James, A few queries for you re xAPNews, which I'm hoping to integrate into some new xAP-enabled s/w of my own. 1. I'm wishing to monitor a site that publishes...
... Yes, it hits the max size so reduces the number of stories one by one until they fit. ... Yes very possible. ... news.reports are sent as per the time set...
... Would that mean if several stories landed on the site being monitored by xAPNews inbetween the times when it checks for updates, that it only alerts of the...
Ah, I notice on your scheme page something that seems to confirm news.alert is only the top story as the schema does not include a Count parameter in the...
... As you have discovered the news.alert is limited only to the top story. Changing this in the current framework would be very tricky but as I'm going to...
Another thought... I see a field "pubDate" in the RSS data I'm interested in scanning. Is that a standard field in the RSS formats you support James? Haven't ...
Shaf, What are the symptoms you are seeing? I've had it running flawlessly on a machine with uptime measured in months (and reboots have nothing to do with ...
I'm going to investigate this further.... I think you are very much right in terms of rogue xap messages : I will rebuild the daemons again from src - I did...
... This is working just as I'd expect, James. I am getting 2 separate messages with the 15 news story summaries, just as I'm after. Cheers! I've also been...
... NP, a new exe is on the way over. It will support the rss 091,093 <PubDate> and the RDF <dc:date> tags and present them as a Date= in the xAP message. If...
... That's working great - and the 'split over n messages' feature to get a complete report on all available headlines adapts perfectly too. I was getting 2...
I’ve recently been thinking about installing Asterisk but am unsure as to the current xAP support for it. Patrick – you were writing a connector for it...
Yes, I have a connector which does caller-id and allows calls to be auto-dialled from a specified extension. Used in conjunction with an outlook macro, you can...
Thanks Patrick, I'm using James's xAPSwitchboard app for the call logging etc - very good bit of software and integrates nicely with Outlook :-) My early...
James, Some xAPSwitchboard queries: ... How does this work? I'm wondering if I can setup a user record in the database (although I'm getting error messages as...
... I'm guessing that this is controlled via the ToSend.txt file? What sort of fields and such are permissible in here? I'm going to guess that the Type value...
... There are many field and tweaks that can be done to messages through the tosend.txt file. In beta1 you are limited to slimp3,display and tts mesages but in...
... Aside from the error that is now fixed ( there was an issue with the nickname field), it should work like this An incoming call comes in and the name is...
Pluto is a new, open source smart home solution that seamlessly integrates: 1) media with a server for music, movies and tv shows, plus a PVR and DVD Player,...
Chiu, Don't know if you have xAP ( and XPL) 'on your radar' ? But I suspect it will go mainstream soon. I introduced AR to www.o2M8.com at the show. Best...
It seems fairly quiet on the xAP application development front – is that true or is there a frenzy of activity behind closed doors? ;) I’m gradually...
I don’t suppose anyone has a geovision system and displays the webcam page via xAP Desktop or other method? Geovision have an ActiveX control to display...
Hi Paul, Well I certainly know that the main developers are all hard at work on their respective apps - and the next version of xAP Switchboard (beta 2) and...
Good to know things are still moving along :) ... I'm rather guilty of that too (like earlier today!) - With a low group useage, it sometimes seems best to...
For those using IRC, there's also the xap IRC channel on nixhelp. Details below about how to access it, currently very quiet, but feel free to drop by. Server...
... I hope you dont mind Paul but I'll copy the question and the response to the list ... Me too - as I now have asterisk running within Pluto Kevin...
I suppose the big question for me is what telephony hardware do I need? I have one BT analogue line with ADSL and a home highway line with 2 x analogue numbers...
