To elaborate further (this assumes your server is running on windows ie.
can use EventGhost))
I use the Zoom Player plugin to listen on:
Host: localhost
Port: 9090
to get iPeng/LMS web interface inputs
Then I take the payloads received to trigger actions to my AV equipment
example - Then Event
Take a look at "EventGhost". I use it to controlled my amp via RS232. It
is possible that there is a plugin available that could be used for
control over LAN (have not looked for this specifically but the software
is very versitile).

Did anyone make any progress on this?
I did a bit of tracing on my yamaha and looks like simple HTTP post
requests with XML request/response bodies. Wasn't too hard to get
together some curl scripts to turn it on, set the input and change
volume. I'd like a plugin that could do this but rather no
If you install 'Firebug' (http://getfirebug.com/) in Firefox, you can
watch the requests going from the browser to the receiver's web
interface, and learn how they work. The next step is to configure LMS
to issue such requests automatically, which I believe should be doable.

I would find that quite useful too. I would be especially interested in
something that allows the volume to control the amp/receiver instead of
the Squeezebox player.
I have a Pioneer receiver and it, too, has a web interface where you
can control power, input, volume, etc.

I have tried to find a solution to quite a simple problem that I guess
many people have?
I use a Yamaha av amp which has connection to my LAN and has its own
web interface to control the unit remotely. The amps web interface can
change the input and power the unit up and down remotely over the
net
