NEW: Scheduling
« on: September 25, 2016, 07:09:21 am »

John got scheduling working this week.  It requires JRiver Media Center 22.0.30 or above (expect its release to Latest next week) and Engen 1.0.31 from the top of this board.

This means that you can set up rules to turn on lights or switches or scenes at any time for any duration.

Instructions
Make sure you have the latest versions of MC and Engen installed.

Open Media Center and open "Scheduler" under "Services and Plug-ins" near the bottom of the tree on the left side.

Set up a new rule (Add Task button)  and choose Engen Event as a Task type.

The server must be the full address where Engen is running.  For example:  http://192.168.0.15:52125

You can set up as many tasks as you wish.  They can be single events or repeating.

There are some minor usability issues that will be fixed in the next build of MC.  Right now, the server can be changed, but the change isn't remembered.  And so on.
