Interest in LAN / HTTP / Ethernet control of Denon/Marantz ?

I've been using EG to control my marantz(same as denon) via http for some time now. I've been using EG's python snippet command to send HTTP Posts to the webserver and its worked well. I don't think it would be too difficult to extrapolate this into an EG plugin.

I dont have a Denon or Marantz, but I┬┤m interested in how your python snippet looks (I would like to control a Dreambox via HTTP)

Old thread, but I hope I can revive it.
I'm very much interested in seeing how you control your AVR as I have a Denon AVR-1912 that I want to control with eventghost over ethernet.
I've searched a lot regarding this, but I'm baffled that there seems to be no complete solution yet. Thus I've begun trying to make my owm plugin by combining the Network Event Sender/Reciever plugin with the DenonSerial plugin (which seems to include most of the commands for the AVR).
However, I don't have any experience in python programming but I'm hoping that I could just replace the serial communication stuff in DenonSerial with what's needed for tcp communication.
Actually, with a little modified Network Event Sender I can already map commands in eventghost that successfully can control my AVR!
Next step is to get all AVR commands from DenonSerial automatically added in eventghost with my plugin. After that it would be very nice to also recieve events from the AVR.
There has to be others that want this working, so I hope I'll get someone helping me out on this if I get stuck!

G'Day,
I've postwritten ed a pretty basic Marantz TCP plugin here
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5498
It does volume and mute out of the box, and you can send other commands by just looking them up in the command spec.
Hope that helps,
