Aha! I've found the issue and it will be fixed in the next release

Aha! I've found the issue and it will be fixed in the next release

The driver is now released on BlackWire Designs!
https://www.blackwiredesigns.com/store/control4-text-to-speech/
This Text to Speech driver lets you send announcements around your Control4 system with a few taps!
You can use our built in web interface to type your own message, use our Control4 “Listen” service to
type in a message right from your Control4 app, or use Composer programming to execute announcements
when you want!
Media service integration Web interface Use variables in programming Google Cloud & VoiceRSS Text to Speech Engines Modify speed & language for TTS Engines %date% and %time% values manipulated Last message variable I hope you like it  
Please note this is a separate driver to the early "freebie". You shouldn't update the existing one if you are using it; instead you should add this as a new driver.

Let's not turn this into one of those please...
The driver will be available on BlackWire Designs.

The driver will hopefully soon be going onto DriverCentral for sale. The updated driver will have Google Cloud Text to Speech built in as well as various other changes and a few bug fixes. If you have already downloaded the free version then you can go ahead and use it but as stated earlier - support is limited for it.
The decision to sell the driver was made as it means we can put more work into future drivers.

Hiya
I've just finished creating a Text to Speech driver with all sorts of support for how you can get your messages announced!
Setup is super simple. Follow the documentation and I've timed it at under 2 minutes!
The ways you can use the driver are through programming text (and variables) to be spoken out; through it's built in web interface (which allows you to choose a custom port [for port forwarding]), through the Listen menu where you just need to enter the text you wish to be announced!
Media service integration Voice messages (PA system) Multi room support Web interface Use variables in programming Google Cloud & VoiceRSS Text to Speech Engines Modify speed & language for TTS Engines %date% and %time% values manipulated Last message variable

This driver provides an easy way to setup images with Control4 push notifications. The driver supports authentication with both types (Basic & Digest). This will let you setup any camera snapshots to be shown in a Control4 push notification! Your camera driver does not need to be updated for this to work.
All you need is the snapshot URL, the authorization type (if required), the username and the password!

(That notification was triggered manually, hence nobody at the gate)

Hi,
Here is a quick driver that has a few commands you can use for your DS2 programmatically.
The current commands that can be run are:
Enable Day Mode Enable Night Mode Disable Camera API Auth Set Camera Brightness Set Camera Saturation Why? Well I've been having issues (and some others have as well) with the DS2 not working with "Auto" settings for day/night mode. So you can use this driver and C4 scheduler to set the day/night mode at sunrise and sunset.
You can also use the disable camera API auth command with the generic image url attachments driver and run the disable camera api auth command every time the project loads. Bit long winded, but it seems like the best option for now.

Version 2
Added set camera brightness/saturation

Which is unfortunate. I wish they could be DEVICE specific. My wifes favorites are much different than mine.

Big thanks to @Shivam Paw who picked up on my problem,  accessed my system remotely and solved the problem in 20 minutes.  I certainly cannot complain about the service on a free driver! 

Did you know that if you tap to either side of the volume sliders current position you can increment or decrement the volume by 1?

I'm hesitant to add the camera mode functionality at the moment because of how the DS2 driver won't update through camera setting changes but will look into it as I agree, could be helpful!
jooced_ds2_misc_commands.c4z

One thing that I would have expected by now (given the lengthy OS3 beta) would have been a whole host of (great) OS3 only drivers from some of the main driver developers like @alanchow @msgreenf @annex⁴ @Cinegration @seth_j @pbir
So I have been surprised to see none of this as yet. Although hats off to @Shivam Paw for the first such driver.
Hopefully there are many of these in the pipe line!

Well it turns out that the workaround for DS2s is temporary as C4 AutoConfig reverts the api Auth to basic every restart. 
As far as I can tell at the moment, the notification proxy doesn’t allow for a url to have any Auth attached to it but I’m looking into a few ways to get around this. 

Ok so I couldn't find a solution to this so here's a driver that lets you programatically set the day/night mode of a DS2 camera.
Enter the DS2 IP in properties and then just head over to the programming commands to sort out when you want it to turn to day/night mode. I've set mine up using the scheduler to set to day at sunrise and night at sunset.
(It uses the default admin and password of admin/t0talc0ntr0l4! so if you are using a different one it won't work because i hardcoded them in...if you need another version which lets you set that in properties lemme know but im guessing this will suffice for most/all?)
