Unfortunately, there isn't.  The universal mini app does not work for LG TVs ( I have 2 - 2020 and 2021 models).  

I picked up a TCL 55" Roku TV for our guest bedroom during Black Friday.  Used the free Control4 Roku TV driver.  Works very well.  Only issue I have is with the stop/play/pause function.  I have to use the select button instead.  So not a big issue but wish they worked as expected.  Using Wifi without issues (I would have prefered LAN but couldn't make the run)

Should already be a universal HBO Max driver available. 

There is but unfortunately it doesn’t work with my LG modes. It works for Rokus but won’t map to the LG displays. All running WebOS 3.0 - 2019 and 2020 models. 

I don't think Control4 is releasing new LG mini drivers.  I would love mini drivers for HBO Max and Apple TV+.  We have to select Netflix and then click on Menu to find the app we want.  It works but an extra step.

Salam Zuhair.. Is the call for prayer driver working fine for you? 

Ahmed - it's working fine for me.  If you're having issues, I would reach out to your dealer or the developer for support.

As the title says.

Also - if anyone has them, need 6 C4-KA-WH keypads. 

I have one. Send me a message

Want to buy a zigbee extender. If anyone has 1 that they aren’t using. 

It hasn't been released yet and they haven't announced a release date.  When I asked them, they said sometime in 4Q but we all know delays are to be expected especially with the current situtation.  

Assuming you're getting the Automate Pulse 2.  Found it here https://www.avoutlet.com/window-treatments/shade-components/motorized/remote-controls/rollease-pulse-2-mobile-device-interface/.  I ordered a lot of my shade parts from them and they have been great to work with.

blindster.com is the blind company. They are out of houston. incredible prices and really nice quality. Example - 70"x70" motorized roller 5% shade was $425 shipped. The same for hunter douglas was over $1,000... that's why i'm hoping for a solution to work these blinds. 

 

Yes - I know.  I actually ordered their roman shades and did a retrofit with Somfy RTS motors.  Wanted to know if they really use Rollease motors since it seems that there is a bridge that can integrate with Control4.  Please let us know if you get it working with Control4 either way.  

I have mine integrated using Bond and their working great.  We want to purchase more and I really don't want to do another retrofit.  And like you, I looked at Graber and Hunter Douglas and both were 2x-3x times more expensive.  Plus I was able to purchase the SOMFY Sonesse 30 WireFree (Li-Ion) RTS Rechargeable motors for less than $100 each.

Hey Guys,

So i bought a few bond bridges since they work with C4 and are able to control RF signals. Well, thought it would be that easy, but it wasn't. C4 programming was easily able to work with Bond, Bond easily connected with the remote, but the app wouldn't connect to the blinds. I contacted Bond and they said that their bridge could recognize, but not work with the remote. I gave them the FCC ID and they told me in 1 min. Does anyone know any other bridges that could work in this application? Blindster.com blinds are inexpensive, but awesome... so trying to save some money on 32 of them in the house. 

Which blinds did you order and do they actually have the Rollease motors?  Asking because I went through a retrofit effort on their roman shades with Somfy RTS motors.  It's working but I wouldn't recommend it.

Been using the Bond driver to control my shades (Somfy RTS motors) and it's working great.  Wish there was 2-way feedback but understand that's not always possible.  I saw that Bond is releasing a Pro version and wanted to know what changes we might see from a Control4 perspective (if anyone knows).

Thanks @OceanDad, I will check them out.

@vstarI'm in Texas, USA. Thanks.

Since you're in Texas, another 1 to check out is Smith Thompson.  They monitor my DSC alarm.  No contracts and they included the cellular module.  I've added contact sensors, glass break detectors and touch panels that they monitor.

OK, but what does the C4 compatible Zigbee stack add so much to the price?  Almost tripling the price in this instance.

I've had dealers tell me the same thing.  They don't understand why C4 sets the price so high on these.  I don't like it myself and even had my Yale zigbee card go bad once (very rare for this to happen).  Thankfully it was still under warranty and they replaced it immediately for me.  

I have 2 of the Yale Touchscreen locks and 2 Kwikset locks all on Control4.  The 2 Yale locks are protected due to covered porches - front and back.  1 of the Kwiksets is exposed to the elements in Southern Texas so the heat wears on the finish.  I've seen a Yale lock do the same.

I personally like the Yale locks better since they respond to C4 much faster.  There is a slight delay on the Kwiksets.

So the Zigbee 916 lock is US$145 on Amazon, but US$400 from a C4 dealer?  Do I have that right?

The ones from Amazon won't work with Control4.  Not the same Zigbee stack.

That sounds like all you need.  I only care about open or closed, I don't care about partial position.  How do you sense the open or closed?  Magnetic contacts?

Yep - forgot the mention that.  Using some garage contact sensors.  Can't remember where I got them from but they were less than $20.

Do you have accurate door position reporting?  Do you know when the door(s) are open and closed?  That's what I miss without proper MyQ integration as you then have to integrate a bunch of other stuff like one sensor and one relay per door.

I can't report on door position but for my use case, it's just 1 large door that is either fully open or fully closed.  And yes I can see if it's open or closed and it's fully integrated with C4.  This was my solution and meets my needs.

I gave up on integrating my MyQ garage door.  Hardwired a spare remote to a Card Access relay and for under $80, I'm done.  Works 100% of the time.  Going on 2 years without any issues.

If you can remember, please post your experience when ths happens.

Also - what do you mean when you say you "still need IE or IE extension for Chrome"?

Meaning, until the new firmware is available, I'll still need to use IE or an IE extension I'm using for the Chrome browser.

I'm also on the 501, and it's only a couple of years old so I'm very annoyed that they'd not support this. I hope it's just that they haven't completed it yet. It's possible that the 501 doesn't have the hardware or other features necessary to make the plugin-less version work. I understand they can't support old things forever, but this is a pretty new device and it's effectively broken for Mac users. The irony is I went with Luma specifically because they promoted their Mac support. Alternatively, porting the iOS app to MacOS (if done competently) would suffice.

I received confirmation from support that they will be making this version available for the NVR 501 models.  Unfortunately, can't test until then and still need IE or IE extension for Chrome.

I am but using the NVR 501 which does not support this firmware.  Not sure if Snap will make this functionality available on older models but hoping they will since IE will probably go away before I retire my NVR.

Really hope that you were using an ethernet cable from the start.   My default is to hardwire unless it's impossible.
