It is possible that you can also buy a USB adapter that simulates a RS232 port. You will have to connect you Raspberry with the receive using such a cable.

Other options are available, but the Open Remote Denon Protocol adapter communicates with the receiver using a serial RS232 connection. How do I set up commands like switch on/off over HTTP? The given example on the openremote website ( doesn't do/show anything as I suppose one has first to configure devices How do I list all available CEC-Devices connected to my Pi over HDMI?ģ. How do I tell openremote to communicate with my AVR over HDMI, is that necessary at all?Ģ. What is a controller and how do I set up the right one for my Denon AVR? So more questions I got:ġ. So far I have installed Java and openremote on my PI and shows the login-dialog, so I assume the installation worked.īut now I'm stuck: when the apache web server starts it says "could not find a controller definition to load at path. I would like to use the HTTP protocol with REST and JSON to set up commands to my AVR, I don't want to create any GUI for that using the openremote designer etc., I would like to control my AVR only programmatically.

I am very new to all this stuff, but what I basically plant to do is to write a small Java-program running on my Pi, that is able to switch on/off my AVR, adjust the volume etc.

I just got an Raspberry Pi, which is connected to my Denon AVR over HDMI.
