Domotiga in a backend/frontend setup ??

Extjs works very well and is fast. License structure might be a problem though. Anyway, I like the setup of a frontend backend setup. Would be great if we could use a small linux router as the backend instead of a full blown server.

Sonos vs. Logitech - What do you think

Considering the specs of what is HIFI. Anything that can play sound seems to apply.
Saying the squeezebox is not Hifi is a bit weird. Soundquality is very good (better than most surround receivers) and can be improved by using an additional DAC. If you only play MP3, there both decent enough.

Sonos vs. Logitech - What do you think

I'm a user of the slimserver / squeezecenter for years. Currently I'm using a windows mobile application as a remote control called slimcontrol. Looks realy nice but is a work in progress. Most functions are already there so it's usable. Most of the software of squeezecenter is opensource and the ap...

IguanaWorks have a USB device http://iguanaworks.net/product1.psp I think I use that one because it's supported by Lirc. An interesting though not yet finished project for remote control is http://www.huitsing.com/irftdi/ This a Lirc compatible Transciever based on a cheap rs232 <--> usb converter. ...

Our Domotica House

Wow, good start. I'm currently running two xbmc setups. Also I'm using Domotiga as central controller. Can't wait to see the XBMC class for Domotiga. I'm also busy with whole house audio with squeezecenter and squeezebox. For control I'm planning to use the devices from Heino Peters. Currently a bit...

Electronics (circuits) - Where to begin?

Why not start with the book "Domotica" from Heino Peters. Lot of electronics to give you an insight in control and domotica.

Squeezebox touch pictures

I'm more interested in the new squeezebox duet that has been rumoured. It should be a more slim version of the current duet remote. Have not seen any pictures on the net, just an announcement.

Dimmer op de octobus

De reden voor de bedrade dimmer is simpel. Omdat ik mijn huis aan het verbouwen ben heb ik in diverse ruimtes een soort mini meterkastjes gebouwd. Ik heb bijvoorbeeld boven de schouw in de keuken een mooie ruimte gelaten waar ik alle buizen van de eetkamer en de keuken laat uitkomen. Dit concept pro...

Dimmer op de octobus

Hallo Heino, Ik ben bezig met de schakelingen uit het boek en ik heb de printjes net binnen dus ik kan beginnen met bestukken. Ik zag echter dat de dimmers draadloos worden aangesloten. Is het mogelijk om op een envoudige wijze de dimmers gewoon op de bus aan te sluiten? Ik zit nu te overwegen om he...
