I'm certainly not one to be an apologist for HomeSeer, (that's Rupps job ) however in their defense I did not read in any of the forums that they were not going to "ever" get to this or stop supporting it, in their own time of course. It may not come at the pace that some would want but this is HomeSeer and they have their own agenda and priority list. I'm sorry to say that audio/video is on the bottom of that list as far as I can tell, music especially.
My personal opinion is they do a fairly amazing job, considering how short staffed they are. I believe the company to be at a decision point as far as staffing goes, either expand and get things working and make happy customers who generate new customers or leave it the way it is. I'm sorry to say it's pretty obvious the way that's going right now, you can see the indicators all over the board in any almost any thread about a HomeSeer branded plug-in. Right now their only saving grace is that the HomeSeer core works very well, depending on what plug-ins you need to run but as time goes on and other HA packages get out of beta or come on-line they could very well have the kind of competition they don't have today, that time is not far off I fear. As someone who wants HomeSeer to succeed I hope they make the right choices for their business and their customers.
