  1. Interesting, never thought about replacing camera in my liftmaster. Anyone do this before? Any recommendations?
  2. Alan: Can you view or access the camera for the smart openers from Liftmaster? Thanks!
  3. Question for those that have used the ratgdo and the new myq driver. Which is better or provides more?
  4. To say yes you can talk to the test dealers and then no IS MORE THAN suspicious. Regardless, they are hiding something. Time will tell what it is.... Could be good for some, others not so.... we shall see....
  5. This conversation is VERY interesting and already shows SNAP has a marketing/perception problem before any of this even begins....WOW! Transparency avoided right below! Done for a reason... Fishy or suspicious by someone who covers and reports monthly on integration will only lead to more problems. We shall see how their avoidance shakes out.... (I guarantee any of those dealers won't dare speak negatively now if fear of their business etc...) Ashame. ==================== So I asked to be provided with the list of the 23 integrators who were on the advisory panel and who were instrumental in designing this manufacturer program. I wanted to reach out to them to hear about it from their perspective and in their own words. Heyman responded, “I think that’s a reasonable ‘ask’.” He went on to add, “So I think it reasonable that you speak with them… We’ll come back to you on that.” My ‘Reasonable’ Request was Denied I asked that question directly to John Heyman and Graham Jaenicke face-to-face (on a Google Meet video call). Several days later, I received an email from their outside public relations person cheerfully informing me that the company had decided to host a panel discussion with members of the advisory board. I will have the opportunity to question them there. The company has also helpfully rewritten its press release to now include direct quotes from three of the panel members. I am welcome to use them freely. Hmmmm…something’s starting to sound fishy. In other words, my request was denied. Suspicious: Denying a Request the CEO Called ‘Reasonable’ I did not expect that – a shorter sub-list perhaps, but a denial was not on my radar screen. It appears that Snap One wants to be there when I question these folks – whose thoughts will be provided at an event organized by the company. And who would of course be aware of the presence of the Snap One executives. That was disappointing… I find this all a little suspicious. If everything related to the advisory panel was as presented to me, what possible reason could there be to not provide me with direct access?
  6. Thanks! I'm wondering if Composer HE or Pro would change on the client side (given increase in guaranteed revenue to C4 and a dealer of record). I think as someone else said, it will consolidate dealers within a year or so.
  7. What are the actual numbers for each service whether its monthly or yearly?
  8. Interesting concept but I agree, very vague....maybe by design to see if it will actually work because it will segment who purchases and stays updated. Maybe will actually lead them to fix or produce products that actually work as advertised for all/each user (i.e. Halo voice). Vague to possible pivot if its a disaster... Time will tell.
  9. This a great news! Please keep us updated on progress.
  10. Anyone see the new Josh info? Josh remote looks neat!
  11. Forgive the reflections, it’s so sunny!
  12. Tried to PM you but message box full. How much for a touchscreen?
  13. Are they the 7”? I just need a white 7” in wall. I have the box in the wall from construction but not back box so that helps.
  14. Yes, I would be interested in the tuner if you wish to sell. DM me
  15. I went from an HC-800 to a Core-3 and haven't seen any differences but its nice to be on 3.3
  16. I do believe that when migrating from 10.6 to OS 3.3.1 if not done correctly can produce crazy results. I'm having all kinds of problems. My dealer couldn't get it working so someone from C4 tech support did it....still not working correctly and wonder if I should just start over with a new project or get another dealer to see about fixing. I never had issues with 10.6, now all kinds of weird things. I too have a core3 and see high usage but figured it that was normal.
  17. I have an HC800 and a wireless music bridge. Anyone interested before going to ebay? DM me offer.
  18. EOL for controllers is a non issue especially when they are 10 years old. I would assume it would be at 4 or 5 years. In a specific (niche) market and in technology this is even more the case. No one makes you upgrade. Windows 95 was replaced 3 years later with Windows 98 and all support dropped in 2001 (6 years later for Win95). Stinks yes, no updates, but you can still use it....just not any new games, etc... just like using the hc800 and staying on a previous OS; if you want more flexibility, utilize more components (audio matrix, video matrix, i/o extender, controller) but in the end you'll need to upgrade to extend the functionality esp as new products are developed that integrate. This debate pops up every now and then, but really is no debate at all. Moore's law is alive and well and I can't wait to see what else is coming...I'm glad they are writing new code and being innovative (and should change more often but thats just me). Love the new remotes! Can't wait to get them.
  19. New Remotes; Tomorrow; the Teaser is from CEPRO; No announcements until tomorrow.
  20. Can you provide the company's info so future people with the issue have someplace to turn to? Thanks!
  21. Thanks! Definitely need something rack mountable so thanks for the suggestions. I miss having all my local stations available.
  22. Call me old but awhile back my C4 tuner died so I didn't replace, but now am thinking I want one. What audio tuners work with C4? (I know their are streaming etc...but I just want the old fashioned audio tuner). Thanks!
  23. Anyone have these for sale?
