Completed a large portion of the Audio control interface today.  Currently have album/artist/song and coverart displaying on my K4 with realtime tracking of the current song position.

Am now working on a scrolling list with songs.

Did a lot of bug fixing today.  Managed to speed up the navigation controls so it's now as responsive as using the IR remote.
Still need to fix a bug that's causing the playlist (queue) to go crazy if you select a track to play.

As the Base/Link modules only support a power OFF command i've added a power ON command via wake-on-LAN.  Works great!

Driver is done!  Needs some more documentation, but I hope to showcase the driver at ISE in just over a week's time!

This driver interfaces with the DF Solutions Base/Link integrated entertainment system.

http://mydevice.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69&Itemid=10

With the included sample project, interfacing your DF box with RTI couldn’t be easier. The driver features full 2-way feedback allowing you to control your music library without the need to see the video output.

Features:
  • Remote control (the same features as the IR remote)
  • Movie playback control
  • Movie feedback (title, year, rating, directors, actors etc)
  • Music playback control
  • Music browsing directly on the remote
  • Music queueing
  • Music now playing (track, title, artist, album, genre etc)
  • Cover art for movies and music
  • IP control
  • Support for 17 zones
  • Eazy zone flipping
  • Fully tested and authorised by DF Solutions!

To help reduce integrator programming efforts the DF driver includes something we've termed 'Easy zone flipping'. In addition to the 17 zones of feedback provided (which would be a lot of work to implement on a remote!) there is an additional zone of feedback called 'current zone'.

Simply create a single zone using the 'current zone' set of feedback variables and add 2 buttons 'Next Zone' and 'Previous Zone'. Each time you change zones all the feedback is updated. No need to add scores of pages!

Need to control multiple Base and/or Link servers? No problem, simply add a 2nd (or 3rd, 4th...) instance of the driver to your processor - the one license code will work across multiple copies on the same processor.

If you can send me an mp3 that has the problem, then yes I should be able to fix it.

As for adding new functionality... it's not likely as DF Solutions no longer sell the hardware.
