Where do I find the repair button? Do I need the test version for this? I have a receiver A2080 and can’t find the repair function.
I want to turn on and control my zone 2 via Homey.

edit:
I added my receiver again as an musiccast receiver. now I can operate with the flows.

203

what is wrong
http://192.168.178.143/YamahaExtendedControl/v1/zone2/setPower?power=on works perfectly when I use a browser.
but this is not working:

An example is shown in the hint. Start the parameter with /zone2/... in your case.

But why aren’t you using the zone device?

But why aren’t you using the zone device?

yes, i do. see my edit post above

206

But in this case you don’t need this flow card. Just turn your zone device on/off. If that doesn’t work, you can send me a disgnostics report to see why.

If you want to use the api request flow card, take a look at the example and adjust the URL.

207

both is working now.
all good. i’m now using the right flow card.

208

but i have the following requirement and maybe you can help me.
I have the following situation.
1x receiver a2030 +
1x zone2
2x wx 010

i would like the zone2 to connect to the wx010 so that both play the same music. i can easily set this manually in the musiccast app (and also make a routine out of it). can i implement this connecting (and possibly also disconnecting) via homey or this yamaha app?

I have seen that you can add devices to a server. Unfortunately, my zone2 is not in the selection.

Hehe, just wondered if the default case would’t work :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I have to check the API but I think via API only devices can be connected. For now you can connect the devices instead of the zone. I will check if I can add a zone card in addition.

chatgpt says that:

Ja, Zone2 kann in eine Gruppe eingebunden werden. Laut der Yamaha Extended Control API Specification (Advanced) kannst du dies Ăźber die API tun. Hier sind die wichtigsten Schritte:

  1. Setze die Client-Informationen fĂźr Zone2
    → Verwende die API /v1/dist/setClientInfo, um Zone2 einem bestehenden Group ID zuzuweisen.

    Beispiel-Request:

    POST http://{Device}/YamahaExtendedControl/v1/dist/setClientInfo
{
    "group_id": "9A237BF5AB80ED3C7251DFF49825CA42",
    "zone": ["zone2"]
}

  2. FĂźge Zone2 zum Master-Server hinzu
    → Nutze die API /v1/dist/setServerInfo, um die Zone2-Client-IP zur Gruppe hinzuzufügen.

    Beispiel-Request:

    POST http://{MasterDevice}/YamahaExtendedControl/v1/dist/setServerInfo
{
    "group_id": "9A237BF5AB80ED3C7251DFF49825CA42",
    "zone": "main",
    "type": "add",
    "client_list": ["192.168.0.6"]
}

  3. Starte die Verteilung
    → Verwende /v1/dist/startDistribution, um die Gruppenkonfiguration zu aktualisieren.

    Beispiel-Request:

    GET http://{MasterDevice}/YamahaExtendedControl/v1/dist/startDistribution?num=1

Sobald diese Befehle erfolgreich ausgefĂźhrt wurden, sollte Zone2 in die Gruppe integriert sein und die Audioverteilung funktionieren.

Hi,
New to Homey and so happy to find this app!

Can you add Amazon Music and Alexa to this of inputs?

Thanks,
John

Can you please open the repair mode for the device and send me the device features (as PM)? Thanks.

New test version 1.1.14:

  • Added AmazonMusic and Alexa to MusicCast Input list.

@John_Mag FYI, you can install the test version using the link above and check if the new entries in input list are working as expected.

215

Works great. Thank you for such a quick response.

New test version 1.2.0:

  • Added dynamic mode list and autocomplete flow cards for Input and SurroundProgram.

This version makes mode lists for Input and SurroundProgram dynamic. That means, the selection in device details shows only available entries for your device.

The corresponding flow cards are added. The offer an autocomplete field now.
The old static flow cards are still working (if you already added them to your flow), but they are deprecated now. That means you can only select the new ones adding them to your flow.

Thank you for a great app. I really enjoy using the “Add Device to this Server” feature to connect my MusicCast products. I have quite a few speakers in different rooms and of various models. However, this feature hasn’t worked for me for quite some time. Is it just me experiencing this issue, or is it a general problem?

Hi, thanks for the app. The ‘input changed’ card does not work on my RN1000a when I change the input on the device itself (or the musiccast app). Seems like the polling function does not work right.

219

Are you using the AV Receiver or MusicCast device?

i use the musiccast device
