There's this thread: http://www.cocoontech.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=14139 I never did get it to work on mine, although didn't spend much time on it. Made a static entry for my server under "the Internet" using "Add Site" instead.

Hmmm, I was thinking Out-of Body Experience! Assuming you're getting the time from the client browser's clock, here's a javascript example that might work: http://www.elated.com/articles/creating-a-javascript-clock/ Getting the time (or other info) updated from the server would require some...

Thanks - which specific improved drivers did you have in mind? I just started playing with this again after acquiring a Vaux Lattis switcher earlier this week. Custom media/UI buttons are definitely one way to attack this. I previously tried creating media shortcuts to fake content (fake disc...

Just the one-line text buttons as far as I've been able to tell.

Thanks, Frank - that's how I did it, and it does work fine in Automation Browser. But in my case, I'm trying to use Minibrowser on my iPhone/iPad, not Automation Browser. These additional Mediazone device icons - like CD Player - unfortunately don't show up in Minibrowser. To select Mediazone...

I tried that - but there's no way to associate a CD player with a particular piece of media. In order to get a Media Shortcut to appear in my Mediazone in MiniBrowser, it seems I'd need to use a CD Changer, and create a "fake" Disc Carousel/Disc/Track media object to play. I tried it - with even...

Thanks, yes the iTunes program itself is a bit of a mess, but the Apple Remote app for iPhone and iPad is killer. Premise's built-in media playing UI is ok - but doesn't hold a candle to the slick Apple Remote app. So that's one of my goals - just use Premise to control volume & the...

Must be some built-in behavior of the "radio tuner" class for custom devices. mSense doesn't seem to pay attention to which station is assigned to which tuner. I create two Custom Devices, choosing Radio Tuner as the type, named TUNER1 and TUNER2. I create two radio stations, and assign...

Ok, mSense is cool - but the "pick your target media first" paradigm doesn't always work. I have two primary types of "whole house" audio, connected to inputs on a matrix switch: 1) iTunes running on PC, using Apple Remote on iPhone to pick songs & control transport. 2) Monitoring microphones...

Anyone sucessfully used Premise with one of the popular electronic door locks, like Schlage or Kwikset's Z-wave systems? Or are there better alternatives to look at? Thanks!

I don't know that much about it either - but yes, I suspect that's the hard part: building an MCE plugin app that consumes & displays dynamically-generated MCML markup, while communicating back to the Premise server. Other HA systems like Lifeware, mControl, and HAI have Media Center plugins so...

A Media Center plugin for Premise would be the way to go - no sense re-inventing another "TV GUI" for Windows. Not sure if anyone has ever built one, though. Could the automation browser be adapted to spit out MCML instead of HTML?
