Title: Harman Kardon plugin
Post by: nosehook on November 01, 2015, 04:43:54 PM

I recently bought a Harman Kardon BDS 880 set and it has WIFI and an ethernet port. Thinking there might be protocols for it to communicate via a network I have been looking around but can not find much. I know it supports DLNA and airplay etc, so I assume there is a way to control it via a network. There are also apps for smartphones for it.

I know there are plugins in VoxCommando for Onkyo and Sonos, so I was wondering if there is a way to make a plugin for HK too.

If this has already been done (or if there is a working plugin for Event  Ghost), please advice and I am happy to use that.

Regards,

Freek

I can't really find anything online that defines their network protocol.  I'm sure they have one so maybe someone else has figured it out.  All I could find was some info on controlling it via serial port.  There is a plugin for EventGhost which uses serial.
