Hello. I am attempting to use Misterhouse on an Apple (running Mac OS X 10.3.3) with 3Com Audreys as my main UI to the system. At this point, I am not running any home automation stuff. I would just like to setup Misterhouse to do the following: 1. Have the picture frame application display the pictures on the Audrey without the picture description text (e.g. Picture 0: /photos/photo1.jpg at the top). 2. Play MP3s from a web page 3. Have a web page that functions as an alarm clock (possibly with a different look than the orange-on-black digital clock app). 4. Setup a web page that allows me to retrieve recipes for use with the Audrey in the kitchen. I played with Misterhouse all day today trying to set the above up and have not had much success. For example, I can get the picture frame application to work but, the picture description text is very distracting and I could not find the area within the perl script where that text function is controlled. I also tried to use the Alarms control panel within misterhouse to enable alarm clock functionality but, none of the triggers I tried worked. I then tried the MP3 functionality but was unsure how to tie it into iTunes since it seems it only controls Winamp (is that true?). Where do I start? |
