homebridge-plugin for Yamaha AVR https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge
Homebridge plugin for multi-zone Yamaha Receivers like the RX-V1075 that creates a HomeKit TV Icon to control the receiver. A TV Icon will be created for each zone, and will be controllable by the iOS Control Centre Remote App.
The Yamaha AVR will display as a TV Accessory with Power, Input, Volume & Remote Control.
The plugin will detect inputs automatically by querying the receiver. Note that inputs with a custom name and all network applications will be visible by default. If other inputs are desired to be visible this needs to be changed in the Home app.
Follow the instruction in NPM for the homebridge server installation. The plugin is published through NPM and should be installed "globally" by typing:
sudo npm install -g homebridge-yamaha-zone-tv
