Searching for receivers... [UPnP process not completing]

[xerosys]

Hi mthiel,

Thank you for developing this Stream Deck plugin to control HEOS-enabled Denon AV Receivers. This is exactly something I have been looking for and couldn't be happier that you've created something so useful as this.

I'm not familiar with Javascript at all, but managed to install all of the required dependencies following your instructions and compile the source to create the Stream Deck plugin. When I load up the plugin to Stream Deck control panel, however, I get "Searching for receivers..." in the dropdown menu.

Are there certain constants that I would need to modify in the source to make the plugin detect my AVR? Both my Mac mini (running latest macOS) and Denon X3800H are on the same network and connected to each other using HDMI. I have logged onto my HEOS account on my X3800H and the network settings are all enabled.

Best,
xerosys

Hey @xerosys, thanks for giving it a shot!

You shouldn't need to actually log into a HEOS account but I don't think it hurts. The presence of HEOS was just an easy way to say it has to be a network receiver of some kind. It can't be a 500 series that has no ethernet or wifi.

The code doing the receiver search is just a very light-weight UPnP implementation, so I would check your firewall settings in case the Stream Deck app needs LAN access maybe?

Also, I noticed that after applying the MacOS 18.2 update yesterday, the detection isn't working right for me either. I have a hunch it may have messed with LAN connections, since my Home Assistant plugin started acting up at the same time.

Also, thanks for opening the issue on it. I'll update with investigation details here. 👍
