Re: Zoom with Flex Systems

 

We regularly have to integrate either teams or zoom with crestron, and indeed it is complicated each time.
It's been a while since I interacted with Zoom but it seemed to me that you could stay on the control interface more easily than for Teams where you have to constantly activate a "hold" to stay in control mode.
I find that the most frustrating thing is not being able to manage the "ingest" part in teams => we cannot tell the machine to stop sharing content if the last user has left the meeting. ...


Simpl+ with "" as the default string parameter value

 

I've written a Simpl+ module with a massive amount of string parameters and to make the module as user friendly I would like have them fill with "" by default.??

I've tried about every combo I can think of for the?propDefaultValue but alas, no luck.? And for some reason Simpl like to fill in the values with a 0d if you tell it to complete the block.

Any hints on the syntax?? I tried """", "\x22\x22" and "\"\"" along with everything I could think of.

Anyone get this to work?

Thanks


Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

It's the same output.

There's a special section in the remote's Setup Menu, where it can be registered to use one of the cloud processing services - I believe only the TSR-310 has this. Once registered, that voice capture feedback signal contains the PROCESSED voice output.

If the touchpanel isn't registered with a cloud service, the voice capture output contains the raw text-to-speech. And there's a HUGE difference between the two :-)

Re: Flex with QSC Control

 

I have installed the QSC msi and it ran along the Crestron software.? The QSC control will take priority for the flip page.? Been running for 2 years.


Flex with QSC Control

 

Hi. Is there a way to delete the Crestron "page 2" application from a Flex system, so a different "page 2" (QSC) can be installed instead?

We have standardized on Flex MTRs, now we are thinking that some rooms we can do the "page 2" control within QSC and would rather not have the Crestron programming layer. We would rather not introduce multiple MTR vendors due to familiarity with support (Crestron Remote app, True Blue flex support team)

If we deleted the Crestron app, would a firmware package re-install it?

Thank you

Re: ATC-AudioNet

 

Mine is down too, does this really mean EOL


Re: Zoom with Flex Systems

 

Yes, it is a cluster.? I have found that the extenders to launch in/out of the Zoom/Teams apps seem to work pretty well. My custom interface manages everything for the room and Zoom, in this case, is 'like' a source.
My only real complaint is general confusion with the Zoom app (which I have no control over). Things like the highly specific and unintuitive way to get BYOD going and screens like the 'Sharing screen' that seems to list launch codes for Norad in addition to other confusing stuff...
It seems that no one big enough is providing pain on zoom to refine/fix these things...:(


Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

I think I would just take the string in to S+ and look for key bits.
For instance, Family Room Lights On you would look for "fam" + "light" + "on", if it finds all three in the string trigger the output.


Re: ATC-AudioNet

 

Did you ever get yours working?


Re: Zoom with Flex Systems

 

Yeah the MTR/Zoom UC environment was enough for me to quit programming and just go back to Commissioning only. Unfortunately there is really no way to properly integrate these types of systems properly.? We always end up with these Frankenstein systems where crestron and Microsoft/zoom are competing for control of the room.? Can't honestly say I've managed to integrate one in to a system that I was happy with.?

Ideally it would be awesome if we could treat the zoom/mtr as a source only.? Being able to hide the zoom/mtr page permanently until we needed to use it would be a start.?

I could go on and on about my gripes with these systems but what's the point? It's 90% of what we do these days now and that's not going to change.? I've even tried using dual touch panels in order to try and make the user experience better (one purely for conferencing and one to control the room) but that was terrible. Simpler solution for me was to quit programming and just commission.? All I have to do now is make sure I'm getting audio in and out of the system, video is passing and then handball back to the client and let them deal with getting it on the network and signed in etc.?

I know a few programmers now that actively refuse jobs if programming around uc devices is involved.?


Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

I see, so with the unit's raw "text-to-speech" function, we have to account for every possible combination of words in SIMPL, obviously this is no-go. ?Crestron's voice service is discontinued, even though the extenders feedback shows it's working? ?Voice_Recognition_Service_Online_fb = 1

So, basically the TSR-302 is unusable for text to speech right??

Thanks


Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

It's been years since I played with a 302 and voice.? The TSR-310 also just provides a text string that you pipe into josh.? One issue I had a while back is the timezone on the remote needs to be set.? They can randomly default to Greenwich, which causes the voice function to fail.?


Re: Zoom with Flex Systems

 

I have done one...I think "sux" sums it up pretty well...I liken it to Frankenstein (Flex System) meets Helen Keller (Zoom custom buttons).?


Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

I believe the text output was simply run through an SIO, and you manually entered the various match strings. Plan for lots of trial-and-error :-)

How do I force the built in text-to-speech engine on the 302 instead of the

Re: TSR-302 Voice Control Issue

 

You should confirm it with Tech Support, but I'm pretty sure the TSR-302's voice features ONLY work with their built-in Text-to-Speech engine, or Crestron's own cloud-based voice-recognition server - the latter of which has been discontinued.

Integrating the remote's voice feature with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or Josh.ai, only works with the newer TSR-310.

Re: Construct and page visibility joins

 

I didn¡®t see this that often. Do you use rebuild or build and project or solution?


Honestly I still didn¡®t understand the differences, but maybe there is the reason why you get this more often.

Are you using release or labs version?
