Q: Marantz - is it possible to change hdmi output settings ?

[gibman]

hi.

I'm running home assistant and was looking into my options in terms being able to change the hdmi output from monitor1 to monitor2 and vice versa.

The settings are found in the AVR menu using: setup video output settings: monitor 1 .. monitor 2 etc.

Ive downloaded the android AVR remote software and this is able to achieve this over the network, although manually :(

found the API here .. and looking at page 10 I see some details regarding changing output.

Typing this into a browser seems to work :)

Would it be hard to implement support for this ?

[gibman]

for good measure I analyzed a a wireshark dump and found out how to query for the current monitor out settings...

just make a http POST to : http://192.168.1.x:8080/goform/AppCommand0300.xml along with a body like this:

%0A%3C%3Fxml%20version%3D%221.0%22%20encoding%3D%22utf-8%22%3F%3E%0A%3Ctx%3E%0A%20%3Ccmd%20id%3D%223%22%3E%0A%20%20%3Cname%3EGetOutputSettings%3C%2Fname%3E%0A%20%20%3Clist%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22videoout%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22videomode%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22ipscaler%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22resanalog%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22reshdmi%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22progmode%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%20%3Cparam%20name%3D%22aspect%22%3E%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%20%20%3C%2Flist%3E%0A%20%3C%2Fcmd%3E%0A%3C%2Ftx%3E

in my case I was looking for the "videoout" param name.

response would look like this:

%3C%3Fxml%20version%3D%221.0%22%20encoding%3D%22utf-8%22%20%3F%3E%0A%3Crx%3E%0A%3Ccmd%3E%0A%3Cname%3EGetOutputSettings%3C%2Fname%3E%0A%3Clist%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22videoout%22control%3D%222%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22videomode%22control%3D%222%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22ipscaler%22control%3D%222%22%3E0%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22resanalog%22control%3D%221%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22reshdmi%22control%3D%221%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22progmode%22control%3D%221%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3Cparamname%3D%22aspect%22control%3D%221%22%3E1%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3C%2Flist%3E%0A%3C%2Fcmd%3E%0A%3C%2Frx%3E

videoout value 1 = monitor1 videoout value 2 = monitor2 videoout value 3 = monitor auto

it works on my marantz sr-6012

sorry for the encoded xml markup.. no clue on how to post XML on github forum. Apparently too big a task for me.

Just decode it back to xml: https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/

If you're using home assistant and/or node red there is also telnet. I believe your model has that feature. I found a pretty extensive Marantz command list from 2013.
