Slink-e plugin Functionality Question

[SteveV]

Hi Rick,

Yup, the Slink-e will replace your Irman. It supports IR Receive, IR Transmit, and X10 Receive/Transmit.

I'm using it with a Pronto to run my entire HT/HTPC setup including DScaler, TheaterTek DVD, CDJ (Slink-e jukebox app) as well as video input mode switching, lighting and curtain control, etc. The setup works so well that I (almost) never need to pick up the HTPC keyboard to do anything other than SW install or maintenance :smile:

I originally bought the Slink-e only for its IR RX/TX capabilities. But it worked so well that I ended up buying a couple of 400 disk Sony CD MegaChangers. The Slink-e does a wonderful job of cataloging ALL of the disks, retrieving disk info off of the CDDB creating custom playlists, etc.

In short, it's a near perfect match for Girder's tremendous functionality--I highly recommend it!

Good luck -- Steve

I have an IRMAN but would like to be able to send IR events from Girder to my equipment which is on a Xantech network.

I note there is an expansion unit for supporting Xantech ir receivers and transmitters. I asume this allows zone isolation and routing.

Can someone tell meif this will effective replace my irman and provide ir transmit and what kind of functionality does the plugin provide.

Thanks rick
