Re: Moving a button around the screen on a DMDGE-200-C
*Years ago* we created a custom SmartObject that was derived from the classic SG Advanced Button but we added the additional X/Y location joins so that they could be positioned dynamically at runtime.
It worked (as in the button functioned correctly) but there was some side effect around the memory usage that didn't exhibit itself in the same way with the standard button object - it was only a problem here because the client wanted *literally* hundreds of buttons and the more we added to a page, the more the memory was gobbled up (you might say "well of course it would!"; but it didn't happen in the same way if you just added the same number of baked in buttons, and we weren't instantiating any additional objects, just exposing a couple of analog joins to adjust the parent object's canvas x/y position).? You'd need to work in ActionScript - not S# - to reproduce this, or do what Lincoln says and have many instances and drive the visibility. We stopped developing custom Smart Objects a long time ago though, but other than the iOS/Android limitation, that decision was more commercial than technical.? Hardly anyone seemed to want to custom objects.? This is one of the sad things about SG... it could have been *way* more powerful than anyone ever gave it credit.? I'm not getting into the reasons for that here, other than to suggest there may be parallels with CH5 - lots of cool features, a smallish group of developers that see an opportunity to raise the bar, and limited appetite amongst integrators to use anything but the off-the-peg stuff. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, as they (used to?) say. |

Re: Security Cams Integration (General Opinions)
Ivan Wild
Hey Thorsten,
I am surprised there is not a simpler solution for this issue. I think I am going to pick away at some coding.? I am on a zero time line but the mandate is that is has to work as requested.? I am going to go buy some costco cams and use them as a test bench at home to pick away at the code or symbols.? I figure if I can integrate those, I should be able to integrate any others. Keep the comments coming... Would love to see some code or symbol examples ... or any other ideas. (again... login into a separate system outside of crestron is undesirable.? The object is to reduce the apps to one) |

Re: Cisco switch reports phantom MAC address on port of DMPS3
Hi Brad,
2 things come to mind. ? Do you have the Subnet network connection connected to the network at the same time? ?If so have you compared the MAC address on that adapter? ? We had a CP3N that got confused which network adapter was in use. ?Worked then didn¡¯t. ?It kept switching between the 2 as the vLan was not configured correctly and as such dropped off the network. We have also had a DMPS3-4K sat on a customers network now for over 12 months. ?No problems or need for a reboot. ?. ? ?Thats on a vLan configuration but on a Netgear switch stack. rgds |

Re: Cisco switch reports phantom MAC address on port of DMPS3
This is most likely the Content LAN interface MAC broadcasting on the LAN port. I've never been able to find it's mac via console or toolbox - you have to check in the setup Xpanel so you may have missed it. Let us know if you find a way to turn off the content lan completely. Last time I check it wasn't possible.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi?I have seen this done before . You could move sections of the gui around the touch panel . I think it was only available on an iPad though . A Uk company called C3 was showing it of at a trade show many years ago ? Regards

Re: Moving a button around the screen on a DMDGE-200-C
That is exactly what I thought, but I figured I should ask in case someone else knew something different, as my S# experience is limited.
I was thinking/hoping that there might be a method to instantiate the item and provide the positioning on the fly. Thanks. |

Re: Moving a button around the screen on a DMDGE-200-C
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThe UI is entirely controlled by the VTP project so if VTP doesn¡¯t expose a handle to control it (e.g. serial/analog/digital/SG join #) what¡¯s on the other end doesn¡¯t matter at all. ? Some objects, like the video window, expose analog X/Y and width/height position analogs (which I¡¯ve used to work around another limitation in the platform) but I¡¯m not sure which other objects expose this ¨C button, fill border, and image definitely do not. ? Depending on what you mean by ¡°move¡± you¡¯re probably going to have to put multiple copies of the button in the locations you want it and use visibility joins to only show the one in the location you want it. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Cisco switch reports phantom MAC address on port of DMPS3
Jim Spencer
Hey Brad,? Do you have all of the MAC addresses registered? Out of the 5ish addresses in a DMPS3-4K I believe that both the processor and AirMedia MACs hit the switch. If they're not registered to the same zone, 'port security' will make the jack drop offline until you reboot or unplug it in our environment. Could that be it?? Hope this helps, Jim?

