Your binding recognizes this device after rebooting OpenHAB. Great and thanks. When operating two speakers, the LIDL/Silvercrest app handels them as a stereo device with main volume and L/R volumes knobs. This is not supported by this binding.
Hi, yes I would be very interested too in the possibility to use my FS internet radio as audio sink.
Moreover, I have an Auna Connect 150 and Iâve seen that in the binding documentation are not showed the values of the radio mode channel for this kind of device.
So here are listed the values I use with my device:
you can plug your openHAB system to aux (which you can switch from the binding) and then use it.
I do this with a multiroom system and some very dirty hacks.
My Raspberry, with Openhab2 running, is placed quite far from my internet radio, so connect them with a new audio cable would not be that easy, but before I hadât thought about this possibility.
If FS internet radio could work as audio sink in the Openhab2 system would be definitely much better because, as I understand, in that case no further connection (more the normal LAN or WLAN connection) is needed.
But, thank you, if Iâll manage to move the Raspberry close to the internet radio Iâll have at least one clear way to start to use Openhab2âs audio functions.
New to Openhab I am trying my available devices out; my Block receiver CVR100 has the Frontier Silicon chipset so with good hope I started to add the binding/things in the paperui.
My first thing attempt failed missirable âOFFLINE - COMMUNICATION_ERRORâ
I checked command âhttp:///fsapi/CREATE_SESSION?pin=1234â in my browser. Noticed that not all browsers gives a clear response and best to use was chrome.
But this command returned a 404. Not working??? .
Not satisfied with this result I scanned the open ports of the IP-address of the server,
One of them was port 2244.
Changed the thing-settings into port 2244 and voila it worked.
(and yes I should have read this complete post!)
Added the example items and sitemap with modeate changes and it worked!
Not everything is working yet like âvolumeâ but the starting point is great!!!
Thanks for this binding guys things like this makes life easy for a newby like me.
and the Radio Mode values are:
0 - internet radio
1 - musik player
2 - dab
3 - fm
4 - drm
So far observations (no real problems):
device has no NFC support
when with device remote in standby, openhab cannot start device
when openhabâs âradio powerâ is set to âOFFâ date/time is displayed
not everything is working like volume, need to invest a bit more time
At the moment I feel too much of a newby to update this article.
But my proposal for change would be also:
"http://<radio-ip>:80/fsapi/CREATE_SESSION?pin=1234"
Please check the open ports of your device if the default port 80 is not working.
So I will end with my a question to confirm my newbe status :
What is in the paperui-settings the value location doing (or will be this value picked up when the CVR100 is recognised in the thing settings)?
I have Hama radio, which works fine with this binding. But I canât figure out, how to control playback (play/pause, next track), when using USB stick as a source?
Good evening folks,
I am trying to connect to my Sangean WFR-28D with the FS Internet Radio Binding without success. I need your help since I donât know why it is not working.
I connected my Hama IR320 which is in the same network as the Sangean radio without any issues. So I know my setup looks good so far.
From the outside look it is similar to the Sangean WFR-28C so I thought letâs give it a try. Also the displayed texts are similar to the Hama IR320 ones.
Your radio has the option of being controlled by an application installed on an Apple iPhone, iPod
touch or iPod. The Pin number facility allows you to ensure that your radio can only be controlled by
your own Apple device rather than someone elseâs.
Details of how this feature can be used with your iPhone or iPod touch are explained in the separate
section in this manual called âUsing iSangean app for controlling your WFR-28 internet radioâ.
But when i try to connect with http://192.168.178.121/fsapi/CREATE_SESSION?pin=0000 I also tried 1234, but i set it to 0000 in the radio menu. This also makes me think I am on the right way. I donât recieve anything. I tried that with the browser and also with the curl command. No reply.
Thank you so much for your help! The port 2244 was the key. Now everything works as expected! Now I can confirm that Sangean WFR-28D will work with 2244 as a default port!
I cannot wait to program my new alarm clock
Thank you so much again.
I really appreciate this community. Never saw such a helpful one.
Cheers
Clemens
