[Solved] Web Orbiter md Selection?

[b4rney]

I've installed a web orbiter by following the wiki.

I installed it to control the md in my living room but it is linked to my hybrid/core in another room. I can't get it to change the md it is linked to even though it says 'living room' on the orbiter page. Is this a known bug or have I missed something?

Have you tried simply changing the room within the web orbiter interface itself? The setting in the web admin is supposed to define the inital room on start up. I have read something somewhere about this not working for another orbiter type, so maybe its the same. Either way, you can change it within the orbiter itself.

I'll give that a try. Thanks for the advice!

[b4rney]

Yeah! That works. Good solution. Thanks colinjones!

if you change the default room via web admin, the change won't be noticed until you do at least a quick regeneration of the orbiters

Thanks jondecker76. I tried that but it didn't work for me. In fact I regenerated all orbiters yesterday and screwed my main md which has the r8168 issue. Still the web orbiter is defaulting to the core. Did you get the default room to change OK in web admin then?

Fixed now. Should have edited this page.
LinuxMCE Admin Website-->Device tree-->CORE-->Generic Web Device-->Device Data
NOT
Wizard-->Devices-->Orbiters
Now working perfectly. Thanks for the assistance!
