  1. I am a C4 fanboy but I have to say Josh seems to really be delivering.
  2. This is very cool. I was under the impression that nuheat was the only option for hydronic. It looks like the sinopetech is controlled through zigbee which is a big plus for me. Does anyone know if the nuheat is controlled locally or through the cloud?
  3. Sorry to bring back an old thread but does anyone have any experience integrating (controlling) a Yamaha piano? I searched for a Yamaha general Yamaha musiccast driver but couldn't find anything.
  4. Got it thank you. So this driver would not be useful for automatically turning on a heated driveway because it would have to run 24 hours in advanced (too long)?
  5. That makes sense. Thank you! @alanchow do you have any inout here? Any thoughts on being able to have the driveway turn on a set number of hours before snow? Thanks
  6. Thanks for the input. What ended up being too complicated? I was thinking of using it for basic programming such as the programming in the driver docs (image attached). When it is going to snow tomorrow, turn on heated driveway one day before.
  7. I am considering using this solution for my heated driveway. Are you still using this solution? How did everything work out for you?
  8. Thank you guys. Is it possible to change these icons to something that resembles a heated driveway icon? Does anyone have thoughts on programming the driveway to turn on based on weather?
  9. Hey Guys, I'm finally getting around to integrating my heated driveway and walkway into C4. I understand that C4 has a driver heater timer experience button, but it doesn't seem to be of much use to me because the maximum timer length is 180 min. I need my driveway heater to be on for days at a time. I'm not sure who would turn their driveway heater on for 180 minutes but I might be missing something. Anyway I am looking for ideas on the best solution for integrating a heated driveway. I do like the idea of having the heater turn on automatically based on weather. All input is greatly appreciated!
  10. Hey guys I believe I am experiencing a bug with intercom on IOS. When my DS2 doorbell rings and I answer the intercom call on my iPhone with AirPods in, the audio from the call switches to the speakers on my phone rather than going to my AirPods. This is my experience every time I answer a call with AirPods in. Is anyone else experiencing this? My system is on OS 3.3.3. My c4 app is fully up to date.
  11. There it is. Thank you! https://www.myq.com/works-with-myq
  12. @WhyPhy On screen image quality is what I care most about - so it sounds like out of the SI options you would go with the Pure White AT 1.3?
  13. @RAV thank you I am still considering painting it a dark color. In the case that it does remain white (tying to keep my wife happy) should I go with the Slate AT 1.2 or Pure White AT 1.3?
  14. I appreciate everyone's input and help. I am down to two options for screen material. Screen innovations Slate AT (acoustically transparent) 1.2 or Pure White AT 1.3. I have decided that I would rather have the best quality with the lights off than to be able to use the screen with the lights on. The basement is pitch black with the lights off, but my concern is that I have a white ceiling and walls. The ceiling height is low (7ish feet) and light scatter from the projector lights up the ceiling and walls. The wall's and ceiling are staying white. Should I go with SI Slate AT 1.2 or Pure White AT 1.3? Thanks again.
  15. Thank you for your help! I was not familiar with these drawbacks of ALR screens. I thought that the ALR screen would sacrifice on image quality but not in a way that would be noticeable to the untrained eye. I have a Sony VPL-XW6000ES projector. I am planning on getting an anamorphic lens to convert the output to 2.40:1, but I was only aware of the image quality benefits that would come with it. Would an anamorphic lens allow me to completely eliminate light spillover? If so, should I choose to go with the zero edge screen over a screen with 3.5 inch black velvet bezels? Thank you for everything!
  16. Hi everyone. Thank you all for your input. After plenty of research, I am leaning towards a Screen Innovations 5 Fixed 120” 2.40:1 with Slate AT 1.2 material. I chose Slate because 95% of the time we are going to be watching movies in the dark but occasionally we might want the lights on for something more casual. I was originally going to go with their zero edge screen but I was worried about light bleeding over the edge of the screen which pushed me to the 5 fixed. Any thoughts / advice on going with the SI 5 Fixed in Slate AT 1.2?
  17. Hi Dawn thanks for the help. The room size is interesting… This basement has very low ceilings and I understood that that this would require compromises but I went forward with it anyway and I am very happy with how it’s going. I have installed two rows of seating with the back row on a raised platform. The maximum height of the screen should be no more than 48.2” so that the back row can see the bottom of the screen without the heads of the people in the first row getting in the way. I installed the projector to test this. Dimensions: 21’ length, 16’ width, 7’ 2” height The room is completely light controlled and the front of the first row is about 9 feet from the screen. I understand none of this is ideal but with everything in place I am really happy with how it worked out. I really appreciate your help!
  18. I am adding a "casual home theater" to my basement. I have purchased a Sony 6000 projector and now I need a screen to go with it. I will almost only use the theater to watch movies. My only requirements are the following: - Fixed (non moving) screen - acoustically transparent (left right center speakers are behind the screen) - 120 inch Questions: - What aspect ratio should I go with (I was leaning towards 16:9 since I will almost only be using it for movies but I am unsure if this is the right choice)? - What make/model screen should I choose? Please excuse my ignorance on this topic. Any and all advice/help is greatly appreciated!
  19. Update: I was going to go with Sperry West based on above, but they were out of my budget. It's extremely difficult to find NDAA compliant covert cameras but I was able to find another option. The Vitek VTC-PIR4CN-4 checked all my boxes including being NDAA compliant for $75. I ended up ordering two of them and I installed the first one 2 days ago and put it on my Luma NVR. Vitek has a control4 driver for the camera on their website but I have not tested it yet. I highly recommend. Hope this helps someone down the line.
  20. I also have this issue but it only happens occasionally for me. I believe it is something network related but I haven’t gotten around to going through everything.
  21. Has this been working consistently for you? For some reason it has stopped working for me.
  22. @msgreenf is there a workaround that you have been using? Thanks!
  23. For the longest time saving the playlist with shuffle enabled worked perfectly for me but sometime over the last few months this stopped working. I’ve tried re-adding the playlist and reinstalling the Spotify connect driver. I’m not sure what to try next. Any thoughts?
  24. I have a Triad AMS8-V2 for sale. PM me if interested.
