Glad to hear that.

I had to look at a Denon manual to see what you are referring to here
but it explains some of the strange behavior we are seeing, specifically
the fact that the response to the Z2ON command, where I expect to see
the current Zone 2 volume setting coming back, is always showing Z277
(or -3dB) in your system, whereas I am seeing the expected value in
David's. My original plan was to sync the client volume to that value,
as I now do in the main zone, but I had to take a different approach
because I didn't want you to blow out your speakers. ;-) 

So it appears to me that you have set a fixed value of 77 (-3dB) for the
Zone 2 "Volume Level" (not "Volume Limits") instead of "Variable" (the
default). This would also explain why the Zone 2 volume control on your
remote doesn't function. The only reason I can think of to do this would
be if you were using an external preamp with its own gain control, which
I don't think you are doing. Can you go into your menu and change that
option to "Variable"?  I have a feeling that doing this will also get
rid of the volume change timeouts, as the AVR is likely not expecting to
see Zone 2 volume change requests when the "Volume Level" option is not
"Variable".

Please send a debug log after you make the change. If the results are
what I expect, I will go back to my original plan of syncing the client
volume to the Zone 2 volume setting returned from the Z2ON command, as
is now done for the main zone.

Thanks.
