I'm trying to test out the Autonomic Controls MCS system. i have a demo file and I'm loading it but having a couple problems.

I rec'd an email from tech support:

Also, in SystemBuilder, I noticed a change in the latest version template files. If you are using older template files, you should be ok, but I would check the feedback logic assignements for the MCS subpages before loading the project. It looks like they made a change to the template data for various buttons and subpages that effects our SystemBuilder implementation.

Make sure that the Browse and Player subpages have feedback logic tied to the MCS device.

Browse should be tied to Library_Mode_Enabled

Player should be tied to Now_Playing_Mode_Enabled

I'm not sure what I'm actually going to to tie this logic to. Would this be going to a join on the subpage or the subpage itself (not sure how that is possible)?

Anyone?

Well I got that part figured out (click on the Plus sign and go to the subpage from there, I was looking at the wrong thing)

But its still not working. Thankfully I haven't paid for anything yet. I guess the templates were changed and so their SB Module isn't really working now, however they are actively redoing it.

I've exchanged emails back and forth, but still not working yet. I'm guessing their actual control module is find, its just the tie in to SB and the Destiny template that isn't correct. And I don't know how to manually do it.

Well sort of. After a bunch of screwing around they stepped up and gave me a personal copy of the MCS module. I was able to get the 2-way working just using a PTX3, but realized that I really will have to do some work on the Destiny template to make it inuitive and also on my Music Files. I think I can integrate my iTunes playlist so that it pulls through WMC. As of right now, I can really just browse by Artist or Album. My collection is way too big for this. I have about 20 playlist and prefer listening to my music this way.

I was really looking into Autonomic b/c of interest in the ATV control module, but after hearing that it will require ALL 4 of the TCP/IP ports that the Prodigy system has, I don't think it would work right. Honestly, I don't really understand where these control ports come into play, but I'm assuming the PIDOC, Iapple control, etc take a port each.
