? One of the other programmers where I work will no longer program in Studio because of the bugs, limitations, and stability issues.? In particular, he says trying to go back and make a minor change in the system at some later date usually lands up corrupting the program were you have to rebuild the system from scratch.? He has since learn to program in SIMPL and much prefers that over studio.

At least with System Builder, you could fix bugs by opening it in SIMPL and make a patch.? But at that point, you could never use System Builder again.? But it was a reasonable thing to do with old systems to get them running again.? That isn't possible with Studio.?

I myself have never programmed in Studio although I have be called in several times to figure out some bizarre issues.? In the end, they all appeared to be bugs with no easy fix.

By like someone else said, Studio is pretty much end of life now.? I would stay clear of it.

So I've been poking around studio for a bit lately. And was wondering if it was a good alternative to using simpl and vtpro. I am fairly new to the whole Crestron ecosystem of tools and would love some advice.

I could be wrong but I do not think studio can replace vtpro. It can be used to create or edit themes but they would still need to be imported and programmed in vtpro.

How did you manage to clone the drive and is their any reason why it not
possible to put a bigger (2tb) drive in.
Thinking of doing the same on an only unit

I wouldn't count on any updates from Snap. My MMS-2A went belly up and when
I called them they said the device was now obsolete and they wouldn't do
any sort of repair work on it.

I know it's getting old but 2 grand and they won't help? All righty then.
It actually worked out for the best though. With nothing to lose I pulled
the drive and actually managed to restore it with registry backup files on
the drive itself. So I cloned it then put in a new 1T SSD and now have a
nicer unit with no need for a NAS or USB drive to have enough storage.
While I was at it I doubled the RAM in it from 2g to 4g with some old
laptop memory sticks I had laying around and now it seems a bit quicker
to index.

And FWIW, even though the iPad app is kinda crappy that should still work.
Also, the iPad app for the McIntosh MS500 streamer will work since that's
just a Mirage with some fancier internals.

I don't know how their Windows app works but it seems like it should keep

going since there's no browser involved. The setup pages are just straight
HTML so they should just keep working no matter what.

I liked Autonomics more before Snap snapped 'em up...

Yes, Geoff, that’s what I meant.

The trick will be figuring out which button Crestron Home has mapped to the TV/Home button, if any. ?I haven’t found one yet.

Chris,

I assume he means forcing the app to close, pretty much just as you would on an iPhone or iPad when you run into an app that's in a bad state:

Hey Kevin!!
How you doing?? We really should connect, being neighbors and all!!? I'll send you an email

But for the general audience, What's the secret to rebooting the Disney+ app??? the only thing that I can see to do is log out and back in again - Is there another secret that I'm missing?

TIA!!

As Steve said, -R model processors are constrained to run OS3 only. ?You can’t run any other programs (SIMPL or S#Pro) in the same device. ?You can trigger events on a separate processor though.
