Crestron Control #876

Open Duggan-t opened 2 years ago

Duggan-t commented 2 years ago

anyone working on or have setup a streamdeck with crestron control. Basically I am looking to control my crestron to switch video inputs and outputs in addition to controlling my RESI Decoder. RESI works with it but Im not seeing anything for Crestron. I know Crestron can receive UDP commands so I assume its possible.

I've commented on this multiple times over the years. To fire commands to a Crestron controller running a program to control a larger system, whatever "triggers" you would like to have would have needed to be programmed into the Crestron program running on the processor and hooked using an ISC (inter-system communication) block (at least this was true of 2 and 3 series when I programmed them years ago). It can be possible to control Crestron devices (like matrix frames), but this would be a per-device reverse engineering process since Crestron doesn't (or at least historically hasn't) published protocols for 3rd party control like, as an example, Extron does for each product in their manuals. I do see someone started a module for this purpose for the DM 8x8, 16x16, and 32x32 frames, but I haven't had an opportunity to poke in to see what progress has been made on that.

I've done it a bass ackwards way but it works. I just can't get any feedback back to the stream deck to show the state of the system etc.