Re: Cisco switch reports phantom MAC address on port of DMPS3
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDo they report that MAC address in addition to the correct MAC address or is that the only MAC address they see on the port? Does it match the MAC address of the AirMedia/RTSP slot? ? ? We don¡¯t have a 4K-350-C in our lab otherwise I¡¯d connect to the Cisco switch and refresh my memory but if I recall correctly if the content LAN is not connected AirMedia by default appears on the ¡°normal¡± LAN port ¨C this applies even if AirMedia isn¡¯t licensed and it¡¯s just in the ¡°RTSP Stream Receive¡± mode ? If so ask the client if they have switchport port-security enabled on the switch interface with Crestron. If they do and (1) switchport port-security maximum X is configured, where X < 2 , and (2) switchport port-security violation protect or switchport port-security violation restrict is configured the switch will drop traffic on the port [the difference is protect silently drops traffic while restrict drops traffic and raises an SNMP trap] or if switchport port-security violation shutdown is configured the port will be disabled, and is the default. ? Easy way to get this in one go if the client will let you is sh run int (interface ID of the port with the DMPS) which will show you the entire configuration for that port. ? What I¡¯m guessing they¡¯re doing is port security is enabled with a maximum of 1 MAC address, at some point the AirMedia card is generating enough traffic for the switch to notice it¡¯s there (1 packet will be enough¡) and then the switch sees the security violation and starts dropping traffic. ? When you unplug the patch cable the port security violation eventually self-heals/resets and starts the cycle over again. ? If that¡¯s the case, options in no particular order (1)??? Disable the AirMedia card or explicitly force it to use the Content LAN (2)??? Raise the maximum number of MAC addresses on the port to >=2 and as a partial guard explicitly permit the expected MAC on the port (switchport port-security maximum 3 combined with switchport port-security mac-address 0010.7fxx.xxxx, the latter configuration line repeated for each MAC expected to be on the port (3)??? Raise the maximum number of MAC addresses on the port to >= 2 (4)??? Disable MAC counting on the port (interface configuration command ¡°no swtichport port-security¡± ? The other option if it¡¯s a network with heavy broadcast/multicast traffic (e.g. NVX without IGMP snooping and querrier configured and multicast TCN flooding disabled) is that the processor¡¯s Ethernet card is getting overwhelmed and an Ethernet watchdog is shutting the port down, however, the behavior you¡¯re describing is not exactly what I¡¯d expect in that case. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Cisco switch reports phantom MAC address on port of DMPS3
Anyone ever see this issue? I've had it happen probably 10+ times in this corporate environment. I'll do my best to describe:
DMPS3-4K-250-C or DMPS3-4K-350-C (has happened with multiples of each type) suddenly drops off the network and the room stops functioning.? All units have static addresses on the same subnet and are in a common VLAN.? When this happens, the device cannot be ping'd.? Every time this happens I reach out to the corporate IT group and ask what they can see on the associated port of the Cisco switch (most of them are Catalyst 9200, a few are 2960).? Without fail, they report that the configuration is correct (correct VLAN, static addressing) and the port is active.? The problem is that the MAC address that they report is incorrect.? Oddly, it always has the correct first three octets 00:10:7f that identify it as Crestron.? The last three octets do not match any MAC addresses that we have installed (we have recorded them all).? The fix....simply unpatch the LAN cable long enough to have the LAN light go out on the DMPS and repatch.? I assume the MAC table in the switch gets rewritten correctly because that fixes it every time.? When IT checks the port again, it reports the correct MAC.? Simple enough to fix, but the unreliability is frustrating everyone.? True Blue hasn't been much help. It's probably a Cisco thing, but the IT group is stumped.? Appreciate any insight. Thanks, Brad Bohannon |

Re: Laptop with AMD Radeon graphics
If it is like most Dell laptops with graphics cards, there is usually always an option to use Intel's HD (or UHD in your case) instead of the Radian card.? I myself have an Nvidia graphic cards in all my laptops but hardly ever use the Nvidia option as I find Crestron software works fine with HD Graphics.? The main reason I use HD graphics is lower power consumption and therefore longer battery life.
Now if you want to do gaming, that is where you need your Radian graphics card.? I cannot speak for Biamp and etc. |
