Matt Lowe got a reaction from Andrew luecke in ElectroMagnetic Locks For Pella Glass Sliding Doors
the proper way is to use an access control system. There is a lot to cover here that is not easily answered in the forums. Life and safety are at risk if not done properly.

Matt Lowe reacted to jesseasmith in New DirecTV Stream IR Driver
This is an IR driver, designed to control the C71KW Android Boxes for DirecTV Stream.
This DirecTV Stream Driver improves on the database version of the DirecTV HR24 in three ways.
1) Play/Pause commands are fixed on my driver. (They don't work properly on the HR24 driver. Either the play or pause doesn't work, and isn't recognized by the C71KW box.)
2) There are no traditional skip buttons on the DirecTV Stream box. It uses arrow left/right to jump along the recordings. My driver replaces the non-functional Skip FWD/Back with the appropriate left/right arrow commands.
3) The Channel # macro's on the HR24 sends an "ENTER" command which opens the MENU on the DirecTV Stream box. I have removed this command, to ensure the DTV Stream just goes straight to the channel instead.

When opens - turn on lights, send notifications, if his/hers customize music etc.
When left open - send reminder, garage heater off
Ability to open - allow access, if detached garage run into in the rain from the house without waiting for the door, forgot keys, if detached warm up car (don't sell this feature)
Ability to close - security, good night, lock up, insulation from temperatures, detached close easily when you forget
Control the power to the opener - lockout when away, classic car, etc.

there is a known issue with some of the c4 matrices. Contact your josh support or dealer to get updated versions.

Matt Lowe got a reaction from Dueport in Josh.AI Audio Response Delay
This is the way. The issue is that even though the matrix is programmed. By default they still for some reason are audio sensing. It is a setting in the driver and is not available in the Composer Gui to change pro or home. With the proper driver, no audio response delay is needed.

Matt Lowe reacted to lippavisual in Audio Continues Playing After Room Shut Off
Nope, it’s a setting within the AVR.

Matt Lowe reacted to lippavisual in Audio Continues Playing After Room Shut Off
So if you don't want your speakers on (think late at night or something), you can still use your TV speakers instead.

Matt Lowe reacted to lippavisual in Audio Continues Playing After Room Shut Off
I'm understanding fully well. It's you who does not comprehend what's happening.
From a Denon manual:
HDMI PassThrough
Selects how this unit will transmit HDMI signals to the HDMI output in standby power mode.
On
(Default):
Transmits the selected HDMI input through the AV receiver’s HDMI output when this unit is in standby power mode.
Off:
No HDMI signals are transmitted through this unit’s HDMI output in standby power mode.

Matt Lowe got a reaction from brucecampbell in Alexa and Roku
You may get some conflicts with commands having them both set up. I would recommend reading the Alexa documentation to see what it can do. It shouldn't be too bad what ever device sends a command to it will just get handled like anything else. As far as what we use we now use josh.ai to do a lot of voice control and they have deep integration into roku. You can just simply ask for a show to play like. Hey, josh watch stranger things season 4 episode 3, or other similar commands. In this case, josh and c4 control the Roku independently. However, josh works tightly with control4 so that multiple of the same commands would be sent and Josh knows that the Roku is in the control4 system so it will properly update all of the relevant navigators. In fact, you can use the Josh app and the control4 app at the same time and they essentially work interchangeably.

Matt Lowe got a reaction from South Africa C4 user in OS 3.3.3
software downloads seemed to have jumped the gun. I don't see an official release notes for it yet. Until that is public can't say much other than it is a .xx release so expect it to be mostly bug fixes and feature enhancements.

Matt Lowe reacted to Cyknight in Gate sensor
🤣 Yes because it's the satisfied people that post reviews the most, not to mention half of them don't even have a Control4 system but are expecting it to work with their Skybell....and complain when it doesn't.
That's not to comment on your experience mind you: but that line just jumped out as hilarious.
Online website and app store 'ratings and reviews' are not an indication of what is 'typical' at all.

Matt Lowe reacted to Andrew luecke in Dual Stereo
You need to downmix from Surround to Stereo. The Voice normally comes through a centre channel, which you don't have (which is why it sounds dim).

Matt Lowe reacted to TFlury in Core5 Serial Ports Problems
I am guessing you are using the 3.5mm ports if you switched to an EA3 to test it. Did you try hitting the null check box just for S&Gs? I have a Core 5 in a project using both RS232 connections with no issues.

This isn't 'programming' this is done via bindings in ComposerPro.

Matt Lowe reacted to alanchow in Control4 Daylight Agent Released - Circadian lighting is here!
Daylight Agent adds circadian lighting to Control4
SnapOne just released the Daylight Agent for Control4. This new agent warms and cools white LED temperatures to the rising and setting of the sun for improved circadian health. By mimicing the color temperatures of natural daylight (waking hours high in blue spectrum/bright and sunsets fall in blue spectrum/warmer/dimmer) artificial lighting helps the body prepare for the day, be most alert when it needs to and prepares the body for rest when its time for sleep.
Chowmain is proud to announce that we have updated our drivers to support the new Daylight Agent. The following drivers now support the new agent
Govee Light Group LIFX Shelly Switchbot TP-Link Kasa WiZ Yeelight Haven't used our drivers before? To ensure customer satisfaction all of our drivers come with a 90 day trial. We also offer 50% discounts on licencing for the homes of integrators employees and FREE showroom licencing for integrators who have showrooms.
