HouseBot

I have purchased 2 ZP100's and a remote and they work great. I would like to integrate control of the ZP100's into HB, which should be doable as the devices use UPNP. I know this control has been integrated into Homeseer via scripting. Anyone else interested in this? I already have a script that can access the network and pull the information on all UPNP devices using the UPNP.dll from microsoft.

Have not done anything like this :) but would like to connect to Pinnacle showcenter 200... either with pinnacle server or anything (swissserver etc...)
If this can be done SC will be a cheap multi room solution controlled with housebot... There might be similarity to connect sonus...

Yep, I would be very interested in your findings on how to connect to Sonos devices. I didn't look into it since I am unfamiliar with interfacing network related stuff into HouseBot. If you can do this, please let me know. I can get a Sonos test set easily to maybe even help you out a bit.

Alright, so another sonos user has written a PERL based program that acts as both server and UPNP control point for the sonos player (and likely any other UPNP compliant media server/renderer). The server handles nearly complete control of the devices via html pages with java script. I am going to poke away at this, but if there are other multi-lingual individuals (i.e., IT types) interested in this please take a look and provide insight. I am limited to visual basic (thats basic with capital letters...) and its going to take me a bit to slog through the jscript code and see if the server portion of the software can be accessed directly from vb scripting. The installer as well as source code for the project can be found here:

Any input is greatly appreciated.
