  1. Three are a few third party tools to be able to change the icons for the driver. Like the one that I wrote: Also see
  2. I haven't bought this driver yet but the Chowmain AndroidTV driver should work. There is a free, open-source driver but it doesn't appear to work anymore. https://chowmain.software/drivers/control4-android-remote
  3. One of the best bang for the buck players on the market is the onn 4K pro that is only available at Walmart in the US. It is $50 and has an ethernet port and USB port. You can set it up to play photos from folders on your LAN for its ambient mode. It is also a very good media player with pretty good specs in terms of RAM, internal storage, etc. You could likely also transfer a number of photos to the box's internal storage if you preferred.
  4. It looks the driver is an older style c4i driver but it is encrypted. That's too bad as it would have been pretty easy to adapt the driver to add the on and off commands.
  5. You could use the Generic IP driver as I am pretty sure that you can turn an outlet on or off with an HTTP GET, like http://192.168.1.200/outlet?1=OFF - that is assuming that 192.168.1.200 is the IP of the DLU switch. Go into the web UI for the switch and hover over the commands that it shows.
  6. I contacted the person at C4 that I dealt with in the past regarding Universal minidrivers and he said that it is in the backlog of things to get updated.
  7. Can we have a Rogers Xfinity version of the driver as well? It's not like there aren't C4 users in Canada and Rogers has a very large market share, especially since they bought Shaw last year - they would have over 3M subscribers.
  8. I stand corrected, but since I don't have voice remotes in C4 that wouldn't have mattered to me.
  9. Less reason to do it as of today as the name is the same, but the colours are different. I am not sure that this driver has been updated for a while, so that might not be an issue.
  10. For those of us in Rogers territory in Canada - Rogers has rebranded Ignite to Xfinity so now we have the correct name on our driver - although not sure about the right logo yet. What you need to know about Rogers Xfinity - Rogers
  11. In case anyone finds this - they way that I "fixed" this was to route the SPDIF output of the HDMI extractor to an SPDIF to analog audio converter and then plug that into my amp. The amp is one of the older C4 matrix amps that does not have any digital audio inputs, neither SPDIF nor coax. The noise doesn't transfer through the optical connection the way it does over an analog conductor.
  12. Is Ratgdo better than using relays/sensors from a C4- IOX? By the way, Ratgdo is another thing that started in the HA world and has come over to C4. I am pretty sure that I was the first one to post about it in these forums a bit over a year ago.
  13. Thanks Alan - interesting that you now need HA to do stuff in C4. I have played around with HA a bit, running it in a docker container on my Unraid server. Presumably that is sufficient rather than needing Home Assistant Green?
  14. Any update on the best way to do geofencing? I want to open my garage door when I get home - my Tesla Model S used to do this automatically but my new Model Y doesn't have this feature or Homelink. So I am wondering if I can do this in the C4 universe.
  15. [vent]MyQ really is a piece de merde. I am trying to set up my system again and I can't get it to only open one of my two garage doors at a time. It always does both. Apparently to fix this you have to reset the MyQ hub, and reset both door openers. That then means that you have to reprogram remote control openers from scratch. What a pain in the butt.[/vent]
