Status for 27-08-2022 - this is still not working for x2700h, home sees it as "device" without multimedia features. I use Chromecast as music source and home assistant as pilot for it... but it is advertised as working out of the box with google assistant - no, it is not.
So disappointing. Adopted the heos when I was renting. Now I've got a full distributed audio system in my new house, and i dont have the functionality I would have had if I just used crappy nest speakers. It's so underwhelming.
@@Luigy79 maybe thats by design, keeping Google products one step ahead, but to me its not worth the drop in sound quality, and financial cost to go away from the full heos system I already have
Well I found a way for it to sort of work, get music playing first on your google mini, then do what he says in the video and then say okay google, continue in "livingroom"
I've done all the steps but google home still says that it cannot find the living room tv and to make its connected to thr internet? My Denon Receiver isconnected to the internet.
It seems that I have a different issue than all of you. My AVR-S950H is not recognized as a speaker by GH and so nothing is possible to do then with GH. Tried to unlink and relink HEOS on GH a few time without any success. I bought this amp for specifically GH compatibility so I'm really thinking about bringing it back to the shop.
So far Denon has let me down hard. Their hardware is great, but their software is sub-par at best. In the HEOS app, it seems impossible to sort folders on my network drive in alphabetical order, which is hilariously frustrating. On the other hand, when you add an album to the playlist, the track order IS alphabetical, not in the order they should be by album track number. What the hell is up with that? And I for one wasn't able to get it working with Google assistant at all. Also, what's with indexing a maximum of 40'000 tracks, mentioned on the website? My Music archive is easily more than twice that large. HEOS sounded like a great idea when I bought it, but it feels very outdated software wise once you start using it. A shame really.
2 years on since your comment I don't think much has changed. I recently got 2 AVRs. The Denon app, the remote and general controls is very poor. But for the price the hardware is pretty good
Software integration with hardware like this is ALWAYS hot garbage. It's almost always poorly implemented/rolled out, they add a few features, patch a bunch of bugs, then they give up on it and obsolete it. It pisses me off. I have a WDTV box that Wester Digital completely gave up on. Can't add any new apps or services to it. I'm getting to the point where I'm losing interest in all this tech.
Is it also possible to add the Denon device to a Google Speaker Group? I just tried it with my Denon 150 speaker. The procedure you show here worked. However, it seems I can't add the speaker to a group with Google Home speakers. Can you confirm? If this does not work: Can we expect an update? When?
Unfortunately I'm still not able to play music on my Home Cinema HS1 through Google Home Mini or Assistant. Bluetooth adapter is setup properly (Spotify can directly stream to it as a BT device) on HC. The HC is listed as Home Cinema Bluetooth in HEOS app. In Google Home app HC is successfully added as the default speaker for playing music. Default service for playing music is set to Spotify. When requesting on the Mini or Assistant to play music on the HC, Assistant tells me music can be played anywhere except on this speaker 😩 Am I doing something wrong or are there limitations which limit functionality set by HEOS/Denon, Spotify or by Assistant? Also, why do I need a BT adapter for the HC being listed in Google Home? I would expect this to work through WiFi or ethernet connection directly, just like the rest of the stuff that works with the Mini and Assistant... Using these products in The Netherlands (EU), a solution on this will be very appreciated 🙂
I cannot get it to work on my denon AVR as well, everybody says you should connect it, and it should work. But it doesn't anything. (I also live in the Netherlands, maybe it is a problem in the Dutch google UI)
I have found a solution, it is a bit glitchy. You have to say. Resume on reciever name. Dutch: speel verder op ... ((naam versterker)). You can say to stop the music. But not have it start again.
Thanks for the video. Although the steps have changed somewhat, this helped me attach my Cinema 60 to Google- although voice control appears to be extremely limited. Was hoping for more...
I have a Denon S760H and I added it to my HEOS account and setup my Google Assistant Speaker to control the power on/off functionality of the receiver. That part is working fine. However I cannot play content on the receiver using my voice commands to control the google assistant. I get a device not found. What am I doing wrong?
