Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Client refuses to use 2 remotes. That¡¯s our current solution right now but he said he paid what he paid to use one remote and that¡¯s what he wants. Plus he loses the apple remote so when he does this I get a call at 10pm from him to walk him through opening remote app on his iPhone and exiting. Like I just mentioned, he¡¯s a 4 year old in technology intelligence?


Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Just actually saw one of the programmers at the grocery store this weekend. He no longer works for the company along with a few others who worked on the job are now gone. He said that he believe the lead programmer set it up incorrectly and did mention something about pulse mode. I didn¡¯t understand what that meant but I¡¯m assuming that means it just sends a pulse to the IR and holding down any keep won¡¯t keep it held down for the IR. Again, I¡¯m just overseeing this as favor for homeowner because I programmed their last house with c4 working for another company. Now homeowner hired me as personal IT help for his multiple houses and offices from Florida to Martha¡¯s Vineyard. My only job is to make it easy as possible for him to work the system. Imagine a 4 year old with this tech, that¡¯s what I¡¯m dealing with.?


Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Also, you could just reboot the ATV. that will get you out of the 'Stuck' mode if that's the issue...
If it's controlled by IR, Then from the main UI, go to Settings and drill down a few levels in the menus, then P+H the Menu/Back button. if it jumps you back to the Main UI, then the P+H works and your issue is the HBO app (I sure it is anyway!...)
This unless they set the IR driver to pulse mode...


Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Do you have the original AppleTV remote or an iPhone or iPad?? If yes to any of those, you should be able to control the AppleTV with them.? Can you exit the app with one of those?? Do you happen to know if the AppleTV is being controlled by IR or through an app talking to it over the network?? If IR, there should be a little IR emitter bug stuck on the front of the AppleTV.? Knowing how it's being controlled may shed some light on what's going on.

Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Fwiw, I always program the advanced IR driver restart command on some "off" button, like DVR on a TSR-310.? If all else fails, just hit that button and in 10 seconds it should be back up and running at the main menu.


TriplePlay - Server/Client control

 

I created a C# wrapper and using 2 S+ modules to control TriplePlay Server and Clients via IP. These are very rough and if you have suggestions to simplify my code please let me know. This is my first C# wrapper and is very rough.

Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Agree with AVMaster!
I've seen a number of these kinds of issues with certain apps, sometimes related to mismatch of App and ATV software...??
i.e. App gets updated to compensate for ATV updates, then the ATV automatic updates don't automatically run and so there's an issue...
If only everyone would do what they were supposed to do...HaHa...


Re: HBO max won¡¯t exit on apple tv #crestron

 

Or try long pressing the menu/home/whatever button.

Also¡­if the button works correctly on every other app, what makes you think that it ¡®isn¡¯t¡¯ the app? ?It¡¯s not uncommon for ATV apps to act a little different from app to app. ?Fast forward, rewind etc are a little different depending on which service you are using. ?I¡¯m pretty sure that ¡®these programmers¡¯ aren¡¯t purposely leaving out the secret HBO exit command.


Re: Extron dmp128 #simpl

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I had a dmp64 recently. To get it to work i did the following:

?

The first string the dmp sends after connection ends with ¡°password:¡±

Then you have to send the password.

Then you get a reply that you have logged in as administrator or user.

Then you can start sending the verbose mode and strings (e.g. ¡°I¡±) to keep the connection open. In my case the connection dropped after one minute and I haven¡¯t changed this in the settings.

@Andy, I know the password for the device.? That's not the issue.? The issue is the password is preventing the VC-4 from communicating with the DMP (At least that's my theory).?

?

I'm fairly new to the game, and still don't know all the tricks.? Is there a way to set the processor to remember passwords of various devices?? Also, I'm using a VC-4, running SIMPL program.? It's my 1st time programming a VC-4.

Re: Roon integration

 

Hi,
JFYI - as i just downloaded the latest Roon integration modules for a client with a Nucleus server, i found that the Nucleus-only restriction has been taken away.
The module now works with all Roon Core installations.

I?ll try that with my own Windows-based core during the week.

Cheers,

Stupid questions, how could I duplicate the control on multi panels? (what happens on panel 1 mirror on panel 2)

Re: REST API for Crestron Virtual Control #simplsharppro

 

Thanks for the reply Jeremy.
The example with the POST request is using the "Add Program" command.
I'm wanting to use the "Modify Program" command to modify an existing program. This is listed as a PUT request.
Unfortunately I'm still unable to make this work.


Re: Setting httpsclient version

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Thanks Cameron.? I thought it would be set through something like

client.Version = new Version(1, 1); for setting http v1.1 but a Version object doesn't convert to a string.? The last thing I expected was that this was a way to set the user agent.? That is useful but not what I was looking for.

Does anyone know how to specify the http version?? for example 1.0, 1.1, 2.0

Thanks again

Jay

Since that's all based on what the browser publisher defines, it's open ended, you'd just be looking for the right agent string to fit whatever you're trying to do?

Re: Windows 11 HP Laptop/ USB Toolbox Device Discovery Not Working

 

Similar to what Lincoln described, I have had issue with my laptop capturing the CP4 USB interface and trying to use it as an Ethernet port (I am running a Linux host).? That keeps toolbox in my Windows VM from seeing the USB port.? I have to go into my network adapter settings and disconnect from the bogus Ethernet adapter.? After I do that, my Windows VM can see the CP4 and toolbox can see and use the CP4 USB interface.? You might check your Windows network adapters and make sure it is not trying to use the CP4 as an Ethernet connection.

Re: Windows 11 HP Laptop/ USB Toolbox Device Discovery Not Working

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Did you install the NDIS drivers when installing Toolbox (not sure about Windows 11 but in Windows 10 it¡¯s one of 2-4 random popups outside of the Toolbox installer while Toolbox is installing?

?

The 4-series processors USB appears as a network card (with a 169.x.x.x link local address) but require the driver. If you open device manager do you have an ¡°unidentified device¡± that pops up when the processor is connected and goes away when the processor is disconnected?

Hello,

Has anyone had any issues with an HP Spectre running Windows 11 not being able to see USB Devices (specifically a CP4) in Toolbox Device Discovery? Ethernet works fine.

I have an older Spectre running Windows 10 and it works fine.

????

Thanks,

Toolbox Opens but No Display-SOLVED

 

Thanks for responses.
I ended up Right Click+Shift on Toolbox in tray to then choose Maximize.
No idea why this would happen out of the blue from day before.
Thanks again.
