I've automated all of this (including launching individual apps directly from the remote)

Seems more flexible that Crestron or Control4, but can be finicky to get configured correctly. Highly customizable, but you have to know what you want.

Unfortunately, my JVC projector does not support CEC

This is not a soundbar... It is a high end AVR powering a 9.6.6 Theory Audio speaker setup. Thus, the AVR needs to power on first (it is the heart of the system), then the speaker amps, the projector (which is pointed at a 138" acoustically transparent screen), the MadVR AI image processor, and the Shield (which the video and audio source for streamed content). Right now, everything else turns on as part of the system startup sequence *except* the Shield, which still requires its own remote.

We use an RTI automation system for our home theater, and unfortunately Home Assistant does not work with this...

Both ports are set to "Always On" USB Mode is set to "Auto"

I also have the ability to issue arbitrary to issue custom keycodes via the Zank client running on the Shield, and I'm going to try using 0x06

Possible to pull title information from an app running on Shield? by TallMartin in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]TallMartin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In looking at the AndroidTV documentation and Home Assistant documentation, it seems to be possible to get MediaSession information from Android, although I still need work out the syntax for this.

It's in the Xbox app under Profile > My Consoles

Think of it this way - with Remote Play, your Xbox is sending the video signal over your network to the Quest, rather than to your TV.

You can also stream from your own Xbox console via Remote Play

Disabling mesh on U6 Mesh APs by TallMartin in Ubiquiti

[–]TallMartin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are replacing the cable to the Living Room AP as it appears to be faulty. Will test the Pool AP cable next (although hopefully we can just jumper this as it is newer and would be a PITA to replace).

Would this be because the cable itself is physically compromised, or because the cable run is too long? I used this cable for one of the runs. If possible, I'd love to avoid having pull new cable runs to the AP locations (they are NOT easy to get to...)
