Re: Issues with Crestron Home on Android?

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Did he sign up to be a beta tester when he downloaded the app?? It will say "Crestron Home (Beta)" at the top on the Play Store app page.? I am curious.

I am, I feel your pain, and the last app update broke room feedback, C2N amp controls, audio on but no video when amp is a C2N, and yes various syncing.? Then latest firmware made a few things worse. Then the iOS update plus last firmware created similar issues BUT are less frequent to show up.? iPad seems to be ok.? On Android as soon as the new DoNotDisturb feature showed up the issues started. Yay an alarm bell I can't turn off in settings. Who asked for this?! JK great feature if tested thoroughly...

Please report to TB. I am sure you will get my favorite reply "no one else is experiencing these issues, check the non-Crestron devices and do all the updates and power cycle the router and any network switches..."

Subject: [crestron] Issues with Crestron Home on Android?

I have a tech with an Android phone, and for the past couple Home projects he has been on, his device isn't syncing with the CP4R to get proper room status.? He gets a message at the bottom of the app that says "Your home is busy, please standby" and then his UI doesn't show the correct zone status for music, or the correct status of lights in the house.

Users with iOS devices don't seem to have any issues.? I thought maybe it was just his device, but now a second tech on the same job had the issue today with a second Android device.

CP4R is running the latest release 3.007.0071, and one of the phones is running Android v11, not sure about the other one.

Anyone else experiencing issues with Crestron Home showing correct status on Android devices?

You can still deserialize to the type you want without having to create another class by selecting the internal object.

var acStateObject = JObject.Parse(inputJson);
JToken acStateToken = acStateObject["acState"];
return acStateToken?.ToObject<acState>();

By the way, you really should be using proper C# naming conventions. This is why the Newtonsoft library has attribute classes that allow you to specify how the JSON keys are named, so that you don't need to name the identifiers in the same way.

Yes, yes, very true!

er, you mean 'WAS FOR', Brian...

Ahh, I neglected to say you will need to re-enter the CDS authentication credentials after updating the firmware.

Re: Authorization for Connections

 

I had tried upgrading one of the TSR remotes to the latest firmware (tsr-310_2.001.0095.001).
However, it still wouldn't connect.? It wasn't until I set the user level higher that it would connect.

As per TB support, user is no longer sufficient for hosted projects.
They said that this will be the case for all future updates, and at least operator level is required.
I'm used to setting all my Crestron devices at connects level and iOS devices at user, but they said the latest updates changed that for hosted projects.

It's just frustrating how much it seems that we end up being the beta testers for Crestron updates lately.
Isn't that what "Labs" is for???


Re: Authorization for Connections

 

Turns out this was a bug in the setcsconnection command itself.?

It was fixed in 2.001.0079.

Access level of user should be sufficient for hosted projects and connect should be sufficient for non-hosted.


Re: S+ Delegates

 
Edited

It really sounds like what you're looking for is a pub/sub implementation for your S+ module instances. Doing this in S+ is not the right way to approach this... If you use RegisterDelegate() with a singleton instance or a static class member then it won't work anyways because your delegate will be overwritten. You'd have to use events in that case.

In our SIMPL# Fundamentals course, we cover a very basic pub/sub implementation:?

pulled from the App Manifest, and is intended to disable Sonos S1 functionality for CH x60s (since CH req's S2).

pulled from the Sonos App Manifest, and is intended to enable Sonos S1 functionality for SG x60s.

VER -V should confirm which version is currently installed on the panel.

APPMODE and INTERNALMANIFESTURL should confirm which mode the panel is in, and which version will be pulled down by APPUPDATE SONOS.


Re: VTPRO iPad to VTPRO Smart Graphics iPad

 

I agree with Matt, even though the whole thing is mucho painful!...
I tried years ago to use the update capability and it was mostly hash...

OL,
"a panel that had been updated for Crestron Home and then returned to standard Crestron service

I think that you probably have some of that greasy CH sauce still in the panel...:)

FYI, I checked on one of my 760/S1 panels running a slightly older FW and no Auth. Update stays on v10.6.2, even after a reboot:

Re: VTPRO iPad to VTPRO Smart Graphics iPad

 

It can, but the project becomes very bloated and you will have to go back and fix a few things depending on the design.

I find it less time consuming to rebuild it from scratch in smart graphics and make it look like the old design.


Re: TSW xx60 Panels & Sonos App #sonos #tsw

 

Sonos App versions:
=> 9.0.1 - working => updated (appupdate sonos) => 10.6.2 - still working

but a panel that had been updated for Crestron Home and then returned to standard Crestron service
=> 10.6.99 - not working

Both on the latest Crestron TSW-1060 (3.001.0026) firmware.


Re: TSW xx60 Panels & Sonos App #sonos #tsw

Re: TSW xx60 Panels & Sonos App #sonos #tsw

 

You need to update the sonos app as the latest version is never in the firmware. I bellieve the cmd is 'appupdate sonos' but 'help all' will verify.


Re: S+ Delegates

 

If I'm going to have multiple instances of S+ modules, I typically connect them to unique instances of an S# class.? Each S+ module can then send its parameters (ID, zone name, whatever) up to the S# class.? If you had a static class processing incoming information, it could iterate through a List<> of instances to find the ones with matching zone numbers for example, and invoke callbacks on those.

It's currently being done using "RegisterDelegate" in simpl+ but if we use that in a scenario with a static class or a singleton class, with multiple simpl+ modules, then all the simpl+ modules get a callback... i'd rather callback only simpl+ modules that have a certain variable value or parameter.

Re: TSW xx60 Panels & Sonos App #sonos #tsw

 

We've now got two panels - one working, one not - both on the latest firmware, but with different Sonos App versions. (9.0.1 - working, 10.6.99 - not working)
What I'm trying to establish is: Is this a Sonos App version issue, or some underlying Android version (which we can't see) issue.
I've asked Crestron too (mainly to understand what the roll-back procedure should be if we break a customer system!)


Re: TSW xx60 Panels & Sonos App #sonos #tsw

 

Yes, definitely an issue. I don't think I've seen this yet but I *think* that Sonos recently announced that they no longer are supporting S1 (convenient for them!) so this may be an initial shot over the bow of what's to come with that.

I'm sure that you've done this but have you tried 'appupdate sonos' and see that VER -V returns Sonos 10.6.2 ??
I'm currently working on an upgrade of a client's two homes from 760s to 770s so that he can get the S2 app on the panels (Thank you good clients!!)...

And "we can't cope with working systems being deprecated under their feet."
This seems to be the definition of the Digital Age - I call it "The Apple-ization of Marketing and Technology"...
