Agreed! I have a Ra2 site that this has happened to me 2-3 times.? I'm currently chalking it up to the dealer not yet heeding my warning about closing all port forwards...? ?Note: if you have port forwards - delete them....

Hi all,

I am pretty confused with finding out the exact difference between the Crestron fusion and the Xio cloud features, like where exactly I use the Crestron fusion services or the Xio cloud services. Could anyone you guys can through some point regarding the exact usage of the Crestron Fusion and the Xio cloud services.

Basically I have a system with around 30 conference rooms with (DM-NVX, mercury, TSW panels, soundbars, TST-902, AV3, Wireless gateways, etc) I need to find a platform to easily configure them when deploying them and then closely monitor and provide support to the clients if required.

Here for my situation which flatform would be the best solution?
Any suggestions are welcome.

Yes to echo Dragula (no pun intended) every site I have it integrated including my own home, it is very solid. One you get hang of using the proper invocation commands and it learns you, it just plain works. And using Alexa Routines makes it even easier to develop custom commands without any Simpl changes. Its much easier to walk into a room and issue commands to turn things on/off without having to grab an ipad/phone/remote or walk over to a touch panel.?

I have seen from time to time where a processor becomes unregistered with the Amazon services after 6-12 months, and a reboot gets it back up and running.?

Streaming video with Crestron is problematic on IOS or even touch panels.? It's either slow to show or doesn't at all.? I have given up and we have started using ZoneMinder on a PC to transcode the streams to mjpeg, which is really the only stream Crestron likes.? Now video comes up instantly and reliably.? I'm sure there are other methods out there.? ZM installs in Linux and requires a little Linux knowledge, but the documentation is really good.

We have 5 dots throughout our house using the Alexa/Crestron skill to control switching, display/room on/off, lighting throughout the house, etc and it works nearly perfectly.? I'd say a 2-5% failure on Crestron skill related commands. We've grown so accustomed to it now I think we'd be lost without it. I don't see much of an application commercially, but residential for sure.?

I ditched Alexa in my home for the same reason.? It's just got progressively worse and worse.? I think the voice control fad will go the way of the 3d TV fad.?

Does anyone know the following:

1) How many channels of audio on Dante will it transmit?
2) How many channels of audio on Dante will it receive?
3) Will it transmit and receive Dante simultaneously?
4) When transmitting Dante, what sources can it transmit (HDMI 1, HDMI 2, Analog Audio, primary/2nd stream (when in in decode mode))?
5) If receiving Dante, it can be routed to: HDMI Out, Analog Out, Primary/2nd stream (when in encode mode)?

Thanks,

Thanks, Everyone!!

When Amazon/Crestron released their module, I installed it into my own home as I had Echos and Dots everywhere - it worked fine. Over the last year or longer, I have noticed Alexa does not respond as she did when the Skill was first released. She does not always recognize rooms and such and at times is unresponsive.

Has anyone experienced the same issues with the Alexa/Crestron Skill or is it just me. I built out a room at a University, everything works great, except the same issues, Alexa gets commands right about 30% of the time. And it is the same command.

Any insight any programmers could share would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

?

we are testing a lecture capture system with a Capture-HD Pro and a TTC08-02 Cisco SDI camera (new version) at the moment. It should be a quick streaming solution for a cancelled event.

?

The latest firmware was installed to the CHD and we are using the example program (QM-RMC + Capture-HD) in stand-alone-mode without fusion.

?

The problem is that the USB recording of content and camera input is not working. The confidence screen is black as well.

?

The cisco camera has been tested in AUTO-mode, 1080p/30 and 720p/30 resolution. The simultanious HDMI output works at a Vaddio AV Bridge without issues.

?

Tested and working functions:

-???????HDMI Input -> HDMI Output (content mode)

-???????VGA Input -> HDMI Output (content mode)

-???????VGA input -> VGA output (loop out)

-???????USB recording AUDIO ONLY (.ts file, VLC player)

-???????The content input and the SDI-input are displayed as ?detected“ in the program.

?

Not working functions:

-???????HDMI output in confidence mode (black screen) for several PIP-combinations and VGA and HDMI content input. SDI camera connected and disconnected, HDMI source connected and disconnected – tested in several SDI/HDMI combinations.

-???????USB picture recording (720p/30 and 1080p/30) – The audio signal has been recorded. Same setup as described fort he confidence output.

?

Now I am wondering if I have a broken device or if I made a mistake setting up the devices. I heard that there are some issues with the Capture HD in general.

?

?

Thank you in advance!

Regards

Peter

Has anyone played with this to get it working with Crestron serial? I have not had success as of yet.

If you are using the Blue App, it does still work but if Apple breaks the App with a iOS update, Crestron may not fix it.? The Silver app is a newer version that uses Smart Graphics.? But even the Silver app can be broken by a iOS update however it is likely Crestron will come up with an update if it does.? The main concern I have with the Silver App and Smart Graphics is it is flash based and everybody is discontinuing support and even in some cases blocking it.

In your case, since you are using the Blue App and loaded the project to the RMC3, you want to set the following in the App Setup (assuming you used the defaults in your SIMPL program).
use local file: NO
Friendly Name:? [Anything you want here]
IP Address: [key in the IP address of your RMC3 here -- e.g. something like 192.168.1.200]
HTTP: 80
Port A: 41790 [this is the default but can be changed in SIMPL at the symbol at IPID-05]
Port B: [leave this blank in most cases]
Password: [this is the pass code that you keyed into the symbol at IPID-05).
Don't mess with the Advance tab for now.

Make sure that you don't have SSL enabled on your processor -- at least to begin with.? Once you get things working, you can experiment with SSL.

Note the free Blue App is limited to just a few pages.? So when you make your? project in VTPRO, select Panel Type: "Crestron Mobile for Phones".? Do not used the PRO version as the free App will not work with it.

Good luck,
Steve

Thanks, that did it. I just ignored what was so obvious.
