  1. Hi all, So here's an interesting one. I have a Philips Hue bridge with about 25 bulbs around the perimeter of the house to change colors for various events. All programming works great. In Alexa, when I discover devices, I just noticed I have a HUGE number of devices. For one philips Hue bulb I have three color channels, red, green, blue. So I have 75 extra devices that clutters my device list. Anyone else see this if you have this setup, and know a way to stop it? RussellB
  2. It does. I manually changed one to update it and it still shows the -1. I'm debating removing it and reinstalling.
  3. Hi, I've created multiple experience icons with the program I posted here previously. Suddenly, I'm seeing in Manage Drivers newer ones I have created (4 of 10) now show "Local version is 14 and is newer than the controller version -1." Even though the files in /mnt/internal/c4z folder match the local drivers. Has anyone else encountered something like this? RussellB
  4. Adding my experience on this. On March 5th The OSD of the EA-5 that is used in the Theater did the Control+Spinning 4. Reboots did nothing. I decided I didn't REALLY need the OSD as I had an extra T4 that I could move into the Theater. End of day March 7th I went to take a look again and it was working again. All 4 EA-1s I have and the four touch screens were fine. I was able to capture this from the director log. Every time I hit the Control4 button it put this entry in: C4HomeKeyReceiver: Failed to inject dependencies
  5. What OS are you using. My system was upgraded to OS3 last month. Before that I was on 2.10.6 and I noticed that the native voice started having to be 'repeated' before it took an action. Now on OS3 the native voice commands are rock solid.
  6. Hi all, Anyone else encountering an outage right now? RussellB Service is restored. Trying to re-link was failing, and accessing mobile from outside the network was done.
  7. I fixed the um_spotify.c4z driver with the proper application number and it works. The issue I was having with other channels was due to the auto-sense feature of the Roku. When viewing the OSD on a different HDMI connection the Roku was not responding to commands because it thought it was not connected. I manually selected a display type and it now works as expected. In case anyone runs into this.
  8. Yes, the app is installed. I installed the roku python library and tried launching Pandora from a python script and it fails to do so the problem is not the driver. The driver has the right code for pandora, '28'. However, the um_spotify.c4z driver has the wrong code to the Roku. It's 22297, not 19977. On a positive note I now have a great way to get the ids of all the apps so I can create drivers for them.
  9. Hi, After updating Roku's because they were old sticks that lost some capabilities (e.g. Amazon Prime Video) all the previous Universal Drivers work (Amazon Music, SiriusXM, Spotify) but Pandora just goes to a black screen or the main menu. FYI if someone encounters this. RussellB
  10. I maxed out the volume on the Dot and control the volume via the audio mixer. I wanted a Dot per room because I wanted people to be able to listen to different things across the rooms. I have three, Kitchen, Living Room & Master Bedroom.
  11. Need some debugging... please check the word document attached. Setting up Alexa Echo Dots as sound sources to be voice controlled in a room.docx
  12. Creating another room would require duplicating the room except changing the audio endpoints from the amp to the tv. Would that work?
  13. Oh I get it. Using programming I was trying to make it work without adding another room. I programmed the yellow button to toggle the mute state of the TV and the AMP (TV mute, Amp not; TV not, Amp mute). That worked as I wanted so the sound moved from the TV to the AMP and back. What I couldn't get was the volume control in the room to NOT perform its default behavior; so when I tried to program the volume control to send volume pulse commands to the non-muted device it would still send it to the device that was the default in the room (the Amp) which would take the Amp off of mute, which then defeated the purpose. Now I'm wondering if I remove the Amp from the audio endpoints can I make that programming work.
  14. Well I'm half-way there. I've set it up so I can toggle MUTING the TV or the AMP, and it switches perfectly. What I can't seem to get is the volume to control one or the other. I've set a variable "IS_LISTENING_TO_TV" to True. Then intercepting the room's "Pulse Volume Up" command to check if it is True and if it is send it to the TV instead of the Amp, but it ALSO sends it to the Amp, which takes it off mute and gets everything out of sync. So close!
