    You said you wanted to "shut down all active sessions at bedtime" 

    A session is just a room that is turned on and playing music or watching video. 

    To turn off a session is to turn off a room

     

    That makes sense. I was thinking of it more like a single Pandora stream that happens to be playing in N number of rooms...I wanted to simply cut the stream (cut the head off) and all rooms would stop playing...like how you can click the Power icon in the top right? on a touchscreen and simply kill the steam...which turns off the stream in all rooms.

    But I can start thinking of it as you describe.

    Thanks a ton

    1: Room Control driver. Add all rooms to it (or whatever rooms you want)

    2: Create an event in scheduler to execute at whatever time you want

    3: program when that schedular event executes, turn off that room in the room control driver that you added all rooms to

    Takes about 70 seconds

     

    Thanks for the suggestion...I have the room control driver installed...but I still didn't think turning off a room was the right way as I wanted direct access to the active session. I think my computer science programming background is making my OCD go into overdrive.

  3. What is the best way to pragmatically stop an active session which happens to be playing in multiple rooms?

    Specifically, someone in the house plays Pandora and puts it in 3-4 rooms, and inevitably all room's volumes are turns down...so no one knows that Pandora is actually playing.

    We go to bed and the morning alarm radio doesn't work...because it sees that Pandora is already active and playing. 

    I would like to shut down all active sessions at bedtime.

    I believe I could generically just turn off all rooms...but that doesn't feel right. I feel like there should be access to Active Sessions, and simply kill the session...and that would stop playing in whatever rooms it's currently playing in. Am I thinking of this all wrong?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks 

  4. I have a "Low Volt" switch that simply tells my fireplace to turn off or on.

    The back of the current switch simply has 1 line into the switch and another line out of the switch. I was told by my electrician, that it is a "Low Volt" switch. He basically grabbed the switch and was touching all over it and said "see it doesn't shock you". Freaked me out.

    Would the "Wireless 0-10V Dimmer" work?

    Thanks

  5. Give this a try...I JUST did this on a Card Access Motion Sensor...maybe it'll work for you...no promises

    To remove the Wireless Motion Sensor from a Zigbee PRO network and restore factory settings:

    1. Remove the battery

    2. Press & Hold the ID button while putting the battery back in

    3. Continue to hold the ID button until LED turns solid amber

    4. Release the ID button. The Motion Sensor is now restored to factory configuration.

  6. I am having issues with using the "Network File Storage" driver. 

    No matter what I do I can't seem to get it to connect, but it appears that I have full access to the shared folders when I use Windows Explorer, etc.

    It's probably something stupid I'm not doing, but I can't figure it out.

    Any direction/recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

    FYI - I am 100% certain that I used the same credentials in both Composer and Windows Explorer

    FYI 2 - all I'm really trying to do is get access to my iTunes music so that I can use "My Music"...so this is a non-issue if there is a better/easier way. And yes, all my music is in ACC format and not protected.
