HouseBot

OK, I am making the jump too- mostly for power savings. I got one of those tiny 6 watt PCs. Working great, except that my scripts aren't running. I get Unable to load script file [path]. Error = [The request is not supported] Unable to open script file [path]. Is there something that needs to happen...

Due to losing my work on the THCjukebox script (converting to multi zone), I had to go back to square one. I started to modify the script and devices again, but balked at the (repeated ;-) work. Seemed like there must be a better solution these days... What I had in place was - Speakers in several z...

Yup, now that you mention it, there it is! RTFM! ;-) I guess I was thrown off by the whole concept of assigning commands- wasn't what I was expecting. By the time I got my head around that, I was looking at the posts in the forums. My setup is working now- not sure what changed, although I did kill ...

Thanks! Wow, that is obscure.... how the heck did you figure that out??
Still not working, but that error is gone. Back to studying...

OK, I know this is a big time zombie thread, but I am sooooo close... I am trying to set up control for an Extron matrix switch. It is a serial device that I want to send arbitrary commands to. I followed Richard's plan here, right to the letter (I think ;-). My ICC looks like his, with Send Data fo...

The link for downloading the latest version is a dead end now- does anyone have it? I'm still in recovery mode....

thanks

I've been meaning to do some work with Tasker on Android- seeing stuff like this-

but I'm so behind..... :-(

Sorry?

Hey Steve- pretty sure you can use the free versions of the MS tools to build this stuff, in whatever language you want.

I'm not quite sure what you mean- it should only run when ALARM.Status changes, right? I have a timer on my basement lights that works off a motion detector... I use a flag variable to mask out all the re-triggers. You could use something like that, an extra variable to block the task from triggerin...

I actually JUST got is going last night. It wasn't the file itself that was locked- I was able to open it with MDBViewerPLUS, which Is what I have used in the past to mess with it. But as I tried to look at the records, when I got to the DevicePropertyMap, I got a "Data provider or other servic...

Hello- My system had an unscheduled shutdown, and on reboot, the database was corrupted. No problem, I pulled out the backup, bit it won't load either- I get this error, right after it loads the Z-wave devices- The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are at...

Another option, albeit more expensive, would be to upgrade the receiver in your sound system (home theater, stereo, whatever) with one that has a Pandora app built in. And choose a receiver that can do two or more zones. Then you can control access to Pandora with IR or RS232, depending on the rece...

I'm pretty sure all I did was follow the directions in the documentation... good luck, let me know if I can help.

I've considered running Pandora off a browser and out the default audio and then in the line-in of my Maudio cards. But that would only work for one zone.

Hi Steve!

I installed the latest and greatest (as of Jun 28th 2012) this summer when I moved to a new server. v5.63(x86). I have not noticed any issues with it, running multi-zone Jukebox.

You wouldn't happen to have a Pandora-winamp/housebot solution would you??? I'd kill for that.
