Has anyone any details on the API / protocols which Devialet use for control and streaming?
I'm interested in developing a couple of apps but all I can find is RS232 specs.
Obviously not UPnP and doesn't appear to be running a standard discovery protocol. I guess I could fire up WireShark but official documentation would be more preferable.

As my Mac Mini is next to my Devialet a simple USB/RS232 converter would handle that.
I was more thinking along the lines of:
* Windows Phone control point
* HTML5 control point
* Multi Room Sync
* Integration into third party solutions
That sort of thing,
Cheers,

As Mka says Devialet is probably not going to release details on the AIR protocol. They have written code for Android and iOS, maybe you could find something there. Otherwise WireShark is your best bet..
I'd love to see a Linux AIR driver!

No luck with AIR yet, but I'm getting somewhere with the (read-only) basic remote control facilities. Will update when I've got something a little tidier.
WireShark is OK for UDP but ended up writing my own stuff (Python is your friend)

I've been trying to understand the AIR protocol using a network packet analyser, and have made some (small) progress with it. There are a couple more things I'd like to discover, after which I'll post my initial findings.
If anyone is interested in working on this together, please let me know.

That makes sense. I looks like streaming (AIR) and control and pretty much isolated If we can get the details of both documented then we should be in a position to move forward.
