  1. @mallom - your driver totally worked like a charm. My dealer was able to implement it without any issues, and coupled with Insignia's "input signal sensing" setting, we were able to fix the problem. Many thanks!
  2. That makes sense Cody, and is exactly what is making this lower end TV a problem. Insignia supports an input signal sensing mode, but that would work if only the unit would recognize the fact that there are only 2 inputs in use. It continually adds a "default" input labeled "TV" as the first input in addition to the HDMI and Component inputs I am using which ruins the chances of a simple "Toggle Input" macro from working.
  3. Thanks @mallom - my dealer is going to give your driver a try over the weekend. Thanks so much. If he can't do it, it would be great if one of you would be willing to work with me on it, for a fee, obviously. PM me if any of you would be open to that.
  4. Cody, I wish I even knew what that meant when I was considering buying this tv : ) Should have know better than to think ANYTHING would be easy with Control4 : (
  5. Thanks @mallom - we'll give this driver a try and see what happens. One issue is that there aren't settings in the Insignia firmware that allow/restrict the tv to scan inputs to detect a signal. We are simply trying to alternate between 1 HDMI inout and 1 Component input. But it looks at the other three inputs that aren't in use and stops there. @CyKnknight - to your point, the Insignia firmware does auto-jump inputs that it doesn't see a signal on, which is irritating. Interesting approach re: the Logitech hex codes. Sounds like a long drawn out process to find one of those remotes, but worth a shot.
  6. My project has been running flawlessly until recently, when I swapped out an older tv with a new LCD Insignia model. My dealer and I could really use some help. Here's the issue: the standard C4 driver for Insignia allows for the tv to go on and off, but it is not successfully switching inputs between video sources, so we have to use the separate insignia remote to change inputs. The C4 driver hasn't been updated in a few years, so I am wondering if we need to entertain a custom driver. Here's a thread in URC codes that Insignia supports... http://community.insigniaproducts.com/t5/Televisions/Insignia-TV-Remote-Control-Codes-Official-Thread/td-p/24094 can any of you provide some guidance here?
  7. Got it. So, I'd love to hear ideas from dealers here on how a dealer can remote into my network and complete this 5-7 minute task. My suggestion?: - I install Composer Pro on my machine - Let dealer remotely access my desktop, authenticate the installed copy of Composer Pro, do what they need to do. - before end of session, I delete the software But, we all know the above would never happen. Instead, I need to screw around waiting days for a dealer to prioritize coming on-site to perform a 5-7 minute task (identifying, at least).
  8. in the past, I've simply been onsite to press the identify button at the right time while a dealer is logged in remotely. Not sure why that wouldn't work.
  9. Thanks @cyknight If you are open to a brief assist with identification and software update from 2.3 to 2.5.3, PM me with your rate and availability...happy to pay via PayPal or other method.
  10. Hey, all Wondering if someone can help me troubleshoot here. My controller's network card fried, and I am now connecting an identical model replacement controller that was replaced via RMA. In theory, an end-user should at least be able to register the new controller on an account, but I'm running into issues. I have two initial questions: Should an end-user be able to complete the controller registration process with Composer Home Edition? Is "identifying" the device in the project something that can only be accomplished with Composer Pro?The controller has OS 2.3 on it, and using Composer HE 2.3, I can access the "account services" window. When it initially loads, the status field shows the following error message: "No response to check in request. VPN connection may be invalid." Upon entering the controller registration code, I get a different error message in a dialog window: "Error activating controller: GenerateCert failure. Generation of certificate failed. Connections for Director are still being established. Please re-identify the controller and then complete registration." In the boot log file, I'm seeing the following error, as well, and not sure if they are related: up=1OKERROR: Interface not found.OKeth0OK Does my dealer need to identify the device first, and THEN we can register it?
