RyanE Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Ryan also wrote the CGI app but that is now nowhere to be found. Is it being suppressed? If so by whom and why? If not then why can't you find it with a simple Google search on C4 and CGI?Because I don't support it anymore, and I don't intend on compiling it for future controllers and architectures, because it's a that it's not part of Control4's automatic build process. It's not been suppressed, etc., I'm just lazy.If you really want to install it, PM me with your email, I'll send it to you. It only works on the HC300/HC500 currently, it's not compiled for (and won't be compiled for) the HC1000.I am implying that those closest to head office are under more of a leash in terms of how creative that they are allowed to be and the C4 offices that are thousands of miles from home are not under the same leash.I know of no 'creativity leash' imposed by the main office, I'm allowed to write whatever I want on my own time. I'm guessing that it's because those of us in the 'home office' are working on Control4 *all day long*. After doing drivers / helping partners all day long, I don't always feel like writing drivers *all night long*, too.I've also been busy doing 2.0 training prep / vacation / CES prep for the last month or two.The last good one I wrote was the Light Usage Agent. It's a good one, IMHO, but not as 'flashy' as some of Alan's.Maybe I am too cynical and way off-base and watched too much X-Files....Sounds about right.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wappinghigh Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Back to the topic....you know i'd totally die (and pay handsomely) for a Sonos app....Sure games and weather and email alerts are fun, but this sort of app is something customers will pay serious money for, so well worth your development time....So please guys, write a Sonos IP 2 way driver for the new app store..

ERDrPC Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Display media information like mediabrowser - multiple options (all covers, linear row, slanted linear row, fan art in background when specific title chosen to get more info on, little tags that display the codecs associated with each file)Dito the upgraded mediaplayer to handle blue-ray backups with TrueHD or DTS HD/MAAgree with the multiple iphone/BB/android for 1 homeAt least allow dealers full control over the GUI (this is where Crestron beats C4 right now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 agreed, but with the new app store they will be easy to find and install...no more web digging... you can already stream video to the panels too, just use the panasonic video to ip converter and make it a fake camera..i do this for people who want to use the 10" as a tv in the bathroom in the morning for news, then a macro just turns the audio on from the cableCan you elaborate on this? What is this "panasonic video to ip converter" that you reference?I am very interested in this functionality.Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgbrown Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 ^ Just saying. I'm with you. Plenty of welcome surprises in 2.x brewing. Now if only they beef up their audio distro support we wouldn't need that Sonos App. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm just curious, other than iTunes support (which I hate iTunes anyways), what is so bad about C4's audio and so good about Sonos? I have distributed audio through every room in my house (save three of the bathrooms) and I absolutely love it. In my opinion other than the ability to fast forward and rewind (which really isn't a big deal) it doesn't really leave anything to be desired.I'm just curious what the major difference here is...