Are those voice command automatically translated to other Google assistant supported languages or do I need to use English voice commands to control the receiver. I have exactly the same receiver but it doesn't work for me atm. I have added the receiver in Google home
Hey, i have trouble getting things to work correctly. I can turn my reciever on and off with assistant. i can also change volume. But i cant get it to play any music. google is telling me, he cant, but he can play it on another device. In this case my smartphone, wich is working fine. if i start playing music on spotify on the phone and telling google to continue playing music on the reciever, google says there is a unknown problem in the resiever. Is it that important to give the reciever the same name in heos as in google home the room name like u did? since i have a connetion in case of turning it on and changing the volume i cant imgagine.
I cannot control my x2600H by GH too. Receiver is set as an alarm in assistant app. No way to change this . Commands are not working. GH cannot find device or finding it randomly. Its a joke . Denon Please remove google assistant sticker from your product!
I have a denon heos 7, is there any way I can bring in chromecast feature into this by integrating any small device. Apart from spotify connect, want to use this device for playing music which streams via chromecast
Can't turn on and off the x1600h receiver, with assistant. It says ,,that device hasn't ben set up yet". Put quick select keys of avr on Google routines
Ok, please help! because I am about te return the reciever. I connected the receiver to googlle home but I can´t add it into a home group with more speakers. Like in the bedroom etc. I tought the reciever would see it as a speaker in google home but the it´s sees it as a device. So I can´t add it in a home group. I can use the google audio dongle to make it a smart speaker system which I did. Connected to phone outlet but the sound quality is rubbish then plus it´s old fashioned to do this. So, does anyone know how to add this device in a speaker group in google home?
I can tell google home devices to play music and then after it starts I can tell it to play on my heos receiver, and it works, but I cannot just say play music on the heos device in one step. Bugs in Google home
...I can change volume, it all works, but still cannot simply say it in one step. requires music to be playing on google device prior to transferring to heos
It worked for about a month on my AVR-S730H. Now Google home only controls the HEOS input (volume etc.). Will not control the volume on any other inputs.
Is possible control the volume when denon is in tv mode? I know control the volume the denon in modo bluethooth, i want to control the volume the tv sound that out in my denon using google home
Doesn't seem like I can tell it to start a song or stream, definitely can't cast from Google to heos. Prettyuch worthless if I can't tell it to play RUclips
@@DCUPtoejuice 2 step authentication but for playing music? Ridiculous indeed. Even these heos devices with "built in google assistant" are completely worthless for actual smart homes.
Is this going to be yet another Heos/Google scandal? First we were promised built in chromecsst and now Google assistant. Let see if Denon craps on us again 🙂
This works perfectly not. I am just looking for a way to start my heos speaker as an alarm clock to wake up. A shame, that there is no in app solution for this. I don't want to use the google assistant or alexa to control my speakers. Why can't you guys simply add a clock feature to the heos app itselfe?
What this video does not explain is that in order to play music in HEOS, it first needs to start playing elsewhere and then transfer to HEOS. They do explain this in the step by step set-up in their website. Once you tell your device "Continue playing in (HEOS device)" then it will switch the audio output. What a headache Denon...
@@MrHollow With all due respect to you sir... You are full of --it. This, or you are an Apple fanboi. Which even at that... I wouldn't have that big of a problem, with it. As I also had / have a sizeable iTunes library. Most of which I took over with me when I moved to Google. But, if you think RUclips, is going to replace GPM-S. I think you are sadly mistaken there pal. As I pretty much ONLY buy such music from that Store. So yes I would have had some small hope that these Music Stores would have had some representation here, and not just these stupid bloated streaming sites that offer nothing but a financial drain.
Or if your that, way inclined... And, for a time i was... the Apple iTMS. But, where's the ¥€$ for Denon to sell spots to? It's like that stupidly extra large Netflix button on my TV Remote, that I never asked for, and hardly ever use.

