Obi2Yac: Yac & Growl Notification Daemon

Veronica ,

There actually is a thread for this. Unfortunately it is hard to find. It seems that the person who owns the thread inherits the responsibility to maintain it. Perhaps it should be made a sticky. If others find it useful enough to become a sticky show your interest here.

3rd party apps development for the OBi 110/100
http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=1648.msg10563#msg10563

Perhaps Smee can add himself to the above mentioned thread.

It is also a good community thread. Any one is free to add their favorites or special finds in that thread. I have seen other 3rd party apps which can be used with the Obi. Some specific to using the OBi:

RonR Obi configurator, Obi provisioning apps

Others of a more general nature:
Which could be used to trouble shoot, auto recording calls, home alarm systems, etc...

Hey could anyone show me how to setup this obi2yac I seem to be doing something wrong since it just crashes when I pick up the phone. Do I have to change the code? or changes in the obi itself?

thanks and sorry to be a noob.

Sent you a PM.  Going to need a little more info to understand the problem.  I.E., What OS, 32Bit or 64Bit, Is your firewall blocking YAC or Obi2YAC? Etc....

Need some help here.

I looked in the forums and this seems to be the thread that explains how to use ob2yac.

My first problem is setting up YAC server with Obi. when I am installing YAC on my computer, it asks which modem should it use. I don't know what I should pick for Obi.
Also from some other discussions it seemed to me that Obi needs to be writing something to my computer for these programs to read from, is that correct?

Thanks for the help.

(I tried growlerId and that didnt work for me. I found this while looking for how to fix growler id and this seems to be more useful, so want to set this up)

Akel,

    Obi2Yac is the server.  When using YAC, you will no longer use that as the server.  You will only be using it as a listener or client by launching it with this command:  yac.exe listen

If you  look in your START menu you should see a shortcut for the YAC listener.  If you are using linux or running the listener on a hacked TiVo it's pretty much the same.  The Windows machine that is running Obi2Yac has an access database in which you will plug in the IPs you want it to contact with the notifications.  It will also log all calls there.  Look inside the file: Obi2Yac.au3 which has some info on what the database tables are for.  If you run Growl on the same PC as Obi2Yac, you can have Obi2Yac send notifications to it for broadcast to other machines running growl instead of using the Yac listener.

Take care..

Smee
