Re: Infinite Oscillator

 

I current do exactly what you are describing to check when an EISC is offline.? Been doing that for many, many years and never once have I seen where the oscillator stop working.? I think you will find you will have other things cause you issues other then this.


Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

I have a slight off topic but somewhat related question for you all:
Why does a wired TP has option for multiple IPID masters?
In what cases would you use that?


Infinite Oscillator

 

I have noticed that the Ethernet Offline Manager is Super laggy, meaning it may take up to a minute for it to report that the EISC is actually Offline. What I've done is added an Oscillator in the first processor that sends a "heartbeat" pulse every two seconds and if the connection between the two processors is somehow broken I know about it almost instantly as the pulses stop coming in. My question is, have any of you ever seen an oscillator stop working? I need this to work reliably for many years.

Thank you,

BruteForceIsUnderRated, I found your previous post with fput command description. It worked for me. Thank you!

AMEN!!


Re: Timer module #programming

 

what about when you want to have HH:MM:SS? you need to zero the seconds once you hit 60 sec, and start incrementing the minutes, etc.


Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

If their CH5 components are any indication...I would MUCH rather just have an API/protocol documentation to CRPC than a CH5-MediaPlayer component that would be a nightmare to "skin"


Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

Mmmmm...Typical...
Crestron Should then provide a *Working* model that could be skinned as desired...It's really crappy that they got us all excited about HTML5 and then did essentially nothing...
Thanks Nathan!


Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

Never heard about fput.

So I can save .vtz into /NVRAM at the processor and then load it onto the touchpanel?

Do you happen to have an example of how to use this command?

No, and the vtz is deleted after its loaded.


Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

Going along with the console projectload at the TSW panel, you might also use the fput command at the processor to push the file to the TSW panel and tell it to load

As I said I don't think it's good idea to have all these GUIs in one VTPro project. Quite often when I have even two VTPro projects open it unexpectedly closes. I assume because custom themes are heavy.

The VTP MPO uses the CRPC protocol which isn't documented. You technically could create an HTML5 MPO like component, but you would need to reverse engineer the CRPC Protocol. I tried a few years ago to get any type of documentation on it from Crestron and was very annoyed after a few months and gave up.

Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

Hi Nathan,
So does the HTML5 MPO need to be made specific to each device to be controlled vs one MPO that interfaces to whatever device it connects to, that has the proper parameters??
I.e. Can an MPO be built to handle anything that Crestron approves for use with the VTP MPO?
TIA!


Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

If client is set on using the TSW but have 3 different versions. I'm guessing for different users. You could create an Interface setup page that allowed end-user to select theme and interface configuration. In VTP, I would create a page for each Interface version and have subpages to match. Keep labeling consistent so not to be confusing. Have a Main page (1) for the configuration and based on selection will page flip to appropriate page with associated subpages. It will be confusing unless you stay organized in the VTP and Code. Good luck.


Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

I think this is a bad idea... but if you really want to you can load projects from console by putting the .vtz file in /display/ then run `projectload`


Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

I've sort of started one, but currently it's only designed for the MMS since that's primarily what I use. It's an open source project and you can view, edit, modify or generally do what ever you'd like with it except blame me ?

Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

I know you specifically call out using a TSW panel and if you are locked in to that then good luck.

My thought for this application would be to use an Ipad with the CrestronGO app. You simply have all the different projects added in separately and they choose which one they want to use.
Keeps the program side much cleaner and your VT-Pro files all separate.


Re: IR learning issues

 

I usually use simpl to rebuild databases. But sounds like there is a corrupted file in there and is causing toolbox to crash


Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

Yes, I have wondered the same thing.? I think the answer is going to be we have to create our own like we used to do before the media player object.? That's with all the individual joins etc., the major players that I can think of have the individual joins as well as the CRPC.... MMS, Sonos, and Bluesound.? It will be a pain to setup the first time, but if we use the same joins every time we can copy and paste from there.? I'm with you though, we need the MPO
