RS520 home assist integration

Hello!
Is it expected that there will be a Home Assist integration by default, or is someone making one?
I already found one written for the ra180 here, I tried modifying it a bit, but unfortunately it didn’t work.
Is there anyone who can help? I need a few basic functions such as: on/off, volume, input source

It would be a great help

Thanks

Currently, there is no official Home Assistant integration for the RS520. The integration made for the RA180 may not work properly with the RS520 due to differences between the models.

We understand your need for basic functions like on/off, volume, and input source control. While we do not officially support Home Assistant at the moment, we are considering future options and appreciate your feedback.

ok. I made the working integration with chat gpt in a few hours, so I had to listen to the apis as well.
For you, this would probably have been even less time.

There is another bug in the latest fw: the spotify service keeps turning off about every 1 day.

Ok, would love to see what you did.
And where you found docs on the connection calls and apis.

Here you can find it

I monitored the api with wireshark, while using the pc app I watched what data was being transferred between the pc and the amplifier.

If the manufacturer doesn’t provide it…

Cool.
That’s one way to do it.

Definitely not supported and if they change the APIs… you have to start redo some of the work.
