Using denonavr and uc-integration-api

The driver discovers Denon or Marantz AVRs on the network. A media player entity is exposed to the core.

Supported attributes:

• State (on, off, playing, paused, unknown)
• Title
• Album
• Artist
• Artwork
• Source

Supported commands:

• Turn on
• Turn off
• Next
• Previous
• Volume up
• Volume down
• Play/pause
• Source select

• Requires Python 3.11
• Install required libraries:
  (using a virtual environment is highly recommended)

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

For running a separate integration driver on your network for Remote Two, the configuration in file driver.json needs to be changed:

• Set driver_id to a unique value, uc_denon_driver is already used for the embedded driver in the firmware.
• Change name to easily identify the driver for discovery & setup with Remote Two or the web-configurator.
• Optionally add a "port": 8090 field for the WebSocket server listening port.
  • Default port: 9090
  • Also overrideable with environment variable UC_INTEGRATION_HTTP_PORT

python3 intg-denonavr/driver.py

See available environment variables in the Python integration library to control certain runtime features like listening interface and configuration directory.

After some tests, turns out python stuff on embedded is a nightmare. So we're better off creating a single binary file that has everything in it.

To do that, we need to compile it on the target architecture as pyinstaller does not support cross compilation.

On x86-64 Linux we need Qemu to emulate the aarch64 target platform:

sudo apt install qemu binfmt-support qemu-user-static
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes

Run pyinstaller:

docker run --rm --name builder \
    --platform=aarch64 \
    --user=$(id -u):$(id -g) \
    -v "$PWD":/workspace \
    docker.io/unfoldedcircle/r2-pyinstaller:3.11.6  \
    bash -c \
      "python -m pip install -r requirements.txt && \
      pyinstaller --clean --onefile --name intg-denonavr intg-denonavr/driver.py"

On an aarch64 host platform, the build image can be run directly (and much faster):

docker run --rm --name builder \
    --user=$(id -u):$(id -g) \
    -v "$PWD":/workspace \
    docker.io/unfoldedcircle/r2-pyinstaller:3.11.6  \
    bash -c \
      "python -m pip install -r requirements.txt && \
      pyinstaller --clean --onefile --name intg-denonavr intg-denonavr/driver.py"
