I would like to see integration of your IR
Commander.  You have software for using the
VCR commander and IR commander products as a
universal remote which can be found here:
http://www.x10.com/products/ux17a_bj2.htm

This should be integrated into AHPro for
home theatre control in macros and timers.
I wouldn't mind using my TV as an alarm
clock or have my TV, Stereo and DVD player
come and have my lights dim for a movie with
the touch of a single button.  Does anyone
else want to see this?

I would like to see timers that could be set
for any length of time rather than the 4
hour limit.

I agree with Bill H. A voice module would  have numerous uses. The voice module should be cabable of speaking as well as executing voice commands. It would be nice to be able to have my motion sensors, when activated, announce were the motion is without having to run third party software.

This is kind of late I know, but here are a few ideas:

1) Plug-in to configure and trigger extended code groups (scenes) in the LM14A and Leviton’s 6381 wall switch.

2) Configure 3rd party modules.

3) Hooks to link 3rd party Plug-ins.

X10pro,

I would like to see capability in AHP to use wired PTZ cameras. Things that use the pelco D protocol and communicate via RS-485. There are a lot of those cameras out there and is sucks to have to buy a DVR controller to do the same thing that AHP does with its cameras.

Ability to add third-paty modules, especially SmartHome.

Not sure what you mean here Roger  ??? Could you explain! :)
AHP will start a third party Plug-in from a macro and most don't need AHP running to work!

I want to be able to add pull-down menu items to the AHP user interface which call 3rd party programs (or DLL calls).  For example I wrote a program which will configure SmartHome Modules with my CM15A.  I would like to be able to run that program from the AHP interface.  I guess a macro would kind of work, but it isn't the prettiest solution.

Time to get AHP into the Twenty First Century most moden devices won't work with X10 modules. This is especialy true for Audio video devices!
Adding a plugin for the Ir commander is most needed after all the web page for it says it is "NEW" it isn't
nor is the ir commander software! Adding a plugin for this would give us back some of those items to control remotely! ;) :) ;D
