  1. Dymo rhino 5200, different tape sizes, colours and materials available, 12mm wide, black on white, flexible nylon are my go to, I’ve never seen them fall off or fade over time, comes with a great hard case for when you take it on site too 

  2. That is a good point, I hadn’t thought of that. On the topic of changing/editing programming though, the new way of replacing a line of code with another by holding shift makes this so much easier, it’s saved me so much time since they introduced that feature, I also love that you can select the whole script for copying and pasting now instead of just one line 

  3. I think you could do this easier and without the need for a variable. If your in the programming tab and scroll down the device actions pane on the right hand side, find the scheduler at the bottom and you can add a conditional for time at the top of script,  that would save you a whole bunch of other programming, setting of variables etc

    How do you find it for Sky in general? 

    How do you fast forward for example?

    And is Guide a hard button? I use it a lot on Sky obviously.

    I'm finding it great to use with Sky, I'm the same as you in that guide is probably my most used button, by default guide appears on the touchscreen but using chowmains sky driver you can remap buttons, I mapped guide to the menu button on the remote control so now I do have a hard guide button, doing this made it so much better to use. Fast forward and all other transport buttons are on the touchscreen, I thought it would be annoying having to swipe to another screen for transport but it really hasn't bothered me, it might take you an extra half second to pause a show but its not a big deal, once your on that screen it doesn't change so you don't need to keep swiping back to it. I picked up my 260 yesterday just to try using it again and it felt huge and clunky,  its funny how quickly you get used to something when you use it every day

  5. So the issue is with having the word "back" on the remote instead of "cancel"?

    That's fair enough if that's what your used to, but as someone who's had to answer the question "why does it say CNCL instead of back?" for years, I prefer it saying back

    I want it to be a "CANCEL" button - that's what is used the most with Dish Network.

    Does it not do the same thing? cancel on my SR260 does the same thing as back on my Neeo

    this sounds like more of a driver limitation than a problem with the remote

    can't you re-map the buttons in the dish driver?

  7. I’ve had it almost two weeks now and I love it, I use it everyday for sky (sat) and regularly for Apple TV and fire stick, I use the chowmain driver for sky so I remapped the hard menu button to the guide function, once I did that the neeo is a dream to use, I’m not a channel surfer though, I always go to guide and scroll down using channel up/down. I might have to swipe the screen to get to the transport controls every now and again but the overall user experience of the neeo makes up for that extra step, for me anyway. The hard back button on the remote works exactly how I would expect it to on all sources, not sure what more people could want from a back button.

    just got mine today, only thing that doesnt show up for me is the comfort or security screen i have door locks and cams, dont expect the cams to work but expect the same options i have on my sr-260. Didn't know if anyone has seen this remote yet or played with it? And as far as programming not many options.

    I haven’t got locks on my C4 but I think I read somewhere if you favourite the lock to the room it will show up on the Neeo. Comfort is coming in an update fairly soon  apparently.

    This is sterling work.

    Now can you do the apparently impossible and replicate this for Amazon Fire sticks/boxes? They too have app control which works smoothly, so it seems like there must be a similar way of controlling via that protocol rather than the useless ADB method currently employed by the IP driver... say it is so!

    You'll be well rewarded if you manage to pull it off!

     

     

    Just a recommendation for anyone freshly updating to the new OS and installing this driver, go into [ settings > remotes ] and revert the "Home Button" behaviour to Home Screen instead of ATV App. Otherwise the behaviour of the CNCL button (which is clearly mapped to HOME) will confuse the hell out of you. Or maybe just me.

    I use Flirc to control my fire stick, it’s so much better than the IP driver. With a bit of programming workaround I use the IP driver to leverage mini drivers, when one of those is selected it switches over to the Flirc driver for instant control via IR 

  10. Have you got an EA-1 behind the TV in your office? If you do this could easily be set up, you wouldn’t be able to answer the call on the TV though, it would just display the camera feed. Sounds like you would be better off with intercom anywhere so the DS2 mini comes through to your phone
