Calling all brave souls with X-10 CM11A computer interfaces! I've just uploaded a new SqueezeCenter7 "alpha" release of PowerCenter[0] that should add support for an additional X10 computer interface. http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/slim7/BottleRocket/
CAVEAT: I have not tried this software with a CM11A myself! I've only just built software that *sounds* like a good fit (http://heyu.org/), including (even more of a reach here) making some small changes in order to build a Windows version. Anyone currently using BottleRocket with SC7 who wants to switch should 1) shut down SC7 2) find your SC7 prefs/plugins folder 3) copy (or rename) BottleRocket.prefs to PowerCenter.prefs 4) open PowerCenter.prefs and change any instances of the phrase "BottleRocket" to "PowerCenter" -- you should only have that in one or two spots, in reference to the 'br' or 'br.exe' apps that are included with the plugin To use a CM11A controller, change the 'br'/'heyu' path from 'br.exe' to 'heyu.exe' or 'br' to 'heyu'. Please, please, please let me know if you're able to try out the new 'heyu' support. I haven't yet talked myself into spending $15 to buy one myself, as my CM17A firecracker is working fine. :-) -Peter [0] Yes, "PowerCenter". I first named the plugin BottleRocket when it only supported X10 "Firecracker" controllers using the Linux 'br' BottleRocket utility (http://www.linuxha.com/bottlerocket/). Thanks to Greg Brown of SuperDateTime and SiriusRadio fame (http://gregbrown.net/), all the SC7 releases, and the last unofficial SlimServer 6 releases have supported Insteon software. With the new Controller interface (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41482) and now, hopefully, support for another X10 controller that does not use the 'br' utility, a more general name seems appropriate. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet BlankSaver FuzzyTime PowerCenter/BottleRocket SaverSwitcher SleepFade StatusFirst SyncOptions VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43781 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
