Hello,
I have created a script to turn on my Denon receiver and play a radio station from my Heos favorites.
I have include a volume setting to have a reasonably low volume early morning.
The steps in my script code now are:
Turn on Denon
Set Volume
Play radio station
However, somehow Denon overrules the volume command and sets the volume at the power on volume configured in the receiver itself, which is much higher.
How can I remedy this and have the Denon play on the volume I’m trying to set from the HA script?
So why not change it to that volume when (!) you switch on the TV (with or without HA supporting this)? It seems you want both but the basis is that the machine needs to accept a volume without being on which then also need to allow default values… clearly a lot you ask
I would expect that to happen as Denon has no clue of any outside connections when powering on.
They could (!) have implemented something to check external-volume-input before setting default but possibly too complex. Looking at my (old) Denon, when it powers on and I press volume down on remote, it is slow too. Still, I donot see any reason to set it low default and change when using HA…but this is my view
