301  Ultimate Audio Playback / Your thoughts about the Sound Quality / Re: 0.9-y3 Laidback now ? on: September 05, 2009, 07:13:18 pm
Thanks Russ, the blanket has gone!

So I guess I have to find new settings for the Q's, any more clues?

Was this a difference between X and Y or because I did some upgrades?
Because with X I likes my settings...

Well I thought this story of timealignment was far behind us, but if 2mm makes a difference I'll have to find my saw..

For the sound of Y3, it is completely dead (or just slow) like somebody put a blanket over it.
The previous version was lacking some warmth,the highs strong but listenable with my softdome's and tubes.

For listening I'll have to go back to X-xx, because there is nothing to enjoy in the music now. What was the best sounding version?

I hate to say this because the rest looks perfect to me.

Peter,

I have MCE version 2 which worked ok with MCE, Imon (partly) and dvbviewer with an extra plugin.
I know sometimes you have to stop a proces to stop MCE to react to the remote.
With IR-server I don't know yet what to do with Translator, can you give a screenprint of this?

BTW, you first tried HIP with the replacement driver? I think this can mess up your setup/registry?

I'l try it tonight again and check your tips, but don't make SeVered angry, please!
304  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 31, 2009, 10:46:02 pm
Thanks for the credits, but I'm in the dark now too.

It was easy to read the little bit of information that came with it and I managed to start a program with the green startbutton.
But after that nothing else anymore.
I guess the translator will have to do the work, maybe it looks like girder and hip so for people who now these programs it's a peace of cake.
(For Girder and Hip there's a lot of info on the net)

What I like to is the virtual remote that you can use from other networked computers! But it did not work with me (yet).

So audiodidact, put your teeth in this one!
305  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 30, 2009, 09:12:50 pm
Ah, I see, the HIP might be easier for XP, for Vista they talk about replacement drivers and dll's and this looks messy.

The IR Server is more Vista oriented and does not need extra drivers.
But, no manual, just 96 pages of newsgroup-reading.

When I get it to work I will share it, but first a drink? (No alcohol for me anymore...!, maybe better I try?)
306  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 30, 2009, 08:03:57 pm
Well, you volunteered!

I installed IR Server and this looks to be the solution for all of us. It accepts all the remotes I ever heard of and even the ones I gathered over the years.
Like creative, Pinnacle, Imon, MCE and also IRTrans.

Does it work for me? I don't know, my htpc is occupied to much by the children.
And when the remote works the wife will make me have to find an other hobby!

But I can't wait to try it...
And then of course find a comfortable way to integrate all the other programs.

Another interesting link:

http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/ir-server-suite-irss-165/ir-server-suite-version-1-4-2-test-build-3018-a-33512/

This IR-serversuite seems to work with a lot of different remotes and can send codes to the transceiver.
Only 96 pages to read through....

BTW Your thinking of an OSD-menu to help with the remote-commands?  Wink

Hi Roi,

I found what I was looking for at :
http://www.byremote.com.au/Hip/mce_remote_faq.htm

My MCE-remote over USB can use a program called HIP the same way as winlirc/irtrans etc...

I'll try and see if I get this working with XX.
An MCE-remote is quite cheap, is included with USB-receiver and works with all modern PC's.

Hoi Roy

Did spend some time in your WiFi solution, but didn't get it.
How to make this work, and how to select for eg. an album or next (what do you see on your phone display and how to select things).
Would like to try also, but whats needed. (hardware-wise).
And how to set it up.

First you install the demo of salling clicker on your PC and select the phone you are going to use. The software makes an installscript for your phone which you install and follow the directions. On your phone you start the new program and this will connect through wifi to a pc you choose. By installing the extra script in the 'my scripts' directory you can add extra options to the menu inside sallingclicker which you will see on the phone. On the phone you get the menu with all the options peter gave us, like 'volume up ^ and next > '. It depends on your phone if the layout looks good and fits the display.

When you click a key you see the command on your screen and XX reacts the way it is supposed to.
Other menu options are moving the mouse and zooming in and out, and much more.
Only problem is it cost you $24 after one month, and of course everybody needs a phone to control the pc.
I like how it works but don't use it much yet  Wink
I want something to control all the programs/options like you do with your tv. And which can be used by the rest of the family too!

Hoi Roy,

Sorry to say but more and more manufacturers skip serial and parallel ports, because we don't use them anymore. I saw the USB-version on tweekers, but I don't want to do anything lowlevel when everything is already there, only the nice program to make it possible. Maybe Girder can do the trick but then why pay 50 dollar for such a simple thing? Other programs already have plugins for USB-remote, like DVBviewer.
I guess it is still a big secret... So for me the mobile phone is doing the trick, but not for free too.
311  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 25, 2009, 12:30:19 pm
He audiodidact congratulations, nice job.
Sorry for me I don't have a serial com-port on my PC anymore...
My IR works through USBCIF, I guess they don't want us to mess around with this because I don't find much homeware for this. BTW where did you find the IR-Assisant?

Gerard.

Telstar, you didn't read the forum at soundgraph.com or simon.com, everybody agrees the IMON-panel  is useless.
I have one in my htpc and cannot understand why they made such a mess of what looks like a great idea.
My  2 cents... unhappy

Well if your watch is broken you can see the time on your PC (if you can read the strange font...and don't wait to long.. etc.etc.)
313  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 18, 2009, 09:51:30 pm
Wifi is going through the network, not directly.
Maybe the radiation is bad, but then what to do about the neighbours wifi and bluetooth and the fridge or the airco in these warm days?

I don't hear the difference, but then I enjoy analog too!

The scripting/receiving program uses some cpu/memory but then maybe it is time to use different processorparts of the cpu more strictly?

BTW. In unattended it works too, but of course then you have to start auto-hotkey.

I added the script.
314  Ultimate Audio Playback / XXHighEnd Support / Re: WiFi Remote on: July 18, 2009, 03:08:52 pm
It works...

Made a script with all the ALT-commands.
In attended mode with a Nokia N95 XXHE responds perfect. Happy
In unattended mode not. unhappy
I'm trying to make the script nicer and if there is interest I'll post it here.

Recently I stumbled on a program that allows you to control your PC with a mobile (smart)phone.
It works with bluetooth and Wifi.
Every program needs some javascript to control it.
With mediaplayer it works out of the box and gives you even the albumart on the phone!
You can find it at salling.com.
Maybe someone can make an awsome js-script for XXHE?
