TPMC V-15 panel DNS lookup fails
Good morning,
Have a strange issue with TPMC-V15 panel. The DNS lookup always fails. PRO2 on the same subnet always works through the same router.
V15 returns this message:
¡®www.lg.com¡¯ found at error: unknown command TPMC-v15>
Any ideas of things to check?

If I remember correctly, you have to login through the onscreen menu before it works. The module I got from ICRealtime did not control the PTZ very well. Unless you need to recall presets on a PTZ I would see if IR does everything you need. -Russell On May 17, 2013, at 10:20 AM, "gregevans32" <greg@...> wrote: Has anyone had any luck getting the IC Realtime module that is posted to work?

Re: EISC and Touchpanel question
I believe that the panel connection would be impacted more than the EISC. Touchpanels (and other crestron devices) use additional packet types and protocols not needed for intersystem communications.
The extent of such performance difference, if any, I couldn¡¯t say. Will leave that to others who may be more familiar with the lower level operations.

Re: Simpl + Change Analog
+1 for what Jason just said. I would add that you should also confirm that there is nothing in MAIN that would alter output values at program start.

Have a issue that has me stumped. using the below
Change Analog_in { Print("Analog_in %d \n",Analog_in); Level$ = IToHex(Analog_In); }
When program initializes it enters this module and outputs unwanted code eg sets hex levels to 0. (turns off amp's) Is there a way to

this happening?
my only way of fixing this currently is to do a feedback loop eg

Re: Streaming Live Audio and Video to a TPMC8XG
Pretty much any IP camera will stream video in MJPEG to the touch panel. "With audio" might be a little different/harder. Barix Streaming devices have been used for Intercom with it. On the TPMC-8X, the MJPEG app and SIP apps are separate. I've heard of sending cameras and audio to the camera, but not at the same time. You might have to use the Windows Media Player App (only 50% sure this exists), or IE. Chris On May 17, 2013 8:06 AM, "theb52sfan" <theb52sfan@...> wrote: **

Re: Question to the Core3 Experts
I also have been waiting for this, for an eternity. I know that it's 'coming'...
Here's a workaround that a TB guys suggested that seems plausible for smaller lists: 1. Create a scrolling list with max size 2. set your serial joins# for each item, FB logic etc. 3. programatically you can 'SIZE' the list down from the MAX value set in VTPro
It's not perfect but it seems to work well. Only downside is that you have a MAX for the list that, over time, may be too small. Although I just tried to set the list to 500 items and it accepted it. I don't know how it would perform but this is promising...
HTH, Chris K.....:)

My hope was it was going to make many things easier, and doable without multiple work arounds. At first glance it looks pretty good, we now have button modes and gestures to use on mobile.
The one key thing I was looking for was a simple way to create flexible scrolling lists. My wish list isn't huge, I'd like to programmatically define the number of items, give each one a serial text join, plus an analog join for an icon or mode.
Hopefully someone out there will tell me after Crestron has worked on this for the past three years and learned from the DNav 'limitations' that they now have made this possible but I'm just to simple to find the right list or secret to CED object to make it work.

Have a issue that has me stumped. using the below
Change Analog_in { Print("Analog_in %d \n",Analog_in); Level$ = IToHex(Analog_In); }
When program initializes it enters this module and outputs unwanted code eg sets hex levels to 0. (turns off amp's) Is there a way to stop this happening?
my only way of fixing this currently is to do a feedback loop eg
Change Analog_in { Print("Analog_in %d \n",Analog_in); if (Analog_in <> Current_Level) { Level$ = IToHex(Analog_In); } }

Thanks for all the input. My application is a small city govt that has to record meetings.
They occasionally have laptop presentations that would need to appear on the recordings. Does this aspect of the system work well? My idea is to have the secretary control the system via a touch panel. He/she would be responsible for actuating then PC input as needed.
Is this a reasonable application for this product?
Thanks again.

The main issue I have with it is you cannot playback from it. If that feature could be added it would be a lot better. Easy to control. Setting up the IPT/z or whatever part # that sony camera is, sucks if you go by the manual. I had to download some sony software to set it up so I could set up the stream to the panels. my .01

It's stupid easy to program basic functionality, though some aspects require more reading of the tea leaves in the help file than I'd like but for your first time there's enough to build a framework that gets you to a point where you don't waste much time onsite.
Setting a static IP via the front panel is a PITA until you realize that DHCP (completely different menu) has to be turned off for before a static IP will "stick" & the one time I tried using one in "Streaming" mode (I had some time to kill on a jobsite) I don't recall it working well, again that was only one time, and every CaptureHD I've done has been used in "Record" mode/as a VCR replacement -- e.g. user plugs their USB drive in, hits record, at end of meeting hits stop and take the drive with them.
Using a composite video camera input in the 2010s feels dirty to me and, it seems, most of my clients as well. As a result, every CaptureHD I've deployed has been the CaptureHD Pro (which accepts Composite or HD-SDI camera inputs; about 75% of them are using HD-SDI now, the remainder for future resistance) but I assume the differences between the two are not that great aside from that.
HTH,
Lincoln
