v7.13.0

What's Changed

Note that there seems to be an issue with the new Direct mode not working properly.
The switch does not stay in the On position after switching it. It would help to get some more feedback on the new Direct switch. If your receiver supports the new Direct switch it would be appreciated if you could turn it on, wait a 5 seconds and turn it off again. Then download the diagnostics and post them in this discussion.

There is no impact on other functionality

• Add switch for Direct mode (e.g. for RX-V473)
• Update README.md, reorganize working models section

v7.10.0

NOTE:
Minimum supported Home Assistant version is now 2024.7.0

NOTE:
This release contains updates for some deprecated under the hood functionality that will get removed in Home Assistant 2024.9.
So update to Yamaha (YNCA) 7.10.0 or greater before updating to Home Assistant 2024.9 to avoid issues.

What's Changed

• Bump minimum supported Home Assistant version to 2024.7.0
• Fix HDMIOUT handling for some receivers like RX-V671. See below for more details.
• Fix warnings by Home Assistant about "Detected that custom integration 'yamaha_ynca' sets "xyz" directly to update a config entry"
• Implement Reconfigure to change IP address/serial port configuration. This replaces the DIY reauth workaround that was implemented before.
• Don't hide Remote entity by default on new installations
• Misc updates to README.md

Under the hood

• Register services in async setup
• Store runtime data inside config entry

Fix HDMIOUT handling details

For some receivers (like RX-V671) which have 1 HDMIOUT port and support the command to enable/disable it would be handled as 2 HDMIOUT ports. This resulted in a Select entity with options OFF, OUT1, OUT2, OUT1 + OUT2 which does not work with 1 HDMIOUT port.

This releases fixes that behavior by having an HDMIOUT Switch entity to enable/disable the single HDMIOUT.

This specific command to enable/disable HDMIOUT ports had only been seen on receivers with multiple HDMIOUT ports before, so the value to enable/disable a single HDMIOUT was therefore never seen before. Until it was reported as an issue #297

Other receivers that have multiple HDMIOUT ports or do not support the command to enable/disable HDMIOUT were not impacted and no action is required for those.

The old Select entity will not be provided anymore by the integration and has to be removed manually.
It can be removed by clicking on the HDMIOUT Select entity, then the cogwheel for the settings. Home Assistant will indicate in the dialog that the entity is not provided anymore by the integration. Press the Delete button to delete it.
