HouseBot

can someone out there tell me how in the hell to set up housebot from the begining so that i can control Meedia Essentials. I can get connectivity with the housebot server, but i only get that sample skin and i have no clue how to do anything else. I have read the help files that are out there and i just get more confused. Is there a way that a basic 'working' template is out there so i can test the basic functionality of this before i buy it. I know it has potential, but i am losing my mind here and i may not be able to even move the volume up and down on my meedio box before my 15 day trial is up.



thanks,



jeff

Jeff,



Unfortunately the plugins needed for HouseBot and Essentials to communicate with each other are not yet available. Each system will run on its own and when the plugins are complete, you will be able to bridge the two together.

any ideas on when this might happen?

It's on the top of the list after Meedio TV is done. I think the current plan is that there should be something in January, but don't quote me.

Is there any update on this topic yet?



I am thinking about buying Housebot but having seen how long TV has taken I am reluctant to pay for something that may be months away?
