Yeah, I need to sort the hosting out. virx71 wrote: > FIRST OF ALL A QUESTION: > I'm using a profile for each SB receiver an one main menu: > should I create different main menus for each receiver or can I assign a > <profile></profile> tag to a menu item itself? You can't assign a profile to a menu item as that would make the current profile change as you scrolled through the menu. But you can assign a profile to a menu and make that menu a sub-menu off the main menu, eg, If you had a main menu with Lounge & Bedroom on it you could link those to a Lounge menu and a Bedrrom menu which could change the current profile accordingly. Alternatively, you could bypass the main menu and set the Lounge and Bedroom Menus as the entry points for each porfile so that you had a different main menu depending on the current profile. It's your choice really. virx71 wrote: > > SECONDLY AN EXPLANATION AND AN IDEA: > I have several submenus in which I have several macros which involve > different remotes actions at the same time > and some playerActions which happen to be replicated several times: in > keys, in menu events and in IPevents as well. > > I was wondering why not creating another object called "macro" defined > in its own section where we could define each single macro > only once and then call it whenever needed.

Now that IS a consequence of the very, very basic xml parser that I use as the controller does not have one built in. However, your numbering does not have to be sequential, you could do 10, 20, 30 etc which would make inserting extra codes easier. virx71 wrote: > FOURTH, ON IR-O-IP: > The "Update Configuration link" is not working, I tried several times to > use it without success. > Not sure if it's a bug or I'm missing something in the xml configuration > to enable it. > It would be really useful to update all my controllers remotely with > just one click! > > A few ideas: > In IPevents it would be great to have order parameters as well with the > same flexible definition described above. > > I imagined also it would be great to organize tables differently: > 2 3 4 5 10 repeat times are needed only for volumes control and count > times could be decided inside the IPevents > definition by a count parameter as in actions elements.

The idea is you would create your own page with customised links to control the controller. That said, I have sinse learnt a bit of javascript so may revisit it.
