You can create your own remote control button layouts with XML files.
On how to do this, take a look at the tutorial at http://avrdroid.wordpress.com.
The app uses the Denon® control protocol. Protocol infos can be found at the official Denon® support/download pages.
FEATURES:
- Create your own button layouts which fits your needs (there is a built-in default layout)
- Switch between multiple layouts
- Save/Export/Import/Share XML layouts (via Mail, Dropbox, local file manager…)
- Commands/button labels can be edited in-App
- Chain commands like: “Increase volume by 5 steps” or “Power on -> select Preset 1 -> set volume to -30db”
- Different layout styles
- Simple shell-like interface to test commands
- Lock/unlock screen (keep screen on, lock orientation) with swipe up/down
Its best to use the app with a static ip address for the receiver since there is no automatic recognition. You have to set the ip address in the settings manually but therefore it is quite snappy.
The app uses INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions to connect to the receiver (when on WiFi only) and to store/manage XML layout files on local storage.
This is my first Android project so use on your own risk ;) . It is tested with the AVR-3312 model only, protocol commands must be adapted to your model eventually.
If you like this app, please leave a comment.
Send me bug reports, general feedback or feature requests via email or just share your layouts.
For XML serialization the Simple XML serialization open source library is used in this application.

Works better than the Denon app. Running on an emulator under Win 10. Found my receiver right away, super fast loading, big and clear GUI great for a touch screen.
Works perfect in Android 4.4.4 with Denon AVR-X1400H. Nice button modification options explained in your web. Thanks for your work.
The best remote for Denon on Android.
We are lucky there are som 3rd party applications available since Denon never seems to manage to release any remote applications (at least for Android) that can actually be used.
I was looking for a way to automate my home audio. This app works great with Tasker allowing me to send commands to my receiver based on pre programmed tasks such as turn on the music when I get home after work. The developer is quick to reply to questions. Keep up the great work!
Very nice app for people looking for customization...The build in templates are very complete already, but for those people that know there way around XML, having complete control over commands and layout is very nice indeed! I already rate it 5, but it would be nice to be able to use custom icons stored on (the SD card of) the phone...
Way beyond the use of the actual remote with tweaking and customization. Thank you! Be sure to read from authors link on the toggle mute button option.
Works perfectly and way better than competing apps. AVR-3312
Great app that works well, fast. Customizable and integration with Tasker.
Worked great for five mins after first install, but was messing with labels and then didn't see an option to "reset to dev install settings". Uninstalled, then reinstalled, now doesn't connect to my receiver...AVR S710W and ASUS RT-N56U.
Works great with my receiver. Nice job dev.
This app is incredible. It not only replaces the horribly broken Denon app, it also lets you do things that wouldn't be possible with the officisl one. In my case I wanted to make presets for a source, the selection of Front Speaker A or B, the state of the GEQ and the sound mode. It's super easy to write a matching XML, and it can be adapted anytime. The only thing I'm missing in this app is a Donate button.
