A few words of warning... I bought one of these and the HDMI is via a DVI to HDMI adapter and there is no SPDIF connector.... so no digital sound output options!

Ok, eBaying right now... But what is the ideal behaviour? Disable temporarily then try again later? I guess if so then it goes beyond the device template.

Can anyone explain why this part exists in the code to disable the device? I am using X10 and zwave with USB-serial (zwave adapter contains one) and there is never an issue there. I don't see why the code for these 2 AV receivers shouldn't support USB-serial adapters!

@wombiroller that has happened a few times - in fact my video watching was interrupted 3 times last night by the bloody wizard! It mostly happens though that it gets disabled and then i have to manually enable again from the advanced page for that device in the web admin

@ladekribs I didn't think this problem was caused by the pnp engine, but could be wrong. It seemed this is caused by the templates themselves.

Developers / Help deciphering Denon AVC and Onkyo templates
« on: October 07, 2010, 12:13:23 am »

I have had a problem with my Denon AVC and Onkyo AV Receivers in that every once in a while (days or weeks) the serial port settings are removed and the devices set to disabled. This has followed me through 710, 810, 3 motherboards, PCI based serial, USB based serial, so there doesn't seem to be any hardware issue.

I have seen the following in the Process Initialize section of both the Denon and Onkyo device templates:

if initok==false
   DisableDevice( device_.devid_, true )
   print "The device wouldn't respond. Disabling it.\n"
   return
end


I have 2 questions:

1. Why is this done? If nobody knows what do you think about me changing it to not disable the device?
2. Does the DisableDevice clear the serial port settings? Is this the desired behaviour if something is temp unavailable?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

No, they don't support WPA. I just setup a second WLAN with WEP only encryption and locked down the subnet a bit (firewalled it and passed through only orbiter ports).

EDIT: Postage at cost - guess around £9 for UK (parcel2go.com)

Installation issues / Re: Asus M3N78-VM Audio via HDMI use to work
« on: August 20, 2010, 10:16:45 am »
I spent a while looking at it but did not get anywhere. Suddenly, one day last week it worked after a reboot, but then since the last reboot it has not worked. So still no wiser...

UK. Yes, work fine with 810. You can find instructions on this forum should you wish to install the orbiter image from scratch.

I find the same thing. It started happening a few days ago when I did an apt-get update. Will try to retrace my steps and get it working.

Users / Re: squeezebox refuses to appear in room
« on: August 04, 2010, 11:38:41 pm »
From my experience you can not add squeezbox to a room that already has core/MD, you need to select a room that is not in use example "Garage" then you can go to the floorplan and place the squeezebox Icon.

I wonder if it is possible to add a squeezebox to a room with an MD, then have the squeezebox used for music playback in that room rather than the MD. I'm trying this but it doesn't seem to work...

Any sensible offer accepted...

I did a clean install from DVD snapshot on an Asus AT3N7A-I which I know a lot of people are using.

Don't see anything odd in dmesg. I just rebooted and this started happening immediately after the device starts up.

I have a couple of USB-serial adapters, a USB-UIRT, and a WinTv Nova USB attached. Maybe I will try removing these.

Problem with removing alsa-modules-`uname -r` is that this then means there is no support for my main soundcard! (hda nvidia)

I have the tricklestar one. Is that the same?

If it's a hardware issue then how come doing a software reset of the LMCE Zwave device from the web interface fixes it? Couldn't the driver do this reset itself after a bunch of these errors are recognised?

Thanks,

Chris

What was "that command"?

I have upgraded my core to a new motherboard and now also see the No callback received errors.

Sending the reset command to the zwave interface form the web admin fixes it for a while:
