Nicolas M. Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) Hello Team, Can you please let me know if Sony STR DN1080 (Home Theater Preamp) is supported ? I’ve tried all Sony audio devices (in audio and misc section) but no one is working at this point or I miss it. Since all my devices are installed on it, i can’t use my new remote :( I don’t know the code but I know it was working with my previous harmony. Thanks for your help.

RemotelyInteresting Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Try adding an A/V device ... Sony/STR models are there I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas M. Posted February 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Unfortunately not. I've tested all STRxxx available in A/V, no one is turning on my DN1080 :( Any other suggestions ? Do I need to wait for the next feature where it will be possible to setup a device using the original remote controller ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainwaring Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 If you manually turn on the preamp does the Skip control volume etc? I have a Denon x1500h and the Skip won't turn it on, though it will control it if I manually turn it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas M. Posted February 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Yes it works. Volume Up/Down are working when I select A/C / Sony / STRDN Series More weird, if I create an activity only with this device I can also turn on/off When I'm adding my device to another activity (with my TV and my box), Turn on is not working .... We have something here, continue my test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas M. Posted February 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 If i associate the "Power Toggle" of the Sony AC on the mute button (not so natural) -> it works If i associate the "Power Toggle" of the Sony AC on the Power Button (before or after the Power On of the TV) -> Not working (only TV power on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainwaring Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Haha, that's weird. I'll have to try that with my setup when I get a moment. Thanks for the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainwaring Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 If I have the Skip plugged into my PC and test the power on, my receiver turns on. If I unplug it and try, it won't turn it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas M. Posted February 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Same. Plugged Test have not the same behavior than unplugged. also noticed that if i change the power toggle to « repeat: 3 » it works ?! @Mainwaring is it the same for you ?

Nicolas M. Posted February 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Spend 2 hours to test several things, i'm done ... Everything works as expected when I test my config with the remote plugged to my Mac (yes i'm using macOS version, is it related ?) and putting every On/Off actions on "Repeat 3" or "Repeat 5" (Repeat 1 not working at all) But when i'm trying "unplugged" the preamp is never starting / shutting down when I press the On/Off remote button (i have tested with "Power Toggle" and "Power On/Off" actions : same behavior) The only workaround i've found is to add "Power Toggle" or "Power On" to another button (button "8" in my example). Then to start my activity, i press "8" then "On/Off" I have the feeling that the remote firmware is not completely working like the app or a part of the config is not properly synced. Or because i've done to many tests, config loaded on remote has been corrupted ? Please find attach my config.file if it could help to reproduce Living Room.skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrast Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 (edited) I have the same issue with a STR-DN1040. I've updated the firmware on the remote to 4.12.12 and the behavior has not changed. EDIT - I reorganized the Power On/Off events to start the receiver first and now it seem to work correctly. Sorry!

Sotz Posted April 3, 2023 Report Share Posted April 3, 2023 I use this with the STR-DN1040 and the remote works fine using the latest beta firmware. Some of the buttons were missing though so I've had to manually add them, namely Input 1,2 and 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
