I have a similar situation to the one just described by gnackwatschn. One of my players is a squeezelite instance running on a Raspian/RPi4 device through a hifiberry digi+ card to an old Denon receiver. I had previously used the IRBlaster plugin (with an SB3 classic and an IR transmitter) to control the receiver remotely (power on/power off/volume up/volume down/audio in), but I have recently switched over to a serial controller device with an ethernet connection that is plugged in to the RS232 port on the receiver.
I initially tried using the Denon AVP/AVR Control LMS plugin mentioned by gnackwatschn, but that had problems controlling volume even through the default skin on LMS. I switched over to Peter Watkin's DenonSerial plugin to control my receiver, and that works great through the default skin. My problems arise using the material skin when the volume of the player is changed. As gnackwatschn mentioned, the audio setting for the player needs to be at 100% in order for the volume to be controlled by the receiver. This works fine with the default skin, where clicking the button on either side of the volume slider (see picture below) causes a stepwise change in volume, and clicking within the slider causes the volume to jump to the specified volume. This works similarly with the iPeng and Squeeze Ctrl apps (in the case of Squeeze Ctrl after setting a preference to send volume signals even though the player is set to 100%). 32878 With the material skin, the slider shows up as "fixed volume", but the buttons on either side are indeed active (see picture below). Unfortunately, when I click the left button, the volume jumps to a fixed high level, and when I click the right button, the volume jumps to a fixed higher level. Further clicking those buttons doesn't change anything. 32876 There is clearly a difference in how the volume controls are sent to the receiver from the two different skins, but I am not sure how to sort this out. The Denon controller plugins also clearly impact how the volume levels are set. I am happy to troubleshoot the situation if anyone has suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help! +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: 2021-01-07 07_59_52-Logitech Media Server Mozilla Firefox.png| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=32878| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DAR's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7274 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624