So disappointet!!!!! No applemusic, no alexa connection over bluetooth, no nesthub over bluetooth. How do i have to play music with heos over google nest hub??? No example nothing... hundreds of euros for nothing
Denon, please get your "stuff" together. Give us ankick@ssapp and functionality. Keep up with the customers who want to buy Denon because of sound quality. Heos app is prehistoric, functionalities missing. Even Denon's participation on social media is poor. You've got the hardware, please complete the picture and give customers what they need!
@@DenonOfficial hope you do! Everyone wants Denon sound, but also a app that is from this time. Denon can beat a lot of the competition by stepping up their game. Function of more complex stereo pairs on the Home series would be great as well. (for example putting a Home 250 and 350 in stereo pair). Or 2x150, 1x250 and 1x350 in advanced stereo pair. Also promote more on RUclips etc with good videos. That's where people search for speakers etc.
I’m a Deezer HiFi subscriber and thus far I cannot stream in HEOS app in no better than 320kbps MP3. Gotta use the Deezer App my iPhone and use AirPlay. It’s pointless to have a DENON AVR and a whole Denon environment with HEOS home speakers all over the house if I must stream in lame MP3 sound quality. No responses from DENON despite my contact attempts... Shame on you Denon
Cheap Chinese speakers have better control then Heos. What a shame for Denon! Living in EU, have English language on my android phone but still can't control these overpriced devices
Same here (the Netherlands). Every other device I've set up plays well with Assistant and Home Mini, but HEOS devices don't. Driving me mad sometimes. I don't think HEOS stuff is overpriced (different discussion anyway, although I paid 800 euro for it when I bought the Home Cinema). But if Denon is not going to make improvements on connectivity and integrations I'm going to switch to a different brand which does this job better.
Ok now for the 100$(USD), question. What if I were less inclined to use one of the most reassuringly expensive, or in the case of Sound Cloud, outrigh sh-- tier streaming services. As you have listed them, (The vast majority *THANKFULLY* of which are excluse to North Amaerica ONLY!). When might you suppose that I might be able to cast my Google Play Music Library, of purchased Albums to my AVR X2500H? Considering how gimped Spotify on this system is. At least I could cast it from my Shield TV. Apparently, that's not good enough here, and would require me to pay the toll to basicly do what I have always done up to this point. If you have to pimp out to these idiotic money leachers. Could you at least find one that streamed something of interest like proper multi channel DSD files? This to me probably would be worth 9.95$(USD), a month. But, I wish you would just allow us to use our Google Play Music Accounts on our Devices instead.
Status for 27-08-2022 - this is still not working for x2700h, home sees it as "device" without multimedia features. I use Chromecast as music source and home assistant as pilot for it... but it is advertised as working out of the box with google assistant - no, it is not.
Support for changing sources would be an excellent next step!
Bare minimum I would have expected. They have a remote control app, the ability to send every command to the receiver digitally exists.

I don't think HEOS stuff is overpriced (different discussion anyway, although I paid 800 euro for it when I bought the Home Cinema). But if Denon is not going to make improvements on connectivity and integrations I'm going to switch to a different brand which does this job better.
Same here. I bought denon device because of google home compatibility. Remove google assistant sticker from your devices !
False advertising all the way from the start. Big old asterisk next to smart home compatibility.
Ok
Ok now for the 100$(USD), question. What if I were less inclined to use one of the most reassuringly expensive, or in the case of Sound Cloud, outrigh sh-- tier streaming services. As you have listed them, (The vast majority *THANKFULLY* of which are excluse to North Amaerica ONLY!).
When might you suppose that I might be able to cast my Google Play Music Library, of purchased Albums to my AVR X2500H? Considering how gimped Spotify on this system is. At least I could cast it from my Shield TV. Apparently, that's not good enough here, and would require me to pay the toll to basicly do what I have always done up to this point.
If you have to pimp out to these idiotic money leachers. Could you at least find one that streamed something of interest like proper multi channel DSD files? This to me probably would be worth 9.95$(USD), a month.
But, I wish you would just allow us to use our Google Play Music Accounts on our Devices instead.
