bluetooth, but the responsiveness on that path can be pretty poor. Hey Carl, if you press the Home button on the remote (not menu) youll see options to set the control type to either RS232 or network, and to set the ID on the display. It just lets one interact with a Denon receiver via menus within Kodi (using an RPi’s UART to communicate with the Denon).Ĭlearly this isn’t a feature of earth-shattering importance in any way! I do have a universal remote.

Heckie75 / kodi-addon-denon-dra-f109-remoteīut I don’t believe it actually integrates with Kodi’s volume controls in anyway. (So long as it was rock solid – no sudden changes to maximum volume, for instance!) It would be nifty to control the amplifier as well as Kodi through that app. The app I typically use on the iPad has volume control available, but I’ve always just left that at 100% and used the integrated amplifier to control the actual volume. The intent is to permit control of the playback volume through DLNA. That would then permit Kodi to reflect any volume changes that were made by, you know, actually moving the knob on the front of the amplifier. Ideally, a Python service could be polled by Kodi to determine what the current volume is. It would seem possible to have Python (even the Python 2 that’s available within Kodi Leia) transmit and receive via that path.Īny of the variables that can be set by RS232 can also be queried. I have plenty of unused USB ports on the Odroid C4 that’s running CE, and $10 gets one a USB-to-serial cable. The NAD receiver that is handling 2-channel audio doesn’t connect to HDMI, but it does have what seems like a pretty straightforward RS232 interface:Ĭ388 RS232 Codes (ZIP file of PDFs and Windows test executable) Is it possible to “divert” any of the HDMI-CEC command handling within Kodi to a Python addon / service? Specifically I’m thinking of the VolumeUp and VolumeDown commands. I never seem to get much of a response on the Kodi forums, though, so I thought I might start with the experts here…

The software platform I am using has ability to put in the established Hex codes for ON/OFF PWR and will send the codes with the timing of the application.Īny and all advice on subject matter would be amazing, again green and trying to learn the ropes.I realize this is likely more a Kodi question than a CoreELEC question. Are any of these in HEX? or are any of these hex codes that i can use? I see 'Raw String' 'URC Format String' then the List of 1-7 Byte. Via the Excel doc (downloaded fine for me), I see Power Toggle, Power Off And Power On first 3 rows. What I am attempting to do is Control (ON/OFF) capabilities for the display via 'HEX' code, from a Asus Chromebox i3 PC. This doc is great, I have been fishing around attempting to find information on serial control to a new samsung LED tv ( just bought a few weeks ago). Ok guys don't laugh at me too hard, I am a complete newb at all this stuff and terminology etc.
