According to the documentation the Sony STR-DN1080 is compatible with the integration and I should be able to change input source with an automation. I have installed the integration and I can see the receiver in the entities list. I assume my problem is that I don’t manage to set up the automation correct.
My goal is to:
When press button A select input source BD/DVD
When press button B select input source VIDEO 1
Can someone please point me in the right direction or, even better, explain the steps from installing the integration to set up the automation rules. Am I missing something? Do I need to add something in for example the configuration.yaml?

Regarding most recent comment in January, that GitHub page is also linked from the Sony Songpal integration page, but the relevant link is toward the end of this quote:
Services
In addition to the general media player services, the following services are provided:
Service songpal/set_sound_setting
For a list of available settings and their values use songpal sound command.
Unfortunately, as should be clear from that link, where the songpal sound command is in a separate section from the songpal zone command, zone controls aren’t sound settings. AFAICT, someone would need to write a “songpal.set_zone_setting” service or something along those lines in order for us to control Zone 2.
