Configuration

I am recieveing the following error when trying to connect with the Denon platform:

I’ve seen this too on occasion. I think you can ignore this error.
For some reason, using the telnet interface, the Denon’s response to a volume change is not the value of the new volume (e.g. “33”) but some other seemingly random messages - in your case “ON”.
The component expects a number which it tries to divide by 60 - which obviously fails if there is no number.

I’d suggest you try this component instead:
