Version 0.6.1.0
Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2010 1:34 am
Hi there,
The latest version is available here: http://www.hekkers.net/files/FBF_0610.rar
Some things you need to know:
Database
The FBF.mdb Access db has been changed; a new table has been added, named PhoneBook.
So if you want to save your CallLog, you'll have to find a way to transfer the CallLog table from your current FBF.mdb to the new one. But i'm sure there are people here who know more about Access then me, so be creative
Phonebook
A Phonebook has been added. The Plugin will retrieve the Phonebook from the Fritz!Box and store it locally in the Access db. The locally stored Phonebook can be re-retrieved from the Fritz!Box by going to the Phonebook in the config pages and pressing the "Refresh" button.
WLAN
Now you can switch the WLAN on and off of your Fritz!Box !
Any donations you want to make by all the power/money being saved are welcome
Devices
2 new devices have been added: one called "Fritz!Box WLAN" and the other one is called "Last Caller Name".
So the first time you start the new Plugin, all devices will be deleted and recreated, including the 2 mentioned.
Remember, you can reload from your CallLog table by hitting the "Reload CallLog" button; it is in the Phonebook section of the config pages.
Password
This version of the Plugin should work with the newest firmware available; of course the Plugin will be backwards compatible so if you are experiencing any problems with this new version then contact me and we'll figure out how this can be fixed. After upgrading my own Fritz!Box, it was rather hard to test the Plugin on older firmware...
The Plugin works with both password- and un-protected Fritz!Box web interface. But make sure you disable the nagging screen that reminds you that you are working with an unprotected Fritz!Box. Either you have your Fritz!Box password protected or not; there's nothing in between in my opinion, so disable that nagging screen.
The Plugin will ask you for your password (config page, interface button). Don't be scared to fill in your password, it is well protected. But do look over your shoulder, cause the textbox will show what you are typing.
Caller Name
With the Fritz!Box Phonebook included, some things have changed:
- a new format specifier, %CN (as in Caller Name) has been added.
- a new Device has been added that will show (if found) the Name of the Last Caller/Called and if no name could be found, it will still show you the latest phone number.
Well that's about it...
It took me quite some time to get it all stable in Homeseer, so please be gentle with me if something doesn't work out as it should.
You can always go back to previous versions, they're all still on my server.
Have fun
