Re: http command works when sent from a browser but not when sent from a Crestron system
I have been messing with some HTTP stuff recently myself.? I've found the best thing is to run wireshark on the system with the browser and see what the traffic back and forth looks like.? In my case the device was doing digest authentication, which is impossible to deal with without S#.

Has Anyone controlled an (Australian) Foxtel Now Box over IP?
I am doing a residential and they are using Foxtel Now, the streaming service and have 2 of the dwt765fxt boxes. It looks like they are a repurposed google box.
I would like to get better control of it that IR (a 14 button remote) so was wondering if any one has an API for it? Any help appreciated. |
http command works when sent from a browser but not when sent from a Crestron system
I'm working with someone in England helping them to control their Hunter Hydrawise irrigation system that is connected to a Hubitat Elevation hub from a Crestron system.? Most of the commands being sent to the Hubitat to control the Hydrawise work fine.? Such as:
[Hubitat IP Address]/apps/api/20/devices/100/open?access_token=[Access Token] However, I'm having problems with the suspendZone command; which takes a date in the format of yyyy-mm-dd.? The Hydrawise will suspend watering until that date. The format of the command ends up being: [Hubitat IP Address]/apps/api/20/devices/100/suspendZone/2021-12-31?access_token=[Access Token] The strange part is when the person I'm working with sends this particular command from a browser to their Hubitat to control their Hydrawise system they are telling me it works fine.. However, when sent from a Crestron processor to their hubitat they are reporting they get the following error: HttpException: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found I've looked at the differences between if the command is sent from a browser to webhooks.site and when the url is sent from a Crestron system to webhooks.site.? I'm not seeing anything that jumps out at me that would stop this from working. When sent from the Crestron system I'm not setting any http header info. The browser, on the other hand sets the following: |connection|close| |---|---| |sec-gpc|1| |accept-language|en-US,en;q=0.9| |accept-encoding|gzip, deflate| |accept|text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.9| |user-agent|Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/92.0.4515.107 Safari/537.36| |upgrade-insecure-requests|1| |dnt|1| |cache-control|max-age=0| |host|webhook.site| |content-length|| |content-type|| Any ideas on what could be different that would keep the Hubitat command from being accepted when sent from the Crestron system would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help Jay |

Thanks everyone for the ideas.

It looks like VMK-WIN will do what I need and be the simplest to implement, so I'll start with that. --- On Saturday, July 31, 2021 at 1:49 PM, Geoffrey Reynolds wrote: |
Re: Question: Easy way to convert a Crestron Mobile to Crestron App project??
Thanks Zac,
Yes, I missed the Convert to Smart Graphics Button in VTP - After a couple tries, it actually worked pretty good I think. All the text is microscopic, so there's some work to be done there, but overall it's not terrible, at least not like starting from scratch!! We're still going to discuss a re-write, but this give me a good option - Thanks for all the quick responses!! |
Re: closing an X-Panel
It makes far more sense to use something like EventGhost or MCEController rather than reinventing the wheel.? Both of these can respond to commands via TCP from the Crestron controller and issue whatever command you need to close an app or kill the process (much cleaner to close the window; killing a process should be more of a last resort).

Re: closing an X-Panel
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYou could write a server program on your machine running the xpanel ?that works over tcp and when you send the command it closes the xpanel.On Jul 31, 2021, at 12:16 PM, Steve Kuehn <steve@...> wrote:

Re: Question: Easy way to convert a Crestron Mobile to Crestron App project??
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýCrestron Mobile is the old style of panel and Crestron App is smart graphics. They are not compatible. You will have to make a new panel and design it to emulate the old panel.On Jul 31, 2021, at 12:11 PM, ckangis <chris@...> wrote:

Re: Simpl compiled zipped file is missing sgd
Is it possible this is happening when the original SGD files were kept in different directory locations?? I know I've had issues with SIMPL complaining if I move around my vtp files when I'm working on them (like when the file names get too long and I have to move to a temp directory), SIMPL may be looking for the SGD files in that original location and can't find them (even though they were pulled into the archive, and they now live in the local directory)?? Is that what's happening when the archive/unarchive process is happening?

Re: Question: Easy way to convert a Crestron Mobile to Crestron App project??
There is a way to do it but the result not be anywhere close to what you had and it would only work for smaller projects.? I tried it on one of my larger Crestron Mobile projects and it quickly mushroomed to a file over 30x larger and very quickly crashed my windows machine. At 700mB, you will get an allocation memory error. If that happens, delete unused graphics and delete commented out pages. When project size gets down to 248MB, you will no longer get allocation errors. Plus no Anchor points in Smart Graphics.
So the short answer is no.? You will be better off starting from scratch. |
Re: closing an X-Panel
I don't know a reserved join but if Xpanel is running on static Windows machine, you can achieve it by other means.?
For example, tcp/ip connection to EventGhost, MCE-controller, or even Crestron's own windows keyboard/mouse emulation (send Alt+F4 or start a script that kills specific task). |
closing an X-Panel
Does anyone know of a Reserved Join that will close an X-Panel, or a way to do
it from Simpl? I need a button on an X-Panel running in Kiosk Mode that can be used to close it. Join 17242 (Enter Setup) works on touchpanels and mobile apps, but doesn't work on an X-Panel. Thanks in advance. |
Re: Simpl compiled zipped file is missing sgd
I opened a ticket for this issue back on 7/23 (210723-000385) thinking it was just me.? Then I started receiving archives from co-workers missing them as well.? The problem follows the program, not the development environment. Per tech support, it seems to only happen when the program contains crosspoints.
