Given that JRec works with the DDAR and not the AT, (and given the title of
your post) you, in effect, were discussing it :)

I still think there is a need for somewhere we can discuss these matters as
there are bound to be issues/questions with the SLiMP3's and ATs once the
respective bulk buys are complete - and many are bound to be along the lines
of "How do I connect x to HV/Homeseer/JReceiver", "How do I achieve X with
Y"?  (Ans: you can't, you should have bought Z which is sooooo much better)
etc etc.
I wasn't suggesting you were starting a debate on the subject, I just know

No probs then.
There is a JRec group if you are specifically after info on that -
JReceiver_User where they may be better able to answer your questions.

I'm still running an old model SWMBO without the HA compliant upgrade :-(

details details :-)
Works from any browser (in theory), just the width is optimised for small
screens.

I was just concerned it could end up as another retread of an older thread
:)
