Thanks for the feedback. Once it gets closer to release we'll look into it (usually during RC1)

Its probably best to use the ESPN channel with IFTTT for that use the 'New game start' trigger and specify the team.

It is a macro that defines the color values duration brightness and sequence. Your programmer will know what to do if you tell them how you want it. I used it to do some lightning effects and red glows sequenced recently.

its seperated into blocks of 4 1000, 2, 2700, 100, 500, 1,255, 10, 5000, 7, 0,0, 500, 2, 5000, 1. [duration,mode,value,brightness] Duration: Gradual change time or sleep time, in milliseconds, minimum value 50. Mode: 1 – color, 2 – color temperature, 7 – sleep. Value: RGB value when mode is 1, CT value when mode is 2, Ignored when mode is 7. Brightness: Brightness value, -1 or 1 ~ 100. Ignored when mode is 7. When this value is -1, brightness in this tuple is ignored (only color or CT change takes effect).

We actually have an entire installation guide on our website which goes through this.

You can use lighting scenes to group but if you want the fade effect style then you'll need to program it through a macro. In fact programming directly using the actions is the cleanest way. Control4's Navigator doesn't havea RGB color wheel so unfortunately this is the best we can do. Control4's Philips Hue driver does something similar.

Yes it works with the RGBW strip as well. I have it working at my place. Yeelight is a bit weird and kind of cool. You can actually send it the sequence you want to fade from/to. We implemented this in the driver as an action.

Nice find. I looked at the code and found the problem. Have updated the driver to resolve. I've set it so that everyone using the old version will automatically update when they next check in (within 24 hours).

Chowmain - Holiday driver Programming automation tasks to take into account holidays can be hard for a programmer. In most cases programmers have to return yearly to ensure that holidays are correctly programmed in for that year. Introducing the Chowmain Holiday Driver for Control4.

The driver will fire events and also set the variable to true for bank holidays The driver provides a variable advising the current holiday The driver also includes observed holidays Support for holidays for the following countries Canada Great Britain Northern Ireland Republic of Ireland Scotland United States FAQ Can you give us some examples of how we could use this driver? To ensure that commercial environments do not automatically turn on and off devices during bank holidays it is advised to utilise the IS-BANK-HOLIDAY variable when programming our macros Use the Holiday Started event to send an announcement up on the touchscreen to advise that it is a particular holiday. Use the TODAY-HOLIDAY-NAME variable for easy programming. Combine with Chowmain’s Advanced Announcements driver to announce the holiday name over the speakers dynamically using the TODAY-HOLIDAY-NAME variable.

Looks like an IR based HVAC system. Our IntesisBox driver should work with it. You may need to send your remote to Intesis if they haven't integrated it yet.

heh we can make a coffee maker button. Do you have an IFTTT compatible coffee maker?

We actually wrote a whole guide on how to integrate white goods into Control4 using IFTTT

I'm not sure what email address you are sending to but driverCentral's helpdesk operates via phone, ticket submission and live chat from 8:30 to 4:30 mountain time (they're open for another 20 minutes). They've always been really responsive and if they can't resolve it they escalate it to me.

Note that all houselogix licences were migrated to driverCentral. driverCentral is based in Denver which is Mountain Time. Its 5:30 in the morning now so they're not going to be in the office for another 3 hours. Only they can handle your licencing request. I assume you have sent them the licence key so they can check it out for you. Perhaps also send them the mac address as well so they can check their database.

Thanks for the feedback:)

Quickest way to resolve it is to just change your password.

My house is using it primarily for Google home integration. I probably use it once or twice a day to turn lights on and off but thats about it to be honest. Its been running fine on OS 2.10 and driverCentral for the past few months. I can try to not use it for a few days to see if i can replicate the issue. The only other thing i can think of is that someone is using your pushover details on another control4 system (maybe your dealer has a test setup with your details in it). The driver is designed to kill the old pushover Control4 user and create a new one when you enter in the username and password. A token is created that is specific to that instance of the driver and older tokens are invalidated. Thats the only other logical explaination that i have for the issue.

Its all under the hood in the pushover and old chunk.io driver (which we've renamed chowmain image host).

This is avaialble now. If you are on the houselogix version then you will need to upgrade to the driverCentral version. If you are already on the driverCentral version then no need to do anything. It should have automatically updated. The hosting service comes with the driver cost so no additional fees apart from the driver purchase. At this stage there is no limits to how many you pictures you can upload. At this point in time the images are hosted indefinately. Once we get a good idea on how much resources it uses we will decide on how long images will live on our servers for. It's all under the hood. You won't notice anything different on any of our drivers but should just work.

Ok we have now created our own image hosting service running on our own servers. Everyone who is on driverCentral will have an update pushed out to them within the next 24 hours. People who are on houselogix will need to upgrade to the driverCentral version.

Thanks Gary. I really appreciate the feedback.

Hi guys, We discovered the issue and have resolved it. Have pushed out an update so the driver will automatically update itself within the next 24 hours. Please let me know if you encounter any further issues.

Yep it'll work fine for what you want. It's only the image upload for pushover and chunk.io functionality that is effected.
