Developers / New Onkyo device
« on: July 18, 2011, 07:06:32 pm »
So, I recently picked up a new Onkyo receiver that has an Ethernet port instead of the serial. This makes it much easier to hook up to my LinuxMCE system but I now need to create the new device and I have two questions.
First, how can I copy the old device to a new one? All the same items apply and I was hoping to shortcut things a little bit.
Second, it appears that the same connection type can be used since it supports both serial and network connections but how do I send binary data? The string values are the same but there is a bunch of header/footer information that needs sent in a binary format.
Thanks!
