What can the virtual remote control?

The Main Remote has a command bar (Power, Info, Setup, Option, Back), a D-pad, transport controls and a volume bar, with a live header showing the input, sound mode and the IN/OUT channels in use. A System page exposes direct controls like HDMI output, dimmer, triggers, ECO, sleep timer, CEC and more - anything your receiver doesn't support is hidden.

Q: Can I rename and reorder my receiver's inputs?

Yes. In AVR Maestro you can rename inputs (for example to Nvidia Shield, Xbox, PS5) and drag to reorder them. Open the Source widget on the Dashboard, long-press a tile to enter edit mode, drag to reorder, and tap Done. The order saves per receiver everywhere in the app.

Full D-pad and transport control with a live header that shows the input, sound mode, and the actual channels in use - so you always know what your Denon or Marantz is doing. Four pages: swipe or tap the page tabs.
