Emotiva XMC-1 Driver

[pjgregory]

I know that this is now included in the 4.8 release, but I cannot find any information about it it the list of supported drivers. Am I missing something?

It was done for a user and I guess I never got around to documenting it. I'll see about getting some docs on it. Or maybe I did it but failed to get it linked to in the A/V processor section.

Unfortunately it doesn't support quite enough stuff to be V2 compliant, though I just noticed that the manifest file says it is V2 compliant for some reason. I probably thought it was going to be when I started. I fixed that for the next drop.

I have just ordered an Emotiva XMC-1 in their special re-furbished sale. It would help if you could provide the documentation as its difficult to work out what may be going on just by looking at the field names.

I have just downloaded the latest IP Protocol for the Emotiva XMC-1 (dated 7/29/2015). As far as I can see, it is possible to read/write to every function value in the processor. Why do you say it is not V2 compliant? Is it because some things are missing from the Protocol or just because not every thing has not yet been implemented in the driver?

As I remember it's because there were some things missing from the protocol. It's been a while so I don't remember the details now.

It would still help if you publish the format of the Invoke command. The other fields seem obvious, but unless I can send commands, the driver is DOA.

The values you can send are:

AdjDimLevel
AdjZ1Mode
NextSource
SetAllStereo
SetAuto
SetDolby
SetStereo
SetDTS
SetTuner
SetSource1
SetSource2
SetSource3
SetSource4
SetSource5
SetSource6
SetSource7
SetSource8
SetZ2Ana1
SetZ2Ana2
SetZ2Ana3
SetZ2Ana4
SetZ2Ana5
SetZ2Ana71
SetZ2Ana8
SetZ2Coax1
SetZ2Coax2
SetZ2Coax3
SetZ2Coax4
SetZ2Opt1
SetZ2Opt2
SetZ2Opt3
SetZ2Opt4
SetZ2ToMain


Only one has a parameter, which is AdjZ1Mode, which can be:

AdjZ1Mode inc
AdjZ1Mode dec

The rest you just pass the command name and that's it.

Thanks. I will give the driver a try as soon as the XMC-1 arrives.
