Re: IP control of bluray players

0 comments
YEah I guess I should have been more specific. I have have and iPad
and have just started playing with Command Fusion and Bitwise touch
using the bitwise controls BC4X1. I have it controlling Samsung
bluray , Denon 3808 , tv , xbmc , Apple TV and hopefully my HAI system
before long. I started with all IR and have since moved the Denon to
IP and as soon as I catch on I will use the xbmc ( 1-way first and
hopefully graduate to a Fiasco-ish 2-way) via IP. I was thinking since
there are apps to control the Apple TV and bluray then there is
bound to be a way to integrate all of this into CF via IP. From what I
have discovered so far it doesn't seem like it will be as elementary
as the Denon using Telnet with ASCII commands all spelled out for me
on paper , but I am always up for a challenge.
