One year !!!

April 23, 2013 Open to discussion kwikwai Certified Executive Chiefs

More than one year since our last blog post. Some visitors posit we’re dead in the water.
Let this post prove them wrong!

We are alive and kicking !

Since decembre 2011, what have we done ?

  • We have had many ideas of new products and at least one is on its way to emerge out of limbo. We’ll come back to it. In a few months. Probably.
  • We have had a few interesting specialized projects in the world of CEC and HDMI to do exactly what kwikwai has been designed for: help connect and debug HDMI-CEC devices. We collaborated with some multimedia device manufacturers and hopefully it helped advancing the cause of CEC within the industry.

But most importantly, we listened to our customers.
For example, Rhys Goodwin did post a review on its web site. He was very critical of kwikwai’s color.
So we immediately decided to change from our glorious red to a more politically correct black in the next version!

We promise.

One news, one wish and a resolution

December 22, 2011 Uncategorized firmware, kwikwai Certified Executive Chiefs

Howdy!

The news is that we’ve added ack support to kwikwai. You can configure kwikwai to ack any logical address; this enables device emulation (for example to transform an HTPC into a CEC device). Here’s the firmware and the release notes.

The wish is of the seasonal kind: all the best for 2012!

And our New Year resolution is to post to this blog more often!

BACK-TO-SCHOOL FIRMWARE

August 26, 2011 Uncategorized firmware, kwikwai Certified Executive Chiefs

Summer is almost over, and it’s time to discover the wonder and enjoyment of our back-to-school firmware !

Let’s face it, despite the blood, sweat and tears of our huge quality department, we still have some bugs. Luckily, we’re helped by the watchful eyes of our customers. Many thanks to them (Kieran, Aaron, Per, Humberto …)



So here is the list of small things we corrected :

  • E-EDID: fixed ddc:read in the CLI and report the correct CEA resolution in the Web Interface
  • TCP/IP: the maximum size of a packet is set to 1350 in order to support a MTU network configuration below 1500.
  • CEC: We disabled kwikwai’s ability to fetch and display within the web interface the name of the devices on the bus, it was more distracting than useful.

Of course, we took the opportunity to introduce a new bug feature as well: support of JSONP to the web API.

We tested under several configurations with OS X 10.6 and 10.7, XP SP3 and W7 64bits using the latest of the following browsers when applicable : Safari 5.1, Firefox 6, Chrome 13, IE 8 & IE 9.
Everything works but for a reason we’re still investigating, sometimes IE9 on W7 and Chrome on XP cannot load the Web Interface and display the “javascript not enabled” page.
For IE 9, the workaround is to use IE8 mode. For Chrome, disabling and enabling javascript and reloading the page several times seems to help.

Please help yourself to the firmware and release notes, and enjoy !
