Home Assistant Custom Component for Pioneer VSX 920

Older Pioneer VSX amplifier/receivers require extra carriage returns to be sent to the receiver before they are ready to accept commands.

This custom component fixes that issue.

Installation

1. Copy manifest.json and media_player.py to /custom_components/pioneervsx/ directory
2. Add configuration below to configuration.yaml
3. Restart Home Assistant
4. If required, add a media_player control to the UI

Configuration.yaml

  - platform: pioneervsx
    name: "VSX920"
    host: 192.168.1.2
    port: 8102
    enabled_sources_only: true

Extra Features

• enabled_sources_only: Limits the list of sources to only those enabled on the Receiver. (true by default, set to false to see all sources)
