Hi fellow community members, I wanted to point out the fabulous alternative Denon Heos app from @nlrb When i had some throuble (missing features and lost connections) with the Athom Heos app, i went searching for alternatives, @nlrb pointed me to his app on GitHub: [GitHub - nlrb/com.soundunited.heos: Homey app for Heos](https://github.com/nlrb/com.soundunited.heos) For those of u who aren’t familiar with installing an GitHub (version) of an homey app, follow this guide: [https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-cli-install-method/](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-cli-install-method/) In my experience it’s more stable than the Athom app, and it has more features, i’ve created this post to point fellow community members and Heos users to this great app (with agreement of @nlrb, and many thanks for his effort!). # D&M Heos app Control your Denon/Marantz Heos devices with Homey. **Support** This app supports all Heos devices (all with device specific images). **Triggers** The following triggers can be used: - Playback starts - Playback pauses - Playback stops - Now playing changes - Volume changes - Artist changes - Album changes - Track changes - Now playing changes **Conditions** The following conditions are implemented: - is/is not playing **Actions** The following actions are implemented: - Play - Pause - Toggle play/pause - Previous track - Next track - Set volume - Mute - Unmute - Shuffle on - Shuffle off - Repeat (off, repeat track, playlist) - Play Heos favorite - Play URL - Select input - Turn on/off (For receivers only) **Languages** 🇬🇧 English is supported at this time **Change log** > 1.1.3: > > - Turn on/off receivers added > - fixed no response handling > - Workaround for mobile app: cannot handle empty image element > - Workaround implemented for changed Homey CLI behaviour > 1.1.2: > > - Added new icons and input select > 1.1.1: > > - Added play URL This thread will be updated if there are any changes or updates. ---

I just installed the app, but im not able to sign in. I enter my credentials, but the button just says “log out”. Status says “logged out”. Any ideas? ---

The “save settings” button is logging you in. so try to play a favorite via an flow card, see if it works. ---

Hi, installed the app, it crashes over and over. Stopped the Marantz app, no succes Removed Marantz app, no succes Restart homey, no succes Re-install Heos app, no succes 22nd app on my homey, you think thats too much? ![Screenshot_20200201-112644](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/f/ef9ed3d9ce3a4e6d00bf5809f522cbe7330ae3c7.jpeg) ---

Yes its possible to contol grouped speakers, e.g. The pause command for one speaker in an group wil pause the whole group. Making/adding and removing of groups is not yet supported. ---

Could you send the debug log? (Where you typed athom app install, type athom app run instead, the debug log wil show) Which heos device are you trying to operate? ---

thanks for the app! I think it’s really great. I just installed it, no errors at all in CLI. But when I open my Homey app the first thing I see on my timeline is: the app D&M Heos has stopped working. When I restart the app it says: Crashed during loading in a red window on top of the app. I also can’t open config What is wrong? Help is welcome 🙂 ---

Windows defender started freaking out trying to download the latest version from github (a false positive, as there is nothing that can have the trojan is in there), this might be the cause of the module not being there after downloading ---

thanks for your quick reply. My windows defender didn’t gave a problem, but still I tried again. Make sure everything is right.
