  1. For Tuya - they aren’t false notices. When my controller reboots I just get a message with their current state. But still wakes me up regardless.
  2. i have the same issue with the now discontinued Tuya agent with my Tuya water sensors. Sure its no big deal, except when my controller reboots overnight and I get urgent notices, that bypass my silence notification, saying I have a water leak, when I dont. I was told they are not developing any more for the Tuya agent/driver as it is not for sale anymore, so I am SOL and get woken up 1-3x a year.
  3. this - as a very part time / hobby photographer I found taking a photo of a key element in the room better. For instance, we got some fancy "hand painted" dish on a vacation in Morocco and we use it on our kitchen island. I tossed some oranges/lemons/limes in the bowl and took a photo, done....For the master bathroom I put the purple LED lights on in the shower (its a steam shower and has colored lights) and took a photo of the shower stall with the door closed right after a steam so the glass is frosted, the lights on are behind with a cool glow, etc. For the garage you could even use a stock photo of your car(s) or something. In the gym I took a photo of two dumbbells laying on the floor, etc. Another idea, if you have a pet, take a photo of them on a couch or in a bed for a specific room, etc. Taking a photo of the room is just going to look like junk or a really bad real estate listing.
  4. 95% sure I purchased that item and it worked I had some older kwikset locks I purchased thru C4 and they had red cards, but they were also on a very old firmware and couldn't be updated anymore. The yellow one allowed for me to go from like 1.x to 3.x or something, its been 18 months so I forget all the small details but later today I can try to go back and look in the lock itself and/or emails between me and my integrator.
  5. I am not lipp but I have the set up he mentioned with remote TStats The walls look nicer (remote t stats are painted over) and for the most part with schedules there is not much of a need to interact with the tstats. once in a blue moon if we have to, we can pull up a phone or a touchscreen.
  6. I’ve had c4 for 11 years. Only upgraded controllers and touchscreens for the new UI which was a personal choice and again I was 8-9 years in when I made that upgrade so can’t complain about support and longevity. knock on wood still have original Amps, matrix, sr250 remotes, tons of lighting kit, etc. depending on your system 20k may be extreme or if it’s all 1.7 embernet stuff then yeah you got your use out of it! Don’t service a 15 year old car with 200k miles or get a new car?
  7. do you want integration or do you want a stand alone video/intercom system? I mean this is far flung - but now that C4 is going to have a paid support line, maybe they will open up more settings for end users - end users mess things up, they call up C4, they mess up more, pay for the bigger support packages, more money for C4 I dunno, its a pipe dream but one of the reasons in the past people said they wouldn't open it up more was lack of support and what if your system crashed due to your doing and its 8pm on a Friday. well now, you can call C4 support. Dont have C4 support, pay for it, then call up....
  8. ill play around later - im guessing its not a bad speaker as both speakers are having the same issue, so maybe picking up some interference somewhere. I have an open channel on another c4 amp so I am going to move the zone there for now and see what happens. if i still get the white noise I guess its new interference but thats odd because in 10 years no much (if anything) as changed and never had interference in this area before
  9. got one of those ground loop things - it at least lessens the white noise so when you walk by you do not hear it, but if you put your ear up to the speaker, it is still there...I turned the input sensitivity knob down to ~30% (Was up to about 60%) and that made no difference either
  10. https://www.amazon.com/rca-ground-loop-isolator/s?k=rca+ground+loop+isolator any particular kind? some have cables off each end (1 male, 1 female), others have female inputs on one end and male cables on the other....I guess they all accomplish the same task? this would sit between the matrix and amp?
  11. got some homework tonight after work - thanks!
  12. good idea, just tried, didn't work. played a song, ended it by turning off the zone, and still white noise
  13. I have the model of amp prior to the release of Triad branded ones (forget the model #, its a 4 channel). One of my zones is showing some issues where I get white noise when the music is turned off. If I remove the speaker wire to the amp, noise stops (duh) I swapped RCA Cables (amp/matrix connection) and white noise stopped until I started up a music stream, listened to a song, and turned it off, now the white noise is back Signs of an amp going bad? Something in programming where the zone is just not shutting off? Something with my Audio Matrix (Using Video Storm CMX audio matrix)?
