Been a while since this thread started, any update?

I guess you need to ask the site owner when he will add this file to the files section of the site.
He is a busy man and runs this site by himself.

Mr Mod,
Thanks for the insight, definately understand busy...sent e-mail today. Was hoping I was just overlooking the file somewhere.

I've managed to wireshark and get connected to my BDP-S570, to send network command codes you need to register the remote with the player first (using a variant of uPNP), then commands are indeed sent to the player using SOAP.

I am a programmer for my company and i am comfortable with IR and RS-232 but I have been trying to learn how to write some IP commands into various devices that have ethernet ports but every search i have been on always ends the same way.... empty. can someone point me in the right direction.

Can't you just call someone at Sony and have them email them to you? Oh, wait, I forgot, this is Sony we are dealing with.

I would like to see the codes as well.

Are there any other BD's other than Oppo that support IP control? I know the Integra does, but the web features are limited and there is no 3d support.

The Sony IP commands were uploaded months ago to this site, they can be found here

Can you also tel us what port whe have to use?

I am a Programmer and mostly work with AMX systems. I would be curious if anyone has figured out how to calculate the Parity bit at the end of the string. Also, I am curious if you found a port. We will attempt to do a port scan to find it, there are a least three open ports though.

nobody info about the port?

I'm trying to get this going for Crestron control via IP, so far I can register the control system as a remote, but no success so far with commands (POST is hard).

Authentication port is 50002 for the BDP-S380

here's the command:

GET /?action=register&name=DeviceName&RegistrationType=initial&deviceId=MediaRemote:MA-CA-DD-RE-SS HTTP/1.1\nHost: Blu.Ray.IPA.DDR\n\n

remember to do this after you hit "start registration" on the player, or you'll get a 403:Forbidden

Commands are issued to port 50001, but I've not gotten the syntax right. Wireshark lists it as a POST followed by SOAP XML:

POST /upnp/control/IRCC HTTP/1.1\ncontent-type: text/xml; charset=utf-8\nsoapaction: "urn:schemas-sony-com:service :IRCC:1#X_SendIRCC"\nHost: Blu.Ray.IPA.DDR\nConnection: Keep-Alive\n\n

Followed by XML code I can't seem to post here.

I've used several of these. No netflix or bloatware, but very fast and reliable!

So...has anyone figured this out yet?

I was wondering about what the sequence was to register a uPnP control point with a Sony Blu-Ray player. It looks like you have captured the sequence. Could I get you to send me the sniffer file?

Longwinded message here, but I too am trying to control a Sony Blu-ray player over IP (mine is the Sony BDP-S780 model) but was having no luck whatsoever using the RS232-style IP command set that apparently works for the Sony BDP-CX7000ES Blu-ray Player. I have no problem using a very similar set of RS232-style commands over IP to control a similar Sony Receiver via its ethernet port, so I'm fairly convinced that the Sony BDP-S780 series just was not built to respond to the same command set.

BUT, since the Sony MediaRemote iPhone app successfully controls the BDP-S780 over IP, it was clear that there does exist another command set to control the BDP-S780 via its ethernet port. So, it was time to fire up Wireshark to once and for all fully flesh out how that app is sending commands to the BDP-S780.

After reviewing the results, indeed the BDP-S780 does respond to a UPnP control point as others have already pointed out. Unfortunately I don't yet know how to send these commands to the device inside of an AMX application. Anyone have code to do POSTS and GET commands from within a NetLinx application?

In the mean time, in case it helps others to send UPnP commands to a Sony Blu-ray player over IP, I am trying to upload a document containing what I believe is the command set which each must be imbedded in an xml file. Plus I've included actual example of various POST/GET commands that are used to do things like register a control point, send control commands, and request status updates from the Blu-ray player using TCP/IP. I will also post the contents of that file next in case the uploaded document does not get posted.

It appears that the ports involved on this model of the Blu-ray are Port 50002 for registration commands and status request commands, and port 52323 for control type commands.

Any help or insight on how to proceed to actually send these commands from my own app will be most appreciated!
