lboucher Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 Sure thing, send in a pic and your show will be included.Also, there is another App I made, also for the android and not Iphone.Its an app that allows anyone to control your lights via the android. Basicly displays a pic of your display, and wherever they touch the screen the corresponding lights come on. I didn't bother posting it over here as it requires Vixen 2.5Here is the thread, with video. (Need to take new video once my show is up.)http://www.doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12794 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenL_MCSE Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 The demo of the app on your site is pretty cool! I was amazed at the response time between the phone and the pc. I would have expected some lag. What's next cloud based Christmas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have the address, it's easy to automatically get the long/lat and everything else you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
