Good evening guys. Here's my configuration:

EA-1 controller

NVIDIA Shield

Anthem MRX1140

Sony A80J TV

Epson LS-12000b projector

Connected as follow:

Nvidia Shield goes to Anthem HDMI IN 1; Sony TV HDMI 3 is connected to Anthem HDMI OUT 1; Epson projector HDMI 1 is connected to Anthem HDMI Z2 OUT.

C4 is set to have 2 rooms: LIVING room and Theater. Once I enter the Theater room, I click on "Shield" and all devices start: Anthem (Main Zone and Zone 2), projector, and Shield.

The problem is that the handshaking between Shield and projector returns a video resolution of only 4K, without HDR ready. 

I've seen that if then manually turn off Anthem Main Zone, there's a new handshaking that returns a correct 4K HDR ready resolution. Then, I turn on again the Main Zone, new handshaking and 4K HDR keeps stay on.

Any hint about that? 

Is there any way to set C$ to not turn on everything in the same moment, but in cascade? (I mean, projector first, after some seconds the Anthem Zone 2, after some seconds Shield, and so on)...

Thanks

He re-registered again (the app in fact was not working initially). But no luck after re-registering 

Hi guys.

my dealer restored the project after some hiccups.

I had a notification on my mobile when door was opening. Now I see the rule but don’t receive anything. Dealer seems to be unable to fix it. 
 

anyone here could have a deep look in my project and try to fix the issue?

thanks

Thanks Andrew

By the way, I don't think I've come across anyone else with this issue. Are you sure there isn't something in the programming causing issues?

I don't know... dealer programmed everything; I reported issue to him, he said that found no error...

But sorry, just to confirm, is it just the c4 status that is incorrect?

No, lights are blinking.

Curious - do the lights themselves blink, or just the Control4 status?

Lights, relays and C4 status. But, only if activated from C4. If activated via Shelly, no problem 

Checked it. It's by Chowmain

G'day, which Shelly driver are you using?

Hi! How can I check it?

Hi everyone.

I have some Shelly Plus 1 to control some external lights.

they work well within Shelly app when turned on as group (see video https://streamable.com/d3b4ae )

If I go in C4 app and turn them on as group, they start to turn on and off rapidly and it’s even difficult to turn off all (see video https://streamable.com/wcuwd1 )

Suggestions?

thanks

As per object, I’d need Composer HE. Anyone selling it here on the forum?

Price?

Thanks

Yes.  You will need to set up voice scenes if you want to link blinds etc.

Please, can you explain? Thanks!

Guys, I cannot find window blinds and door opener button on my Alexa device; only lights.

is that normal?

Thanks 

Ok, so it will start from March, right?

One more question: Composer HE comes with 1 year 4sight license. My 4sight subscription will expire in March 2022. What if I buy HE let say in February? Will I loose 1 month of old subscription or ?

thanks

personally if the install is going well and this is the sole hiccup I’d let them finish and then buy HE after the fact.  

Thanks. I’ll do this way.

meanwhile, any “basic guide” to C4 around?

Customer.Control4.com and you can change your dealer.  Current dealer won’t get a notice.  Will only find out when they cannot access your system

finish up the work. Be nice. Then move on

Ok. So, before getting HE, should I wait him to finish? Or can I have HE and let him to finish?

If your dealer told you that then he is either:

1. Extremely incompetent
2. Lying

Why would he lie?  So that you half to call him to make any change which increases his revenue and/or because he doesn't want you to make changes the screw up the system.

I think he’s lying. However I don’t care. He will finish his job and than bye bye

If you have a dealer who doesn’t know where to access HE you need to fire them… They clearly are not knowledgeable about basic things with the brand

I’m aware of that… however unfortunately I payed him and I need him to complete installation of some other no-C4 stuff…then, for sure, they will be fired. In the meantime, can I buy HE from other dealer? Or this means that actual installer will lose access to my system? 
 

thanks

Same problem for me. I tried to signup with new username and email, it works now!

So, is it a kind of ban?

A dealer can sell you PC based software called composer home edition. It is different than composer pro that the dealer uses

you can do 95% of the programming your dealer can do - but you cannot bind hardware and you cannot add hardware

its $149 one time fee and it comes with 1 year if 4sight which is $99 so really it’s like $50

Sorry, I had to signup with new user and email, because forum kept blocking me from posting due to “Forbbiden. Please enable JavaScript”. Obviously was enabled, so I tried with new account. It worked. 
 

Anyway: my dealer told me he can’t find Composer HE Can you help me to buy it somewhere else? (Some dealers on this forum?)

thanks
