    Gary Leeds UK got a reaction from tdougray in New Halo and Halo Touch Remotes   
    I think the issue could be over marketing by C4 and the fact it starting to look like another Neeo 
    it’s like they have released a production vision with beta software and asking there customers to test it for them. 
     
    fingers crossed it will all come right in the end

    Greenfield Solutions drivers will be revamped and available on Driver Central soon!  Exciting changes coming that I think everyone will be excited by.

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Cyknight in New Halo and Halo Touch Remotes   
    But the bigger question is what actual devices will they be able to control.
    Honestly to me the Halo as a 'google home/alexa' alternative endpoint isn't all that interesting. That overall voice service as well integration is rather limited.
    Where voice would/will shine is the ability to voice control/select very specific things like 'Show me the latest episode of [xyz]' or 'Start [insert movie title]' or 'Go to channel [123]'
    Xfinity would be the next 'device' that comes out AFAIK, but will we have Roku voice support? Shield/AndroidTV? What about all the other set top boxes across the world? Will Xfinity only work on Comcast, needing specific driver development for other providers that use the same hardware?

    It will certainly be the biggest reason overall, which in and of itself will hang on how well it will work, and what devices will be supported

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Andrew luecke in Scheduled reboot   
    Restarting the controller using a reboot driver is a terrible idea.
    And before someone mentions it, rebooting it via hard reset of power by schedule is even worse. That being said, it is a common request, but it shouldn't be necessary and certainly isn't recommended.
    If you're doing it as a backup mechanism if the controller crashes, my recommendation would be to use a pdu with a mechanism built in to ping the controller and reboot when it's offline (but, it should wait a minimum of 1hr offline to ensure that it won't reboot during an upgrade). Wattbox is an example but there are plenty of others (Alan could confirm, but maybe Gude can do it too).
    There's no reason to schedule rebooting on regular basis, and it's asking for trouble. I wouldn't recommend it

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to dlaugh in Remote Programming etc for you DIY Guys   
    I have been using these fellows to troubleshoot issues with a system in a house I've moved into.  They've been great, including with a couple of especially thorny problems -- integrating a TV that did not want to play nice with the rest of the system, and resuscitating a piece of hardware the old owners weren't using so I could further expand the system.
    Top recommendations all around!

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Alt in HC800 replacement decision criteria   
    I would not upgrade my HC800 to an EA series controller at this point. I still have a HC800 running 3.2.4 and it's great. The processor in the HC800 is a work horse.  I would be tempted to upgrade to a Core 3/5 in the future though, once new remotes drop and new features are added. jm2c!

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to ChrisHenderson in macOS: Control4.app generates huge container file while running   
    We have a fix and it seems to be working well. It will also automatically shrink the systems.realm file for good measure. I will PM you an invite to test it out. It is a bug for iOS too. It is not just a bug with the macOS app.

    For the same reason the Neeo is wifi: You can't transmit images over Zigbee (cover art for 'now playing', device icons, MSP icons, etc.).

    With Software 3.3 you can use the colour wheel 
    So change the bulbs and bridge to colour 
    get your dealer to insert the new driver and you have a colour wheel - Great Fun

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Mr.barillas in New Control4 Remotes coming 2021?!   
    The New Remotes Should Be all on Zigbee, so they don't rely on external agents.  Like congested Wifi or IP router problems.
    too many issues with those NEO remotes, to be honest, most cases we  stick to the SR260
    BUT NOW IS TIME TO MOVE ON.

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Darin, PM C4 CX Platform in C4 IOS today’s update bring in faster experience   
    We discovered a bug that caused push notifications to become unregistered in some cases which would lead to not receiving incoming call.  We just submitted a 322.20.0 build with a fix to Apple and it will be available as soon as it makes it through their review process. 

    If you'd like early access to this build you can get it from TestFlight here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/bI6oH4Gu
