  1. You could probably use a cheaper Monoprice one with an IR remote assuming that you can train the IR codes
  2. Do we know how much C4 represents of Snap One's revenue? SnapOne's sales went from $591M in 2019 to 814M in 2020 and 1008M in 2021. C4's revenue from 2016-2018 was $208M, $244M and $273M - it was a separate public company at this time so its financial statements are public. So it seems to me that C4 would have been about 30% of Snap One revenue, allowing for a bit of growth
  3. I posted this in the thread in the main forum thread. It looks like Control4 hasn't been a very good investment for Snap One/ Hellman & Friedman. They should have sold the rest of their Snap One shares back in early 2022 when it was still well above $15/share and their lockup expired.
  4. I am pretty sure that this will not work if you flash with Tasmota. I have a bunch of switches with Tasmota and I just used the Generic IP driver to issue IP commands for on or off or Toggle. There are BertIO Tasmota drivers - might want to look at those. I haven't played around with them yet, but I plan to. https://www.berto.co.uk/ And see this thread that I started a few months ago.
  5. Have you contacted them - they should be pretty responsive and a couple of folks from the firm are active here.
  6. How do these changes occur without an update? Or is Roku lying by not changing version number when doing "stealth" upgrades?
  7. Interesting. Snap One acquired Control4 in 2019 for $680M. This probably hasn't been a good investment for Hellman & Friedman, the PE firm that still owned 72% of Snap One, after IPO'ing it in 2021 for $18/share - especially since there was presumably some other value in other parts of Snap One excluding Control4. They purchased Snap AV from General Atlantic in 2017. And I doubt that they have been pulling any money out of the company since it never had positive net income and averaged a loss of about $20M per year. Revenue has been flat over the last few years at about $1B. The takeover price is $10.75, assuming that it goes through. Snap One had been trading around $8 recently.
  8. Why not Roku? It works fine with Plex. And seems to have fewer issues with C4 integration than ATV.
  9. Does the chair have metal legs? Likely the effect described in the paper linked to in my previous post.
  10. When I get into or out of my office chair some or all of my monitors go dark for a second. I couldn't figure out what was happening until I saw this paper from 1993: https://www.emcesd.com/pdf/eos93.pdf It probably isn't your problem as it seems like it isn't just a problem related to getting in and out of chairs.
  11. Even this part. Or was this posted in error? Support for sending ECP commands from within a Roku channel application has been discontinued"….. "In addition, ECP commands may not be sent from 3rd-party platforms (for example, mobile applications).
  12. Does it sound like Roku is changing some of their policies and they are going to be reducing the functionality of their external REST API going forward? Are we looking at another Chamberlain sort of situation?
  13. You're right - I was looking at the other notice linked to from above.
  14. They appear to have removed that part from their statement. Nevermind
