Marketplace / Re: INSTALLATION HELP WANTED AU$800

Ok, yes I am an installer. This is an installation for a good friend of mine who has kindly volunteered to allow us to setup a test system for his new home. I have not charged him for the setup only for the equipment most of which would have been bought regardless so I don't see how I have violated any Pluto licence. 

Sorry Thom if the amount I'm offering is insulting but please give me some constructive advice rather than trying to bite my head off. From what I gather from your comments it's going to cost me tens of thousands of dollars to get this thing up and running which sounds very expensive for something that's supposed to work "out of the box" and especially from someone who claims to be able to come up with equipment drivers in 30min.

Thanks Kooma I am aware of the Dianemo system and this is one avenue I'm considering but I thought we’d have a go ourselves first. And yes I did try to follow the compatible hardware list but as you probably know most components there are either no longer manufactured, very hard to find (especially in here in Oz) or very expensive.

I've offered $800 because that's what I can afford and I'm aware that it may not get me everything I want but I think it's a start. And yes Thom I do plan to get a Pluto licence should I be able to get this system working smoothly. I like the system and would love to start recommending it to other people but if this is not in line with the vision of the project then I guess I will have to look elsewhere.

Need help with the following:
->Setting up and customising device templates for equipment.
->Improve picture quality from CCTV cameras. Could not get a decent picture quality from IP cameras using Motion (These are megapixel IP cameras!!). Have managed to setup Zoneminder through mythTV which gives a little bit better image but still nowhere near as clear as windows based Acti software. Just want a good quality picture not worried about motion activated recording.
->Getting Web Orbiter running smoothly for iPad/iPhone and have it auto detect correct resolution etc..
->would prefer if there was some way of using amplifier speakers instead of separate set of speakers for echo cancellatioN when using Pheonix Solo.
->Setup so that received IR commands at media directors are transmited to  USB UiRT at Foxtel box at the core (so we can still use originalFoxtel Remote)
->Customising UI (I’ll provide graphics)
->Getting the thing running stable
