Is the processor on the same local network as the receiver? The IP address shown is not a local IP?

If you're trying to control something on a remote network, you a) should probably reconsider, and b) need to make sure port forwarding is configured properly.

Hi All,
As I said above I am fairly new to this, but I am trying to control a Marantz av receiver using the TCP/IP Client. After sending the connect string all I get back is the following message.

Notice:TCP Client Slot-08.IP-ID-25: Unable to connect to TCP server (67.215.65.132&#92;0, status = -257

Now the IP address that is listed is not the one that I have entered into the Marantz or the IP Client module so im thinking that it must be an issue with DNS. I have tried both the DNS server on my modem and a third party one.

Any body know what staus = -257 means or come across this problem before.

Thanks in advance for any help.

+1 Very well said.

Especially #2 - I remember even before there was a Remote Central, using a Crestron learner and pulling discreet power codes off of a Sony receiver remote for every Sony device. Allot of trial and error but it was worth it.

I've seen some threads getting rather testy lately and I thought I would
post some helpful hints to help others avoid feeling internet wrath.


1. Do NOT post with questions or requests for help on tests. The tests mean
something. They are an indication of your skills. They are supposed to be a
measurable baseline that we ALL get judged upon. If a person gets a
certification and is undeserving of it, it tarnishes the reputation of the
certification that the rest of us have. Your certification does not just
apply to programming ability, it also has underlying implications that you
can search for information (see item 2), understand protocols, build your
own modules and IR drivers, etc...

2. Be more resourceful. There is a wealth of knowledge to be had. Search
engines do a lovely job trying help you find that information. If you're
looking for an IR driver, do the following BEFORE posting a "Does anyone
have this?"
a. Look in the Crestron DB
b. Try drivers for other models of similar devices. Chances are, the
codes are similar.
c. Search the files here (hint, your browsers search feature works
really well for this).
d. Search remote central. Even if you have to download pronto software
and grab hex codes and then dump them into DEAL, you should be doing this
before asking if anyone has a driver.
e. Look at other companies IR databases. There's a tool out there
somewhere that can convert AMX drivers to Crestron (Vert?). Look at RTI.
You can pull hex codes out of their IR database and put them into DEAL. Go
through every available resource you know.

Similarly, the same effort should go into finding ethernet and serial
protocols. There are a TON of modules here and if you spend more than 30
minutes with any search engine, you'll probably get close to what you're
looking for. Try multiple search engines, they don't always pull the same
results. Try different search terms, get creative. Other options available
include picking up the phone and calling support to find that information.

Remember, when members of the group post responses for peoples questions,
they are actively taking time out of their days to offer assistance. Don't
waste that time if you can do some searching on your own. As a bonus,
you'll be a better programmer for honing your search skills more.

3. Start your own archive for this groups content. I can't recommend this
enough. Gmail works really well, the storage is free and you have a better
(IMHO) search engine than the one that yahoo uses for the groups. Create a
new account and change your email preferences for the group so you get each
message as a single email. If you already have gmail, just use an incoming
filter to put everything in a label and skip your inbox. Sure, you'll need
to use the web interface to find information older than your archives start
date, but it's better than nothing.

4. Remember that tone is a tricky thing when reading and writing messages.
Do NOT post in all caps. It is the internet equivalent of shouting (how I
wish the caps lock key were never invented). If someone prefaces their post
with, "Don't take this the wrong way" or "Not to be rude" chances are, they
know what they are saying is going to be difficult to swallow. It doesn't
mean that they are instantly a jerk for saying what they did. It's the
internet, thick skin required.

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.

Greetings,
I am looking to stream a live feed to a TPMC8XG from a camera with audio.
Does anyone know of a camera or Hardware codec that will facilitate this?

Is it out yet or is the symbol just available to look at in simpl?

Use the crestron scheduler module and call it done.

They have had one in the base crestron modules for years.

If I can add to the "be more resourceful"

Every programmer should have or have access to an IR Learner whenever they're programming, onsite or off.

The new learner is tiny and cheap, and there's really no excuse, IMO, not to just have one in your laptop bag. Sure, learning remotes is not the most glorious thing -- when necessary I typically take it/them back to the hotel with me and learn with my feet up on a coffee table watching TV -- but it's usually a heck of a lot faster & more reliable than waiting for someone to reply with something that "might" "be close"

Yeah, sometimes the remote gets lost but the majority of the time it's right there with the manuals...
