I just finished writing a new SIMPL macro and when I save it, I get a popup that shows "Problem Saving Program, Warnings Encountered". Clicking on "Show Details", displays an empty window (no details listed). The macro is saved properly in the "usermacro" directory and I can exit SIMPL and open the macro in the workspace and it all appears to be present. After the macro is opened, any other saves results in the same popup.

Any hints on what SIMPL doesn't like when I save this macro?

Thanks

"However well-intentioned, the posts suggesting downgrading?various (often unrelated)?software elements could potentially do more harm than good"

We're programmers, working with stuff where a single mis-capitalized letter can potentially throw off the better part of a day.

I didn't think your tone at calling out the mention of the totally incorrect software package was off base at all.

"Jus uploaded protocol sheet for the Sony's"

Thanks Stig - appreciate it.? I've actually had the protocol document for a while - I was just trying to find out if someone had written a module for this projector before I dove in and spent the time myself...

I'm running a 3 year old i5 with 16GB of RAM and an SSD, and typically have the same types of apps all open at once.? This is on Win7-64.

I just did a quick little test with 3 instances of SIMPL, VTP (with 2 panels open), Toolbox, URC, Lutron QS Designer, Photoshop CS5, Visio, Word, Excel, Outlook, iTunes, Steam, Chrome, and Firefox (with 53 tabs).

Firefox is the clear memory hog here (53 tabs will do that) with 1.4GB used, followed by iTunes at 900MB.? Overall I'm using 10GB of my 16GB of RAM, and CPU is idling at 4%.? Obviously, it also depends on the size of the projects you have loaded into those applications, and CPU would definitely spike if I tried to compile all 3 instances of SIMPL at the same time, but the point is 16GB has worked well for me, so 32GB should be more than plenty.

what are you PHONE COUNTRY setting?

Chip,

Thank you,

I am utilizing the IR outputs on the MC3 as one way serial. Does anyone know if those are TRS or TS?

Thank you,

On the topic of swapping on an i5 instead of the proposed i7; I built a rig last year only to realize that none of the Crestron software is multicore capable. Since the main difference between the i5 and i7 in multithreading and cache it really depends if you are running other programs in the backgrounds (I often run Virtual box so I can have VTP and D3P open at the same time). Depending on the budget I would get the fastest processor you can afford and overclock it, as clock speed is much more important that the extra "cores". However I would only get a 4 core processor . . don't step up to the 6 core beasts as I believe they all require DDR4 Ram + motherboards which dramatically increases the price/performance ratio (in our circumstances) . . .Also, I have 16GB of ram and never come close because VTP is 32bit and can only utilize the 4GB.

With all the small writes during compile i think the biggest performance boost I obtained was in my SSD (I have one of the PCI mounted ones that are substantially faster than conventional 2.4" drives) . . .However the i7 I have also has a larger Cache so it isn't a apples to apples comparison.

I picked up the cheapest graphics card that supported 4 monitors I could find on CL . . . some artifacts but works well for me . . $100 well spent.


just my 2c

anyone?
