Marantz AVR support

Is anyone working on a Marantz AVR app? I have no idea how to make an app but I found this on google when I searched for an API.
https://github.com/ntotten/marantz-avr
Could someone make an app or explain me how to do so? (I have absolutly no experience with anything like that whatshowever)

I have a Marantz (NR1604 if I recall correctly) and will be adding it to Homey if nobody beats me to it. AFAIK Marantz and Denon use similar IP connected interfaces
Will you be adding the AVR's as wel (SRXXXX (I have an SR5007))?
Yes I'm willing to help adding commands that don't work on my own receiver
Thank you very much! Can you keep us posted on this thread? (hopefully you'll receive your homey in a few weeks!)
Will do.

By the way, it should also work for some Denon AVR's since it looks like they use the same protocol.
Perhaps the app for Homey can be a combined Marantz / Denon app? I requested a Denon app a few days ago here on the forum
Do you already have a git with your current progress? I have a Denon AVR-X1200w and was looking in creating a app for Denon.
version 0.0.2 added change input source and mute/unmute actions.
If you know how to get an app from GitHub and run it using the athom-cli, you can test this new version (at this moment, 0.0.1 is in the App store and 0.0.2 is pending approval)
See https://github.com/hilvarenbeek/nl.marcovandenhout.marantz
You can try this on a Denon AVR as well.
It could be that you need to setup the network interface on the AVR first, and enable network during standby:
(1)Press MENU button, then Menu appears on FL-display (and GUI) (2)Select “Manual Setup > Network Setup > Other > Network Standby” (3)Set parameters described below. “ON”---Use this setting when using the AVR-3312 Connected in a network. “OFF”--- Use this setting when not using the AVR-3312 connected in a network. This setting is reducing the power consumption in the standby mode.
Also note that in my current version, you need to specify the AVR's IP address while adding the device, and can't change it later (except ofcourse by removing and adding it again) so if you use DHCP and don't reserve an IP address for the AVR, the DHCP server, usually your router, may assign it a different IP address at some point.
This morning I noticed my flow "Radio aan" does not work. It is a flow containing a speech trigger with the word: radio. After Homey recognizes this word it powers on my Denon receiver and puts it on the most recent internet radio station.
When I go to the flow editor the cards containing actions on my Denon receiver are missing and are removed from all the flows here I used them.
This is the second time I notice this, anyone else has seen this behavior?
