## Introduction
This Logitech Media Server plugin will turn on and off a networked Denon or Marantz amplifier/receiver when the Squeezebox is turned on/off or a song is played. The plugin will optionally set one of the Quick Select modes or AVR input sources, and set the volume of the Squeezebox to match the amplifier volume. The user can set an optional delay value after the AVR is powered on and set the maximum volume level they wish the amplifier to be set to when controlling the Squeezebox. The user can also modify the AVR audio settings during playback when using the iPeng (iOS) and Squeezer (Android) client apps or the Material Skin LMS interface.

The user can also modify the AVR audio settings during playback when using the iPeng (iOS) and Squeezer (Android) client apps or the Material Skin LMS interface.

The plugin uses the Denon/Marantz serial protocol over a wireless or wired network and therefore a network connection between the Logitech Media Server server and the AVP/AVR must be available.

The plugin has been tested with the Denon AVP-A1HD, as well as numerous Denon and Marantz AVR's, with the Squeezebox Receiver and Touch. It should work with any Denon or Marantz AVR that supports the Denon/Marantz serial protocol over a network and other Squeezebox's as well. The plugin has also been tested with the Apple iOS devices (Touch, iPhone and iPad) using the iPeng application and Android devices using the Squeezer application. It should also work with Logitechs smart phone controllers.
