That's what I thought. Thanks.

The Crestron Android app also is not compatible with Pixel 7 (regular and pro) due to lack of 32bit support, so an update is on the way. No idea when.

I'm interested in the Ava for a hotel application.

Me too, my understanding is that they are aware of it. It's been going on for over a month.

Have a client that is having an issue with their App connection and wondering outside of network if there are any issues that could be thought of? Picture for clarity.?

I have heard rumors that some people have gotten old 3.5 stuff to compile with new versions of VS, but I believe they needed the VS2008 installed as well.

Unfortunately debugging with the latest VS is the biggest pain I have ever fought.? Funny how they celebrated getting rid of the VS2008 debugging at their masters talk on debugging.? It may have been a bit finnicky but WAY more reliable than debugging with 2019.

Just a follow-up on this, as I have a project asking for NEO integration...
1. Is there a non-CCD module (traditional SMW-style module) for the NEO series???
2. If not, will this PKG work on 3-series?? Dave H's initial comments seemed to indicate that it will only 4-series...

TIA!

Yes I'm quite familiar with Josh.? I wrote an article about Josh for Residential Tech Today a while back.?

I thought that Google also had the ability to link commands with "and". Please correct me if I'm wrong on that.? Amazon just uses follow-up mode where it keeps listening after one command is issued so you can add a second command without saying alexa again.? However, "and" is much more natural speech.

Josh has its niche but it is just too expensive for the average person.?? I'm curious about Mycroft though.?

I don't believe that Alexa, or its direct competitors, will simply go away.? These companies have sold way too many smart speakers that killing the functionality of all those products would result in a massive class action law suit.

I believe this is because Josh.ai has the patent on complex commands allowing multiple requests to be concatenated with "and". If you have not, I would check out Josh as an option. Definitely more pricey than either Alexa or Google, but you're not selling your data and I'm less worried about Josh being shuttered on a whim, which I definitely get concerned about with the other players.?

I'll throw out my $.02.? It used to be that if you had an Amazon prime subscription Alexa was a "no brainer".? However, with the recent changes to Amazon music and TuneIn adding tons of ads on top of the ads already included in the Internet radio stations they make available, the differences aren't as clear cut as before.?

I don't feel there is any difference in integration as the same crestron modules are used for either service.

However, there is one unique trigger available with the IFTTT Alexa service that I don't believe can be replicated with Google Assistant.? My wife and I use Alexa devices as alarm clocks.? There is an IFTTT trigger when an Alexa Alarm Clock alarm is triggered.? We use this to wake our house up in the morning including restoring the heat to its normal daytime setting.? No extra commands to issue in the morning when we get up, no second timed triggers needed since we get up at different times on different days.? We also have over a dozen Alexa devices so changing would be expensive.?

The Amazon personnel cutbacks in their devices division and the losses in that division are also worrying as it doesn't paint a good picture for future enhancements in Alexa.?

I do think Alexa's voice processing has stagnated.? I think it is ridiculous after this amount of time that you can't link 2 commands in one sentence with the word "and" in between.

Also the fact you can't stop Alexa from giving you additional information after a simple voice command is very annoying; especially since there are settings that are supposed to turn all that off.

Hope this helps

You have to have VS 2008 to do SIMPL # for 3 series processors.? You can use new versions of Visual Studio to do # for 4 series.??

The requirement of 2008 for 3 series is unfortunate, but it is what it is at this point.??

Sorry for ressurecting an old thread, but I don't seem to find an answer.

I want to dive into Simpl#, and on the Crestron Website, they say the libraries work with Visual Studio 2008 SP1.
It seems to be an old version, not supported anymore and not available for download. (except for the link provided above)? I doubt that the only way to create simpl# modules is throught this old 2008 software. Crestron should be better than this... no?

I heard about Visual Studio Community versions, can that work?

What is the simplest way for me to start?

I'm new at this Simpl# thing so thanks for your help.

-----------------------------edit------------------------------

If I understand correctly the excel sheet, VS2008 professional is included in the latest supported version of VS if you have a specific Microsoft Licence that allows it?

Sonos recent versions can use airplay and piece of cake

What is you're guy's preference? Initially I liked Alexa but now that I have both at home I am finding Google Home more user friendly.?
Any thoughts? Which is easier to integrate with Crestron.

Thanks

i should have said he has Sonos
looks like Sonos supports it already?

No you cannot.?

Thanks Brian,

I hadn't thought about using an output instead of a Shelly relay.? I was hoping someone knew the internals of the modules well enough that there was a serial message that I could inject somewhere that would make the alarm system think there was an alarm.?

Thanks again

Bluesound node.? No converters direct audio out; converters are just another fail point.? Has both airplay and Bluetooth plus some streaming services built in.? The reliability is worth the little extra money.??

Hi?Michael,

Actually, I tried looking for this module in the application market but couldn't get the exact module.

Is it possible for you could share the Crestron module link?
