Re: CCD Samsung QLED can't connect
I made a small GUI program that parses the information from a CCD and makes it easier to read. It takes either the zip file or the pkg file and shows the most useful pieces of information in a table view instead of just a JSON file. It also displays the JSON, if you wanted to see the rest of the data without going through all the unzipping stuff. For anyone who is interested, it's on GitHub at (there's a "release" just so there's a downloadable executable if you don't want to compile the project).

Re: NAX with NVX AES67 stream issues
I've had these problems in the past.? There are always one of two problems, network configuration and streaming port settings.
If you check the "Device is Master PTP Clock Source" and all NAX say yes, then it is a network issue.?
For the port issue, I have manually set the NAX port on all NVX devices to port 5004.? The NAX doesn't like changing ports for some reason.? I have witnessed all zones on a single NAX stop working when any zone changes streams with a different port.? The only way to get audio working again is to clear all stream (enter 0.0.0.0 in stream address) then resend the address.? After manually matching all port values, the problem goes away.

NAX with NVX AES67 stream issues
Am I the only one having loads of trouble (Rx streams stuck on "Connecting") lately? Weh ave lots of NAX jobs where we only have audio from NAX 1 or 2 or even 3, but now we are starting to use the AES67 stream output of NVX cards and having loads of problems.
Crestron Support has come back with loads of things to try that don't help:
-re-send the Port[5004] every time you switch streams
-Stop, change stream, then start stream
-change port 4570 for Video sources and 5004 for Audio sources
-update all your firmware
-use our Crestron (Netgear 4250 switch)
-etc, etc
These amps just seem to get stuck and rebooting amp/s might get things working for a few hours or days. but it stops again. Switching from NAX stream to NAX stream will be fine, but then you switch a NVX AES67 stream and things either stick on connecting or you might get sound, but then when you go back to NAX audio you have no sound. its variable and frustrating.
Anyone found the secret sauce and care to share? Anyone else doing this with Simpl and having success?

Re: CCD Samsung QLED can't connect
Use 7zip to open the archive and open the day in notepad++. Look for the user attributes and follow them. Alternatively you can set the program to load the driver and send the user attributes to serial joins and send them to a msp. Then in toolbox read the strings.
It will tell you per display what needs to be done to connect.
Cheers

i also notice that he QN90 is not on the list in the CCD driver file
i hope it isn't different than all the other QLEDs

Topics in Home Automation - New Article in Residential Tech Today
My latest article, "How the MeatStick 4X Grilling Thermometer Improves on Its Predecessor¡± is being published by the good folks at Residential Tech Today Magazine on their web site.
After a long winter, summer is the season for BBQ and grilling. Unfortunately, not everyone is an award winning pit master.? The new MeatStick 4X is the next generation in grilling thermometers and can help even amateur outdoor chefs cook great food on their grill, in their smoker, and more.? This article provides a full review of the new MeatStick 4X.
You can find the article here:
For those interested in earlier articles that I've written, you can find those here:
Finally, for those that want to see even more content I've written about smart home technology you can find that here:

Re: TSW-760 - The server that the application is connecting to is unverified
I know that Amazon have been making various changes.
From the URL it can be seen that this is coming from an https, so don't know if that changed recently.

Re: CCD Samsung QLED can't connect
The ccd driver documentation should specifically mention that wireless control is. It supported exactly because the control is too slow and unreliable. At no time ever use the wireless connection for a Samsung IP driver.

?From my experience, Samsung IP control, ESPECIALLY if using Wi-Fi, is unreliable and should be avoided.
I can't tell if those messages are coming from the processor's Error Log, or the CCD module's Log output. The latter usually contains important clues when it's not working. I always give it a real signal name and connect it to an MSP, so I can watch it in Debugger.
Also, some Samsung TVs use port 1515, and others use 1516. Although the .dat file will specify the port to use, if your exact TV model isn't listed in its list of supported models, it could be different.

Re: CCD Samsung QLED can't connect
The CCD should request a new token if it gets an invalid response. You should see it display it again. If it isn¡¯t the handler for the token is in the json that defines the driver and can be edited as needed.

Re: TSW-760 - The server that the application is connecting to is unverified
I don't remember the details of a thing that I saw/heard about over the last month, but I think that something changed with Amazon Music. At least, relating to cloud storage of music, but maybe their server path changed

Re: Streamer recommendations
I think that the MMS-1e (add add'l as needed for more independent players) is the way to go. Add their Advanced Music Bridge (AMB) if you want/need Apple Music.
You can Airplay to it. and they have all the streaming services (that matter)
I think that Bluesound does not have all the services, which may not be an issue with what you're looking at.
Integration is solid.?
I'm pretty much done with Sonos. They come with too much baggage and the Crestron integration (communications) is 50/50

Re: Elusive Cisco Room Devices 4.0
Does this work with OS10?

Thanks, guys.
It's not (yet) my system so Hydrogen and EnableFeature stuff was likely not turned off, so this might explain it...
I always turn this crap off by default...
We don't have the original source code, so I wanted to sort of rule out the possibility that its some specialized code. Probably not since it is just controlling TStats and a security system, from 5-6 years ago...
Thanks!!

Based on how it's worded it means whatever payload this method/function was trying to retrieve came back with a Null (nothing). Who knows why. Unless it was specifically documented, which is rarely ever done for things like this, even for the programmer who wrote the code they may have to look at it again to figure it out after the fact.? It would be a monumental effort to document every notice/warning thrown in a program and make it readable/understandable without context. Most of those types errors need to be fixed in the code (at one end or the other) and would require an update and likely not something tech support would be in position to assist with.
What I would find helpful is when bugs or things like this are reported that they're actually tracked and we have some involvement in or understanding of the status, if it's being looked into, has been fixed, won't be fixed etc. Online help really doesn't cut it for this.
