Any chance you have a Harmony Hub? You can easily call almost any command to the Pioneer receiver via the harmony Hub. I have a VSX-1131 and a bunch of scripts to set inputs, surround mode etc. and they all work great.
My fork (and the original pioneer) component does use the telnet/rs232 interface (AVR 2010, I think it’s called (and is listed at the bottom of the link you gave). The HTTP interface on some models seems to be basically just the same protocol, but using HTTP to send requests.
It would be good if we could compile a list of which receivers need which component. I may add a page on github.
From a quick google search, I think the VSX-1130 might use the same protocol (port 8102) and the 1131 might use a different protocol (eISCP, same as the Onkyo component) and port (port 60128). https://forums.indigodomo.com/viewtopic.php?t=16996
It looks like VSX-1131 should work with the Onkyo component
I went through all the sources for my VSX-1130 and got this to work.

I created folder pioneervsx under custom_components, pasted both files from github there, rebooted system, but I still get error “Platform error media_player.pioneervsx - Integration ‘pioneervsx’ not found.” and I can not find this pioneer under media player.
