Add support for receivers not supporting NRI command #8

Open jorgh6 opened 7 years ago

Currently, the plugin can crash when a receiver does not send its configuration in XML format as a response to the NRI command. This will also be fixed when this enhancement is implemented.

Hello jorgh6, I have found your python code by searcheing for eISCP protokoll for Onkyo. I've an TX-NR525 wich supports the NRI command but I never received a xml. I don't use domoticz. but maybe you could give me an hint what could be the problem... I send the comaand and params via a php script and listen via js-script to all answers from AVR.

@sveni-lee, Maybe the python script I created can give some insight in how to communicate with the Onkyo receiver. If the receiver only does not respond on a NRI command, but others do work, it might not support the NRI command after all. I've read that some recievers need the latest firmware, so that is something you could try. You can find this script in the first post on: https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=65&t=16313&hilit=onkyo

Kind regards,

Jorg

thanks Jorg for answer. I see what you are meaning... my onkoa will support it for sure... My main problem is, I'm looking for a solution to brows through my Musik library on my NAS. On some remote Apps and on the AVR direct it works fine but would lick to have on my "smarthome"
