Version 1.3 should be showing up for you in iTunes. No other major improvements have been noted at this time. We’ll update this post when we get the release notes.
*edit* Click the more button for the full list of functionality.
A new version (1.3) of the iPad app is available today (June 22, 2010) that includes full Rhapsody functionality. We hope to have everything except Apple TV/iTunes completed by the end of June.
This version (1.3) of the Control4 My Home for iPad supports the following functionality:
- Rhapsody
- Lights, lighting scenes, all lights, and all lighting scenes
- Thermostat for the room you’re in (including “all tstat”)
- Security system control (sensors are not in this release)
- Web cams
- Digital audio library
- DVD drivers
- VCR drivers
- Media player drivers
- TV drivers
- Satellite drivers
- Disc changer drivers
- Cable drivers
- Now playing information
- Zone management
- Custom buttons
- Dedicated mode (this is under More -> Preferences. It allows the user to keep the app open & WiFi connection active so the iPad can act more like a dedicated Control4 touch screen.)
- Demo mode (this is under More -> Preferences. It loads a demo project so you can demonstrate the functionality without being connected to a Director. You must turn this off in order to connect to a Director)
- TV channels
- Movie browsing, meta data, artwork
There’s still a few things to be finished for the app, as seen below – don’t panic if these don’t work just yet, as development is continuing and an update should be posted soon.
- Tuner drivers
- Radio stations
- House Contacts/Sensors
- Comfort controls
- Apple TV & iTunes
- iPod dock
- Wake up
Also, for remote access, the following ports must be forwarded on the router to the IP address of the Control4 controller running Director:
-5020 & 5021 are the control ports
-5555 is the Rhapsody port
-80 is the artwork port

It is much more secure and easier to manage to use a VPN rather than port forwarding.
