yamaha-avr2mqtt

yamaha-avr2mqtt is a lightweight adapter that bridges Yamaha AV receivers with MQTT, enabling seamless integration into home automation ecosystems. It allows users to monitor and control their receivers through MQTT topics, making them accessible to platforms like Home Assistant, Node-RED, or custom scripts.

Key Features

• Status Publishing — Publishes receiver status (power, volume, input, etc.) to MQTT topics for real-time monitoring.
• Command Control — Accepts commands via MQTT to control the receiver, such as adjusting volume or changing sound programs.
• Configurable Topics — Supports customizable MQTT topic prefixes for flexible integration into existing setups.
• Tested Compatibility — Specifically tested with the Yamaha RX-V473 model, ensuring reliable operation.

Philosophy

The project follows a minimalist, single-purpose design, focusing on reliable two-way communication between Yamaha receivers and MQTT without unnecessary complexity.
