You may need to add a fake tv. Either way you need to set the video endpoint to the correct device to route the signal.

Unfortunately the Control4 media service proxy does not differentiate between watch and listen presses. As such we do not know where you selected the video addons driver from.

Ah yeah that's would work. Thought you wanted it as an attachment.

You'll actually need three emails.

You can probably add in multiple instances of the SMTP driver. That will make it work at the same time

You can use an event with no values. It is case sensitive so make sure you type whatever you have typed into the driver into the IFTTT maker recipe.

Unfortunately for me I had to renovate and convert my garage into an office when my first daughter was born. But yes it is awesome

Experience buttons can be added to watch, listen, comfort, security & services sub menus.

The best way to describe it is as such. You know those Custom Button's Control4 has had for years that you can program anything on. Wouldn't it be great if you could get feedback for those buttons? Well now you can with pretty icons.

Unfortunately the new UIButton proxy isn't as flexible as you think it is. OS 2.9 cannot do any of your feature requests. Trust me if I could I would have already made something like what you're after. you can change the text but images are hard coded into the actual driver itself. If you have any good suggestions that are generic and useful to everyone let me know.

Favorites buttons can be added to Watch/Listen and programmed to start playback of your favorite TV/Radio Channel, Movie or Playlist eg CNN, BBC, Fox FM, Alan's Playlist. Holiday Mode buttons can be used to trigger holiday mode programming whilst the home owners are away. Use the tech support button to send you, the dealer, an email notifying you that the owner requires assistance. Use the nurse call button for aged care based functionality to call the carer. The On/Off buttons and checkbox buttons can be used for various programming including boolean variable manipulation, turning automated tasks on/off and more. Radio buttons can be used to change the state of a number variable. This is useful for mode selection in the home for modes that have more than 2 options. If a mode has two options only please utilise any of the other On/Off based Experience Buttons. Why do you only support OS 2.9 and above? Experience Buttons requires new functionality only available in OS 2.9 and above. It will not work for older versions of OS. Can you add XYZ button to the Experience Button Suite? If its a good idea and generic enough where other dealers will use it then yes. You will need to provide us with an on and off PNG based image at 300x300. If you have obtained or modified any images sourced from someone else please provide any relevant licencing information that we need to abide by. How do I find out more information about the driver?

Both our Kodi Lite and Full drivers integrate the library itself and not any specific storage options. As such you can add in whatever storage you want later on and if the driver is set up correctly Control4 will import the movies from the new storage device. If you plan on using Kodi for more than just movies then you will most likely want to get our Kodi full driver which has better movie library integration, tv show integration, music, addons and more. See link below for more info

No problems.

Since you're using the Sony TV's and the Roku as the Plex clients you technically don't need the NAS connected though its totally upto you on what sources you want.

The driver doesn't have anything to do with that side of it. Your dealer will setup the routing and audio path for you.

Yep you got it right. Sony XBR Android TV's will work with our driver. Note that you need a forked version of the Sony TV drivers which is available for free from our website. You can find it under the Plex Full page and one Plex Full driver per TV (and the roku you're installing). You can also use Plex Home Theater on your NAS if you want. Our driver also works with that. Though for performance reasons you may have processing issues if you are watching something on the Plex Home Theater and someone else wants to watch something on the XBR TV's. Roku for the older KDL TV will work extremely well. Anyway to sum it up you got it right. Hope you enjoy the solution.

I didn't know there was a nest protect driver. thought there was only a thermostat one. learn something new every day.

What he's trying to say is that our IFTTT driver uses pushover as middleware to hand off instant incoming commands to Control4. As such any device or service available on IFTTT can now communicate to Control4 for instant event firing.

Your wife must use the Visa card a lot for it to strobe

Not really a bug. The error you're seeing is if the pushover server gives a 400 error. Most common problem was the Control4_IFTTT device already exists.. well used to be the most common problem until Pushover gave us a secret url parameter that allows us to overwrite the device with a new device. Anyway glad you like the driver. Always keen to see what people are doing with it (one guy did a sports bar where it could change RGB LED's to the teams colour when they score a goal).

