    Yes... MiniApps will hopefully be coming soon in a later release, we just wanted to get the core driver out as quickly as we could.

    Amr got a reaction from BXTR in Unifi / Ubiquiti Control 4 Issues. I am ready to just give up and feel defeated.......   
    You have a setup/configuration issue and for sure your network suffers from a broadcast storm, u need professional help, I would decrease the number of AP’s and turn on roaming for a seamless network coverage, the less AP’s the better and faster network performance!
    Also put your 2.4GHz back to 20MHz and 5GHz back to 40/80MHz don’t use this 160MHz!

    Hi all, everyone who has an existing tvOS 13 and 14 driver with us should have received an email from us today with an update (assuming you have consented to emails from us). Our tvOS 16 driver is now available and offered free of charge to everyone with a license for the tvOS 13 and 14 driver. Simply download the driver files here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ahph4k23axdm6lo/AACEcDlO_0l7PnEr3Vxvl2WVa?dl=0 and follow the integration note to ensure correct installation of the driver.
    We know this has taken a lot longer than anticipated and we can only apologise for that - if we could have got the driver out sooner we would have done. It is offered now free of charge for anyone with an existing driver license that still requires it and isn't using an alternative. 
    If you'd like to find out more about the driver you can do so here - https://www.intrinsicdev.com/downloads/apple-tv-4k-tvos-16-driver-for-control4/
    Our driver is offered as an option. There are other options available for Control4 and we always recommend discussing with your client the pros and cons of each integration solution to ensure they're fully informed.

    Many ways but you can do the following:
    - Connect BS server output to any input of any EA u have in the project and can stream that to your speakers setup, depending on what u have
    - Connect BS server output to an input of your audio matrix so u have this as an audio source
    I have the Node 2 and am steaming music natively this way to my setup wither via audio matrix or any Amp/speakers I have in my home!

    Already done!  I helped @Steve7485yesterday.  We upgraded from 2.9.0 to 3.3.1, added the modern forms fans, added Sonos, removed the programming and also unbound the keypad buttons from the load so that the fans can’t be turned off!  Pretty successful and all in about 45 min

    Amr got a reaction from Andrew luecke in Apple TV Icons Missing?   
    If you renamed the driver you will face that, if renaming the Alt version and updating the driver you will lose the original graphics in exchange for a CD. To fix this, remove the driver all together, add it again correctly and refresh navigators, just be careful as you will lose bindings with this, so add the proper driver and I suggest you use the Alt version from Jesse driver, re-bind, remove the existing driver.

    Okay make sense, but your performance boost is not related to removing sharebridge rather the Ping driver!  Am pretty sure if u put sharibridge back nothing will happen!

    Amr got a reaction from wnpublic in Moving house, wanting to try a different platform...   
    Gentlemen I had the best of both worlds! Everything is controlled via C4, all programing logic is there, am not convinced with anything else, I also have a decent dealer.
    The DIY side resides in two parts, continuously upgrading non C4 components; network/cams/speakers/Streamers, etc, things that are easily done via ComposerHE, the other side is tapping into MQTT world and integrating a lot of these devices to C4, this part after getting the driver is maintained by me, once you are settled there is little to be done, but overall no one tinkers forever!

    Putting DIY vs professional HA systems aside, the Geofencing/Occupancy is of great importance and I wish we can advance in this area, I find Apple Geofencing is the closest to practice, not yet that accurate but for a commercial system its acceptable to me, 30m and closer to my house the Garage Door Icon Pops up in my CarPlay system is as cool as hell, not ideal but closer to life, I just hit Open when am < 10m, by the time I'm there the door's open, this wasn't there 2 years ago, I believe huge advancements can be achieved, I wish RoomMe comes up with better hardware or a competing technology emerges!

    I went the full extreme, deployed an EA1/CA1 @ my summer house, just to get rid of all these remotes in Family/Master Rooms, I have 3 TV's only, added a Soundbar with a built in FTV, a couple of Sonos speakers for distributed Audio, a projector for backyard nights and A/C automation with Sensibo, through some R260 Remotes and some GlobalCache for ZIR, no T3/T4 just Android desktops and life is so good

    One thing that is lovely with HomeKit is auto-switching of homes by location, something I wish C4 would consider, but the use case is very weak I guess!

    Experimenting with a 'key code entry' UI button tonight and remembered this thread so figured I'd share.
    Built the below (video) which cycles through the state of all 'numbers' on the virtual pad in navigator.
    Enter code correctly (1-3-5 in this case) and it 'unlocks' (enabling functionality) Enter incorrectly, e.g., out of order, wrong length, etc., goes to off Select while 'unlocked' and it goes to off/'locked'  Could of course tweak the concept, e.g., # of buttons, visual style, etc. If anyone's interested, happy to send.
