Pioneer Plugin Raw Command Send?

Hey,

Having an issue with the audio delay setting I need on my VSX 1127 to stay set after powering off.
Hoping there might be a way to set it with a raw command?

Thanks,

Carl

Hi Carl.

Pioneer stopped publicly listing information on the 2012 receivers, but you can still download the spreadsheet directly from Pioneer's web site that defines all the commands and responses here. In the "Functions" tab of that Excel spreadsheet, look for the "*ATF" command for "Sound Delay". The asterisk (*) should be replaced by a 3 digit number from 000 to 100 where 001 represents a delay of 0.1 frames and 100 represents a delay of 10.0 frames. So a command of 025ATF would set an audio delay of 2.5 frames. You can also specify either "DOWN" or "UP" adjustment with 998 and 999 respectively.

The document isn't clear about what "frames" are, whether they're talking about video frames or data frames. My guess would be video frames, but I can't be certain.

The raw command works fine..problem is it doesn’t stay in effect after a power off.
Strange that the delay setting does survive the power cycle but isn’t in effect til you actually change it again.

Thanks,

Carl

Re: Pioneer Plugin Raw Command Send?

Should I be able to send the value of a variable in the “send raw command” field”?

Trying something like this with no joy.
%%v:1057747980%%

Trying a clumsy fix by toggling a variable to change the delay setting and inserting that delay value
on each power up.

Thanks.

Carl

Hi Carl.

I’m glad the command works. That almost sounds like a bug with the receiver. You might check to see if there’s a firmware update. No guarantee that will fix it. But by around 2013 I know there were around 2 updates for my older VSX-1021-K which was released in 2010. Updating the firmware can probably be done online through the receiver’s Home menu if it’s like the 1021 (assuming Pioneer still maintains the servers).

And no. There’s no variable value substitution feature in the plug-in. It could probably be done using a Python script, but not through the Indigo UI. Only static values will work there.
