I would to see a plugin for my Pioneer reciver. My sony 400 disk is why i bought ML software, It works GREAT. Thanks

I would be willing to test or even buying this plugin. I have a VSX-55 Elite with RS232. Let me know my email address is shown on the bottom! Thanks

I will let geislerk post additional information. For now, I will just say that beta testing has gone extremely well.

[geislerk]

Here is my latest build (.dll and .pdf). I did add a max volume level so that instead of the default 93 (0..93) you can set it to say 60, and then when using a slider control, it will scale it between 0..60. I also added an addtional SETVOLUMESCALED command to be used with a slider control so the value it scaled between 0..100 using the max level also.

Please let me know of any issues.

I just want to publicly thank Kurt (geislerk) for his amazing effort on this plug-in. It was a real pleasure working with him throughout the entire beta testing process. He is one of the nicest individuals one could meet and an all around great guy.

Thanks again for everything Kurt!

I would also like to see your ML scene as an example. For some reason, I get bogged down when trying to design my scenes.

I wanted to know if I can control my VSX-49TX Audio Video Receiver and my DVD players using this Pioneer Plug in. I would love to get rid of the serial IR control stuff.

Also, what kind of a cable do I need. Is is just standard Female to Female serial?

I am looking forward to trying this out. This will really make some stuff I have been trying to do so much easier.

Thanks,

Scott

This Plugin only controls the A/V Receiver. It will not control your DVD. The serial cable is just a standard cable.
