Getting repeat Can't Connect to device error

[gadgetfreak98]

Hi, I am getting endless errors that Homebridge cannot connect. Furthermore the toggle in the Home app doesn't actually turn the Denon receiver on. I know I have the right IP address as the Marantz volume control plugin works fine.

thoughts? error below...

I'm not sure about everyone else but according to the owner of the plugin (https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-marantz-denon-telnet).

The AVR's that support HEOS dropped the web based controls. This plugin appears to be designed to work with those controls.

For what's it worth I attempted to install that plug in, and it broke my homebridge config, as the setup for that plugin is "zeroconf" I checked the logs and basically any device that had port 23 open was attempting to be registered : \ Denon Heos did show up though.

Maybe you'd like to try the dev branch of this repository. It also uses telnet for communication. For installation information, see #22
