Can someone share if they are successfully using square connect to control av devices through vera and elaborate how they have set it up. Thanks !
Come on guys, I am sure someone has set it up succesfully
I’m curious about this as well. Would love to hear from someone who has successfully done this.
I have mine working with a USB-UIRT, DirecTV DVR and my Panasonic TV via RS232 using a wiznet network RS232 device and the plugin @guessed wrote.
The DVR is upstairs in my den along with my PC and xbox; they all connect through a monoprice 4x4 HDMI matrix switch which is also now controlled by an RS232 plugin written by @guessed. My Receiver is connected downstream of this, (downstairs) which then connects to Panasonic TV via HDMI. I don’t need a remote for the receiver as the TV is able to control it through HDMI CEC.
The Vera database is currently quite limited and if you want to expand on it then for some devices you may get lucky and find a pronto code for the device you want on remotecentral.com, using this you can edit some of the existing plugins; however I’ve not had much success with that despite others that have…
MCV for a long time have said they will make it so that you can copy and paste pronto codes into Vera or maybe a website and generate a plugin. Until they add this, and learning, then it’s not a very good solution at the moment!
SQ remote also has no macro function but I think that will get added soon.

We are working on a solution to many of these issues… Be commercially available in a few months… In alpha now, beta shortly.
