Halo Wish List

Recommended Posts

Although it is probably harder to do than a programming change, I'd like to see the white circle button as a red circle button. Easier to spot the Record button if it's red.

Change the custom button tags/captions programmatically.

Change the media list format to a more dense format to show more.

Enable find remote tone.  It already beeps when it is docked, so there is a speaker.

While i don't see much use for this (it should get docked - if you didn't by the time you think to beep it it's likely dead) I would think it fairly simple to implement.

It already has a microphone for voice, so intercom could be possible. 

That is a lot of conjecture - just because there's a mic and a speaker doesn't mean it's capable of integrating a full two-way audio.

Custom functions should change when Room is switched.

Uhm, you mean the 3 custom buttons? By default they trigger custom 1-3 that were introduced with the SR-260 - so just program on those vs a 'direct' button push.

Disable confirmation screen on Room Off.

At least have an option to turn it on/off

Yes, I believe we all know that.  I meant, the labels for these should change as you change to a different room with different functions.  Currently, the labels only stay on what was programmed for the original room.  IE- my family room fireplace button still shows when I switch to my bedroom, which has no fireplace...

Ah so you mean have the LABELS be dynamic and/or programmable

I have to say after having the remote for a bit, the buttons need to be more identifiable by touch. Kind of like the F and J keys on my keyboard. Pressing the DVR button by mistake when fast forwarding or rewinding is extremely frustrating since the play button doesn't do anything while in DVR mode. At least not on Dish.

“Network Error” should not happen when everything else is working fine, including the C4 app, controller, and everything else but the Halo. “Please check your Wi-Fi connection” is not very helpful. How about some specific steps to get the Halo back online.

There are more enhancements on the way for this error. Right now. The only thing to do is reboot it

No luck. Tried multiple times. Along with rebooking all network equipment and controller.

To be clear, you are power-cycling the Halo, correct?  The button on the top edge of the Halo.  

Yes. First just rebooted it. Then shut it down while rebooting network and controller. Then powered it up. Left it with the net error the rest of the day hoping it would heal itself. It didn’t so turned it off overnight. Still not working.

Do you just have the one Halo?  Just curious.

There should be an automatic update to fix this issue within the next week or so.  Stay tuned...

I'm curious how this works when the the remote is offline. Been nearly two weeks without the remote.

Grasping.  Have you tried rebooting and adding the Halo back via the C4 app?  At this point, I’d go to the person you bought the Halo from for support.

One Halo. Nothing about the network has changed. About ready to go back to the tried and true SR-260.

How do I get the QR code to come up? It goes right to the network error when I shut it down and restart it.

It makes no sense.  I don’t think that FW update existed on 04/27.  

Maybe that is what it SHOULD be -- since composer isn't communicating with it? You'd think it would show the last info, tho. I emailed @chopedogg88 - and I should've contacted him sooner but we've been in/out of town.