Yep someone else did something similar

If you require additional time all of our drivers are designed to reset the trial by deleting and re-adding the driver back into the project. See this thread for other dealer and end user reviews.

IFTTT (an abbreviation of "If This Then That") is a free web-based service that allows users to create chains of simple conditional statements, called "recipes", which are triggered based on changes to other web services and products. IFTTT integration into Control4 allows Control4 to control any of the products or services integrated into IFTTT and have those products also control Control4. This expands the integration of Control4 to support numerous functions that it natively does not do. We have listed a few examples of what integration can bring to Control4 below and have also stepped through programming some of the ones we feel are useful to a lot of people. Note that this is a small list of things we liked. There are a lot of other things you can do currently (with lots more coming in future to IFTTT) so we suggest you check out the channels on the IFTTT website. We are keen to hear about what cool things you have done with the driver. Let us know via twitter, email or forum post. FAQ What can i use this driver for? These are some examples of what you can achieve with IFTTT integration to Control4 via the Chowmain IFTTT maker driver. Outbound Examples (Control4 > IFTTT) Control4 can send SMS’s via your Android phone (IF app must be downloaded to the phone) Control4 can call your phone number and say a message (for security alarms, smoke alarms and other emergencies). Control4 can save data about the events in your home in google docs or dropbox. Control4 can save data about the events in your home to IFTTT’s daily or weekly email digest.

Control4 can send your Tesla (EVE enabled) a message (with subject, message and message type fields) on your car’s dashboard Control4 can turn on or off your GE Smart Appliance and more. Control4 can tell your Android phone to turn on/off Bluetooth or wifi (might be useful when you’re leaving or coming back home). Tell the world via Facebook what your home is upto (might not be a good idea). When batteries are low on your Control4 sensors add a reminder to your IOS reminders app. Inbound Examples (IFTTT > Control4) Amazon Alexa (Amazon Echo, Tap, etc) can send commands to Control4 via voice recognition to do things like turn lights on, play music, house off and more.

Send a warning to Control4 when something has been picked up or moved (needs wireless tag) Your BMW (Connected Drive Compatible) can tell Control4 when it is entering or exiting an area. Your EVE enabled Tesla car can tell Control4 when it has arrived home, is leaving home or on the way home. Your Automatic, Zubie or Dash enabled car can tell Conrol4 when you have turned the car on or off within a certain area. Your GE, LG and Samsung Smart appliances can tell Control4 when it has been turned on, off, if for example an oven timer is done, if there is a leak in the dishwasher, if the filter eeds cleaning, if the dryer cycle has finished, if the fridge door has been left open for too long, Your Nest Protect smoke alarm can send Control4 smoke emergency, warning and carbon monoxide emergencies Your Netatmo Welcome can tell Control4 when a specific person, known person or even an unknown person has been seen or arrives home (facial recognition) Your Roost Smart Battery can tell Control4 (via the announcement agent) when its battery is low (Great for smoke alarms).

Have Control4 read out your meetings (including subject, body & location) on outlook 365 calendar or Google calendar 15 minutes before the meeting (requires Chowmain Advanced Announcements driver) If the temperature (via weather forecast/conditions) changes in your area tell Control4 to do something. Your Android phone can tell Control4 when it has connected or disconnected to/from a specific Wifi network. Change the colours of your RGB LED’s to your teams colour using the ESPN channel when the game starts. Any other cool things about this driver? This driver actually replaces alof of functionality that is native to Control4 but requires a subscription and also implements products and services that alot of other 3rd party paid drivers integrate. As such in certain cases its actually cheaper to utilise this one driver for integration over multiple services/products. Once the driver is installed all the programming can be done via Composer Home Edition. Perfect for Enthusiasts. How does it work? Control4 will send IFTTT triggers to IFTTT based on programming done by the Control4 dealer. IFTTT will send commands back to Control4 via a 3rd party service called pushover. When Control4 receives these commands the dealer needs to program Control4 actions to correspond to the command sent. Please read the installation PDF for specific details.
