Re: New iOS App?

 

Just one bad issue with the new app: the non-compatibility with ipad 1 version. everything else is great stuff -keep in mind we still are in beta kind of version-
great to have core 3 power on mac tablets.

On the pricing, the Microsoft comparison is a good one. They were dumbfounded when I told them we didn't charge for firmware updates or development tools! I do wish we had better options to get a version out to those of you actually developing the interfaces but the App Store can be quite limiting.

I agree, though I wish the app was universal iPhone/iPad, instead of a separate one for each.

You definitely need to set up DNS in your processor for the module to work.

Hi Chip

Where can I find the meaning of the values?

I'll look at the DNS settings.. the address etc is all built into the
module.. I think.

Cheers

You're not connected to the server (most likely) because your processor
is not set up properly to access a DNS server. Without that it can't
translate the address you supplied (or is built in to the module?) into
www.xxx.yyy.zzz...

Re: The extended ASCII codes in 3-series

Kool-Aid Drinker
 

If you look at the full headers or "source" of a 2-series email,
you'll see a Content-type: header with a specific char set.

Compare 3-series.

With no char set designated, a 3-series email is at the mercy of email
reading program, OS internationalization, etc. Results WILL vary.

Complain to True Blue. As the basis of the email sender, they used a
free C# library that was known to have issues, but didn't apply any of
the readily available fixes.

Re: Mobile Pro on iPhone 5

Andy
 

The graphics on Crestron's page for the new app appear (I haven't measured) to be the aspect of an iPhone 5. Plus the demo pages in the app fit my iPhone 5 whereas the demo on the old app does not. There's also a link to the GUI resource center that implies graphics available that don't seem to exist. With all of this one would be led to believe that they are at least thinking about it. But, who knows??

Quick one, the Mobile Pro app on the iPhone 5 doesn't fill the screen (gaps at top and bottom) - is this just a case of increasing the resolution in VTProE or does the app itself not fill the screen fully? Apps like eBay, Facebook, etc fill nicely from top to bottom!

Re: Crestron Simpl# and Sonos

 

Perhaps technically, certainly not logistically.

The entire reason we (ControlWorks) have not developed a module for Sonos is because both Sonos has not published a supported API and because Sonos has expressed that they wish to maintain full control over their user interface/user experience and do not want to be integrated.

When a vendor doesn't support an API -- and even more so when the vendor takes a "We don't want to be integrated" stance -- it becomes dangerous to integrate as any solutions need to be reverse engineered and have the potential to be broken at any time by way of a firmware update. If the vendor explicitly does not want to be integrated, the chances of something breaking raise significantly.

(see, for example, the recent posts on various weather modules no longer working until the code is tweaked -- incidentally, we have our own Weather Module which has >99.99% uptime & while features have been added, every version we've released still works)

Re: RTSP with tpmc-4smd

Brett,



We are using the new snapav WPS-750 ip cameras.



Ex. RTSP://IP ADDRESS/v2



The V2 designates the lower res video stream. I spoke to them Friday and
they gave a couple of other ideas which weren't in their manual. I'll let
you know how it turns out.

Re: Prowl for Crestron 3 Series is posted!

 

Hi,

I had trouble getting this SIMPL file to compile. It will compile, but then remove all the Prowl Client module's input, output and parameter signals. I eventually discovered that I had to change the Send digital input's name in the SIMPL+ file to something else as I assume SIMPL# used Send as a parameter. Now it's working great!

Thanks!!
