STAX Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I need a driver for the Pioneer SC-LX73 - (2011) IP and or serial. There is no driver in the database. What other AVR model's driver will closely match this one and will work for this model as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Nearest one would be the SC-LX77, though itsn't never certain, serial is likely to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STAX Posted November 25, 2017 Author Share Posted November 25, 2017 I have tried the following drivers. SC-37, SC-65, SC-LX77 on EA3 On network the driver knocks the receiver of the network & can only be reset by unplugging the power. The receiver works fine with RTI XP6 using an SC-65 IP driver. On serial the On/Off command don't work, but vol, mute and input works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 You sure on.off don;'t work - testing in composer will NOT give you proper feedback on that, as receiver drivers use a separate setup for multi-zone use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STAX Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 Ok great thanks for the info. You are spot on. Composer testing does not work for on/off. Its is stipulated in the documentation of the driver. Further testing revealed that the receiver inputs are switching but Digital Media Sources of the Control4 processor are not switching in zone 2&3 The audio out on the EA3 is connected to input CD on the receiver. When selecting Shairbridge or any Digital media in Zone 2 & 3 the input does not switch. There is an audio endpoint for the main zone but no audio endpoints for this source in composer for zone 2 & 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I'm guessing you have HDMI connected to the receiver, and the router can't route that to zone 2/3 - to do this you'll need to get a special driver(s) installed called a/v pathsetter.

STAX Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 Most receivers will only route analog sources (also FM & Ipod) to all zones , while hdmi sources only for Main zone 1 For this specific reason I chose an EA3 processor with analog audio out. I have analog audio out on the EA3 connected to analog input CD on the Pioneer receiver. Everything works fine in Main Zone 1, but not in zone 2/3. Selecting FM Radio(from receiver) or ipod USB in zone 2/3 works. When selecting Digital Media sources like Shairbridge or My Music connected to analog input CD, the input does not switch and remains on the last input selected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I have a different Pioneer amp (VSX-926 I think) and I am trying to figure this out as well. For Zone 2 (or B ) there seem to be two configs - replicating Zone 1 or using a different source. However it isn't clear what sources you can use for Zone 2, the manual doesn't seem to specify that. In addition to analog can you use the digital coax input, assuming that you have one on the AVR? My controller in this instance is an HC-800. And one question regarding the audio coming from a controller. Will the HC800's analog out(s) and digital coax out automatically be getting the same audio feed as HDMI if you have an HDMI binding or do you have to go in and also do bindings for those audio outputs of the HC800?

STAX Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 The problem seems to be with Digital Media and everything that falls under it like, Shairbridge, TuneIn, My Music Can I only play Digital Media through the HDMI & digital audio out on the controller? How can I play digital media through the analogue audio out? I don't see any connection for analog out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
