HouseBot

If this is all you want to do I would highly suggest going down the girder route.

its possible, but its more of a hack than anything.



the meedio team needs to release a housebot undate that will include the ability to navigate menus

I noticed that Meedio has recently released a housebot connector which at first glace allows users to change housebot tasks through meedio. Great work! Any word on when we will be able to do the opposite - access meedio libraries from housebot? Just wondering, its number one on my wishlist and I am ...

Yep.. Over a network will work. You may need to install girder on both machines so it looks like this. Housebot -> Girder ----via network---> Girder -> Meedio You may be able to have it work like this (but im not sure) Housbot --via network--> Girder --> Meedio Good luck. What Control device will yo...

This is in the works (or so we have been told) but since meediotv has taken so long to release this feature has been delayed. Its easy to control meedio (up, down, left, right, ect...) through girder. What would realyl make the two special is the abilty to browse meedio's meedia libraries through ho...

I would suggest making the button on a large canvas in photoshop. Once you like what you have flatten the image, copy & paste the layer and move it using the arrow keys to the right. Once its lined up you can change the colour and then crop the entire image to the proper size. Make sure you crop...

Here is a thread from a while back when I was trying to do this:

I am using girder. I can send you the GML if you would like. Basically it has a 60sec timeout, if no action has been done it creates a black box that covers the entire screen. I have this box set for 0% opacity, but you can make it whatever you want. As well as this works its not great. A black moni...

I have this exact problem. Right now the only solution is to make a 1 min time out that pops up a full screen black box on the touchscreen. Certianly not the best solution, but it works.

I actually have the same problem with text fields. Specificly a caller log. It seems totally random.

Its pretty easy to set up the bridge, just follow the instructions in the help.

Hey guys, Right now I am using housebot that runs everything else on my htpc. Its works fine but i would like to move housebot to a dedicated machine. Does anyone have any suggestions for a case/cpu/ps combo that I can use? I am looking for something that is small, silent, and cheap :). It doenst ha...

You can use girder and send message, or simply map keyboard strokes (up, down, ect..).

housebot works with the usbuirt directly so there is no need for girder. however, since i set up girder first with all the IR codes i needed - it was pretty easy to setup the girder bridge and have housebot send girder the appropiate eventstring, then girder will send the IR code.



both ways work.

I believe ARM off the top of my head. It was the one bulit for intel cpu's.
